      arm64: fixmap: fix missing sub-page offset for earlyprintk · f774b7d1
      Marc Zyngier authored
      
      Commit d57c33c5 (add generic fixmap.h) added (among other
      similar things) set_fixmap_io to deal with early ioremap of devices.
      
      More recently, commit bf4b558e (arm64: add early_ioremap support)
      converted the arm64 earlyprintk to use set_fixmap_io. A side effect of
      this conversion is that my virtual machines have stopped booting when
      I pass "earlyprintk=uart8250-8bit,0x3f8" to the guest kernel.
      
      Turns out that the new earlyprintk code doesn't care at all about
      sub-page offsets, and just assumes that the earlyprintk device will
      be page-aligned. Obviously, that doesn't play well with the above example.
      
      Further investigation shows that set_fixmap_io uses __set_fixmap instead
      of __set_fixmap_offset. A fix is to introduce a set_fixmap_offset_io that
      uses the latter, and to remove the superflous call to fix_to_virt
      (which only returns the value that set_fixmap_io has already given us).
      
      With this applied, my VMs are back in business. Tested on a Cortex-A57
      platform with kvmtool as platform emulation.

      Many architectures provide an asm/fixmap.h which defines support for
      compile-time 'special' virtual mappings which need to be made before
      paging_init() has run.  This support is also used for early ioremap on
      x86.  Much of this support is identical across the architectures.  This
      patch consolidates all of the common bits into asm-generic/fixmap.h
      which is intended to be included from arch/*/include/asm/fixmap.h.
