From: Julien Grall <jgrall@xxxxxxxxxx>

The sequence to enable the MMU on arm32 is quite complex as we may need
to jump to a temporary mapping to map Xen.

Recently, we had one bug in the logic (see f5a49eb7f8b3 ("xen/arm32:
head: Add mising isb in switch_to_runtime_mapping()") and it was
a pain to debug because there are no logging.

In order to improve the logging in the MMU switch we need to add
support for early printk while running on the identity mapping
and also on the temporary mapping.

For the identity mapping, we have only the first page of Xen mapped.
So all the strings should reside in the first page. For that purpose
a new macro PRINT_ID is introduced.

For the temporary mapping, the fixmap is already linked the temporary
area (and so does the UART). So we just need to update the register
storing the UART address (i.e. r11) to point to the UART temporary
mapping.

Take the opportunity to introduce mov_w_on_cond in order to
conditionally execute mov_w and avoid branches.

I think that patch no.1 should move the mapping into init_uart right away. This 
way
the issue I mentioned in that patch will be fixed and there will be no need to 
remove the code
introduced just before.

Correct. I folded the fix in the wrong patch.

This is causing a boot hang in a configuration where there is no need for

In that case, we are still in 1:1 map and should use PRINT_ID

Good point. I will switch.
