The main purpose of this patchset is to dramatically reduce the time
spent in DTLB miss handler. This is achieved by:
1/ Mapping RAM with 8M pages
2/ Mapping IMMR with a fixed 512K page

Change in v7:
* Don't include x_block_mapped() from compilation in
arch/powerpc/mm/fsl_booke_mmu.c when CONFIG_FSL_BOOKE is not set
(reported by kbuild test robot)

Please don't apply it, for some reason the modification supposed to be in v7 didn't get in. I will submit v8. Sorry for the noise.

Christophe
