Message-ID<tOXh8-1Ba-13@gated-at.bofh.it>
 Clearing TTBCR.T1SZ explicitly when kernel runs on a configuration of
PHYS_OFFSET > PAGE_OFFSET.
 Reading TTBCR in early boot stage might returns the value of the
previous kernel's configuration, especially in case of kexec. For
example, if normal kernel (first kernel) had run on a configuration
of PHYS_OFFSET <= PAGE_OFFSET and crash kernel (second kernel) is
running on a configuration PHYS_OFFSET > PAGE_OFFSET, which can happen
because it depends on the reserved area for crash kernel, reading
TTBCR and using the value without clearing TTBCR.T1SZ might risky
because the value doesn't have a reset value for TTBCR.T1SZ.

Hmm, but isn't that also strictly true of all the other fields we're
ORing TTB_FLAGS_* into? Given that this is initial setup, I wonder
whether we need to care about the previous TTBCR value at all - is there
any reason for not simply building up the value we want from scratch?

Robin.

Your idea seems better.
I'll send a new patch to build TTBCR from scratch without reading it for the initial value.

Russell, do you have any opinion ?

Thank toy for the review.
