Add __acpi_unmap_table function for ARM and invoke it at acpi_os_unmap_memory
to make sure the related fixmap has been cleared before using it for a
different mapping.

You have a stray space here after "*"

Maybe the initialization can be moved to the declaration?

How can it possibly be that this is needed for Arm only?

How can it possibly be correct to call both vunmap() and your new
function? And how is this, having jsut an Arm implementation,
going to compile for x86? Seeing that x86 gets away without this,
may I suggest that you look at the x86 code to see why that is,
and then consider whether the same model makes sense for Arm? And
if it doesn't, check whether the new Arm model would make sense
to also use on x86?

Best noticable here, your mailer has mangled the patch. The way
of this mangling makes me guess you used Thunderbird to send the
patch, in which case you'll need to adjust its settings (iirc it
was mailnews.wraplength which needed setting to zero).

Let me give some background (I will let Wei dealing with the rest of the 
patches). On Arm, I made the decision to forbid a mapping replacement in 
the page-tables code. This means that if you want to re-use the same 
fixmap, then you need to clear it first.

The reason for the requirement is quite simple. On Arm, you need to use 
a break-before-make sequence any time you replace a valid entry by 
another valid entry (there is a couple of case where it is not needed).

As the sequence name suggests it, we will have a small window where the 
virtual address will point to nothing. This may result to an abort if 
another CPU is accessing the address at the same time.

In the fixmap case below, this should never happen. But now imagine 
shattering a superpage...

So rather than trying to allow in some cases the modification of a 
mapping, we just forbid for everything but permission changes. This is 
much simpler to reason and a much saner interface.

Similarly, I think this is much saner to call have a clear_fixmap() for 
each set_fixmap().

Cheers,

Sorry, I thought acpi_os_unmap_memory is specific for ARM.
Just now I checked map_pages_to_xen in arch/x86/mm.c and did not find any place
to forbid the modification of a mapping. Maybe clearing mapping before modification
is not necessary for X86. Do you think is it OK to add a empty stub function
for the other cases except ARM and invoke it after vunmap as following?

Yes, I used Thunderbird and did not set that :(.

No. This is still doing two unmaps when system_state >= SYS_STATE_boot.
At the very least this need to go in an "else" block to the existing
if(). There also shouldn't be a blanket empty stub function. Even on
x86 it would be _better_ (albeit not strictly needed) if the unmap
indeed zapped the fixmap mappings. And for potential future ports it
would be outright dangerous to have such an empty stub.

Got it.
I will check how to clear the fixmap on X86.
