[PATCH v4 3/6] arm64: head: record the MMU state at primary entry

Tue Oct 18 04:04:38 PDT 2022


Prepare for being able to deal with primary entry with the MMU and
caches enabled, by recording whether or not we entered with the MMU on
in register x19.

While at it, add disable_mmu_workaround macro invocations to
init_kernel_el, as its manipulation of SCTLR_ELx may amount to disabling
of the MMU after subsequent patches.
