so __virt_to_phys will now work with a subset of the non-linear namely
all except vmalloced and ioremapped ones?

It will work for linear mapped memory and for the kernel image, which is
what it used to do. It's just that the relationship between the image
and the linear map is broken.

The same rules apply to x86, where their virt_to_phys eventually boils down to:

static inline unsigned long __phys_addr_nodebug(unsigned long x)
{
        unsigned long y = x - __START_KERNEL_map;

        /* use the carry flag to determine if x was < __START_KERNEL_map */
        x = y + ((x > y) ? phys_base : (__START_KERNEL_map - PAGE_OFFSET));

        return x;
}

Thanks,
Mark.
