Based on discussion/debate on Cyril's generic code patching framework, we cooked up this series which basically trying to extend the existing v2p runtime patching for LPAE machines which can have physical memory beyond 4 GB. Keystone is one such ARM machine.

We think the 64 bit patching can be still made better than the proposed patch in the series and hence seeking expert comments from RMK, Nico and others. Last patch in the series added to just give perspective on how machine code will make use of the available bits from the series.

FYI I'm currently on vacation and only handling quick emails.

I'll review your series in a week or so.

NP. Thanks for the note.
