Subject: [PATCH v2] ARM64: mmu: implement mmu_disable completely in assembly
Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2025 12:10:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251212111021.2620877-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> (raw)
Splitting mmu_disable into two noinline function on a RK3568 leads to a
barebox crash, because the code has the implicit assumption that the
compiler won't generate memory accesses including spilling to stack.
We can't guarantee this in C code, so implement the procedure in
assembly.
While at it, drop mmu_early_disable(), which is unused, superfluous and
suffers from the same issue as old mmu_disable().
