Hi Greg, Sasha,
These patches were not marked with a Fixes: tag but they do fix booting ARM 32-bit platforms that have specific FDT placement and would cause boot failures like these:

Changes in v2:
- include "ARM: 9027/1: head.S: explicitly map DT even if it lives in the first physical section" as suggested by Ard.
Ard Biesheuvel (4): ARM: 9011/1: centralize phys-to-virt conversion of DT/ATAGS address ARM: 9012/1: move device tree mapping out of linear region ARM: 9020/1: mm: use correct section size macro to describe the FDT virtual address ARM: 9027/1: head.S: explicitly map DT even if it lives in the first physical section
