[PATCH 0/3] Type correctness cleanup for ARM64 MMU initialization

[Sam Edwards <cfsworks@gmail.com>]

Hello list,

This is a small series of type correctness and readability improvements for
ARM64's MMU initialization code. When I first encountered this code, the heavy
use of u64 to represent both virtual and physical addresses made it difficult
to understand where the demarcations were. I made most of the changes in this
series while troubleshooting a different problem (fixed in a separate patch) to
make that boundary a little clearer. I am submitting it now in the hopes that
this will improve maintainability and readability for others.

While nothing in this series represents a change in behavior, it is not merely
cosmetic: I believe these changes better align with the kernel's code
standards, type discipline, and common C idioms.

Happy Thursday,
Sam

  arm64: mm: Cast start/end markers to char *, not u64
  arm64: mm: Make map_fdt() return mapped pointer
  arm64: mm: Represent physical memory with phys_addr_t and
    resource_size_t
