Subject: [PATCH RFC 8/9] ARM: socfpga: Map the GIC CPU registers as MT_DEVICE_NS

From: Marek Vasut <marex@...x.de>

Statically map the SoCFPGA's memory space at PA 0xfff00000 +1MiB to 0xff000000
and set type of this VA to be MT_DEVICE_NS. This PA contains the SoCFPGA's GIC
CPU registers at offset +0xec100. This area is right past VMALLOC_END and well
below the optional start of per-CPU highmem entries. We can thus use this area
to place our mapping here and be sure it's not in anyone's way.

All accesses to VA 0xff000000 generate non-secure accesses on the bus and we
can leverage this property to generate non-secure read of the GIC INTACK (IAR)
register. This non-secure read will never return an FIQ interrupt number.
