Hi,

ARM core fixes required to bring up !MMU Kernel on v7 Cortex-A.

This was done on top of Vladimir Murzin's !MMU multiplatform series[1].

Platform used was Cortex-A9, AM437x IDK.

Kernel reached the stage of invoking user space init & panicked, though
it could not reach till prompt for want of user space executables, it
went as much as Kernel can help by itself. But that is an issue
independent of the Kernel, hence posting the series (also thought of
at least posting the existing patches b'fore merge window starts).

So far i have not come across a toolchain (or a way to create toolchain)
to create !MMU user space executables for Cortex-A. It is being hoped
that Cortex-R toolchain might help here (Thanks Arnd). This is being
looked into.

multi_v7_defconfig was used & all platforms except TI OMAP/AM/DM/DRA &
Freescale i.MX family was deselected. ARM_MPU option was disabled as
Vladimir had given an early warning. DRAM_BASE was set to 0x80000000.
During the course of bringup, futex was causing issues, hence FUTEX was
removed. L1 & L2 caches were disabled in config. High vectors were
disabled & vectors were made to remap to base of RAM. An additional OMAP
specific change to avoid one ioremap was also required.

2/2th patch has been sticked with RFC label, as, though it works, it
might have to be made robust so as to not cause issue on other v7-A's
upon trying to do !MMU (this won't affect normal MMU boot), or
specifically where security extensions are not enabled. Also effect
of hypervisor extension also need to be considered. Please let know if
any better ways to handle this.

Boot logs at the end.
