Hi Andrew.

Resubmit. I once heard you say you wanted patches not against -mm but 
against mainline so this replaces "romsignature-checksum-cleanup.patch" 
in current -mm.

===
Remove the assumption that if the first page of a legacy ROM is mapped,
it'll all be mapped. This'll also stop people reading this code from
wondering if they're looking at a bug...
