[PATCH v2 04/10] arm64: mm: Preserve existing table mappings when mapping DRAM

[Ard Biesheuvel]

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb at kernel.org>

Instead of blindly overwriting an existing table entry when mapping DRAM
regions, take care not to replace a pre-existing table entry with a
block entry. This permits the logic of mapping the kernel's linear alias
to be simplified in a subsequent patch.
