[RFC 01/23] ARM: LPAE: disable phys-to-virt patching on PAE systems

From: Cyril Chemparathy
Date: Mon Jul 23 2012 - 21:13:49 EST


From: Vitaly Andrianov <vitalya@xxxxxx>

The current phys-to-virt patching mechanism is broken on PAE machines with
64-bit physical addressing. This patch disables the patching mechanism in
such configurations.
