Yeah, this, disabling MMU before or having a tlb_invalidate() after
all seem to help. Your patch works fine, but it has a slight weirdness
in my case because early MMU code would mark OCRAM as cached and
regular MMU code wouldn't undo it without the call to
create_flat_mapping(), so I'd end up with slightly different memory
configuration depending on if EARLY_MMU is enabled or not. Other than
that it should work fine.
The main reason I chose to go "disable MMU" route is because that
follows what ARMv8 MMU code does, but I am perfectly happy with either
solution.
Thanks,
