Changelog:
v12:
	- A major change compared to previous version. Instead of using
	  contiguous VA range a copy of linear map is now used to perform
	  copying of segments during relocation as it was agreed in the
	  discussion of version 11 of this project.
	- In addition to using linear map, I also took several ideas from
	  James Morse to better organize the kexec relocation:
	  	1. skip relocation function entirely if that is not needed
		2. remove the PoC flushing function since it is not needed
		   anymore with MMU enabled.
v11:
	- Fixed missing KEXEC_CORE dependency for trans_pgd.c
	- Removed useless "if(rc) return rc" statement (thank you Tyler Hicks)
	- Another 12 patches were accepted into maintainer's get.
	  Re-based patches against:
	  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux.git
	  Branch: for-next/kexec
v10:
	- Addressed a lot of comments form James Morse and from  Marc Zyngier
	- Added review-by's
	- Synchronized with mainline

v9:	- 9 patches from previous series landed in upstream, so now series
	  is smaller
	- Added two patches from James Morse to address idmap issues for machines
	  with high physical addresses.
	- Addressed comments from Selin Dag about compiling issues. He also tested
	  my series and got similar performance results: ~60 ms instead of ~580 ms
	  with an initramfs size of ~120MB.
v8:
	- Synced with mainline to keep series up-to-date
v7:

	- arm64: kexec: configure trans_pgd page table for kexec
	  Added invalid entries into EL2 vector table
	  Removed KEXEC_EL2_VECTOR_TABLE_SIZE and KEXEC_EL2_VECTOR_TABLE_OFFSET
	  Copy relocation functions and table into separate pages
	  Changed types in kern_reloc_arg.
	  Split into three patches:
	  arm64: kexec: offset for relocation function
	  arm64: kexec: kexec EL2 vectors
	  arm64: kexec: configure trans_pgd page table for kexec
	- arm64: kexec: enable MMU during kexec relocation
	  Split into two patches:
	  arm64: kexec: enable MMU during kexec relocation
	  arm64: kexec: remove head from relocation argument
v6:
	- Sync with mainline tip
	- Added Acked's from Dave Young
v5:
	- Addressed comments from Matthias Brugger: added review-by's, improved
	  comments, and made cleanups to swsusp_arch_resume() in addition to
	  create_safe_exec_page().
	- Synced with mainline tip.
v4:
	- Addressed comments from James Morse.
	- Split "check pgd table allocation" into two patches, and moved to
	  the beginning of series  for simpler backport of the fixes.
	  Added "Fixes:" tags to commit logs.
	- Changed "arm64, hibernate:" to "arm64: hibernate:"
	- Added Reviewed-by's
	- Moved "add PUD_SECT_RDONLY" earlier in series to be with other
	  clean-ups
	- Added "Derived from:" to arch/arm64/mm/trans_pgd.c
	- Removed "flags" from trans_info
	- Changed .trans_alloc_page assumption to return zeroed page.
	- Simplify changes to trans_pgd_map_page(), by keeping the old
	  code.
	- Simplify changes to trans_pgd_create_copy, by keeping the old
	  code.
	- Removed: "add trans_pgd_create_empty"
	- replace init_mm with NULL, and keep using non "__" version of
	  populate functions.
v3:
	- Split changes to create_safe_exec_page() into several patches for
	  easier review as request by Mark Rutland. This is why this series
	  has 3 more patches.
	- Renamed trans_table to tans_pgd as agreed with Mark. The header
	  comment in trans_pgd.c explains that trans stands for
	  transitional page tables. Meaning they are used in transition
	  between two kernels.
v2:
	- Fixed hibernate bug reported by James Morse
	- Addressed comments from James Morse:
	  * More incremental changes to trans_table
	  * Removed TRANS_FORCEMAP
	  * Added kexec reboot data for image with 380M in size.

Enable MMU during kexec relocation in order to improve reboot performance.

If kexec functionality is used for a fast system update, with a minimal
downtime, the relocation of kernel + initramfs takes a significant portion
of reboot.

The reason for slow relocation is because it is done without MMU, and thus
not benefiting from D-Cache.

Performance data
----------------
For this experiment, the size of kernel plus initramfs is small, only 25M.
If initramfs was larger, than the improvements would be greater, as time
spent in relocation is proportional to the size of relocation.

Previously:
kernel shutdown	0.022131328s
relocation	0.440510736s
kernel startup	0.294706768s

Relocation was taking: 58.2% of reboot time

Now:
kernel shutdown	0.032066576s
relocation	0.022158152s
kernel startup	0.296055880s

Now: Relocation takes 6.3% of reboot time

Total reboot is x2.16 times faster.

With bigger userland (fitImage 380M), the reboot time is improved by 3.57s,
and is reduced from 3.9s down to 0.33s
