0ec8e7aa8f ARM: 7416/1: LPAE: Remove unused L_PTE_(BUFFERABLE|CACHEABLE) macros
These have already been removed from the classic MMU in favour of
L_PTE_MT_* macros.

da02877987 ARM: LPAE: Page table maintenance for the 3-level format
This patch modifies the pgd/pmd/pte manipulation functions to support
the 3-level page table format. Since there is no need for an 'ext'
argument to cpu_set_pte_ext(), this patch conditionally defines a
different prototype for this function when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE.

The patch also introduces the L_PGD_SWAPPER flag to mark pgd entries
pointing to pmd tables pre-allocated in the swapper_pg_dir and avoid
trying to free them at run-time. This flag is 0 with the classic page
table format.

dcfdae04bd ARM: LPAE: Introduce the 3-level page table format definitions
This patch introduces the pgtable-3level*.h files with definitions
specific to the LPAE page table format (3 levels of page tables).

Each table is 4KB and has 512 64-bit entries. An entry can point to a
40-bit physical address. The young, write and exec software bits share
the corresponding hardware bits (negated). Other software bits use spare
bits in the PTE.

The patch also changes some variable types from unsigned long or int to
pteval_t or pgprot_t.
