[PATCH 1/2] ARM: mmu: inherit pte flags from pmd

From: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer at pengutronix.de>

When creating a 2nd level page table from a section inherit the flags
from the section rather than assuming the section was mapped cached
previously. This fixes creating a 2nd level pagetable when the section
was mapped differently than we expected.
