Greetings Arm Maintainers,
I am wondering about the fix me in pgtable.h for define kern_addr_valid and how to set it to a correct
value as you state that this needs to be fixed as the defined macro is still 1. This is probably incorrect
and should be changed.
Thanks,
Nick

Dear Nick Krause,
Before you start coding - do you have necessary ARM-based hardware to
test your changes?

I don't have any hardware to test this over, however I can emulate a
arm system over qemu if needed.
I was just trying to help out if we need hardware I can't test and
again I am sorry for the terrible patches.
It was never my goal to be a nuisance.

It's not clear to me how valuable fixing kern_addr_valid would actually
be for arm. It seems to be used in exactly one place, fs/proc/kcore.c
and the associated Kconfig is explicitly marked if !ARM. Nearly all
other archs minus x86, arm64 and sparc are in the same boat as well.
Thanks,
Laura

Laura,
Can we remove it then as it seems that it's not needed at all.

There is a fix me message I am hitting with cscope on line 317 of this
file about #define kern_addr_valid(addr) (1) not being correct.
I am wondering what value this should be set to. Thanks for the advice
so I can remove this fix me from the kernel.
Cheers Nick
