I'm sure this is far too late, but for posterity I've rebased patch 4
below atop of pathes 1 & 2 as queued in the arm64 for-next/core branch,
without patch 3. It builds cleanly, and I've given it a spin on
Juno.

Will, I guess I should rebase and resend this after we hit v4.7-rc1?

Thanks,
Mark.

Subject: [PATCH] arm64: mm: dump: make page table dumping reusable

For debugging purposes, it would be nice if we could export page tables
other than the swapper_pg_dir to userspace. To enable this, this patch
refactors the arm64 page table dumping code such that multiple tables
may be registered with the framework, and exported under debugfs.
