metag: Memory management
Add memory management files for metag.
Meta's 32bit virtual address space is split into two halves:
- local (0x08000000-0x7fffffff): traditionally local to a hardware
thread and incoherent between hardware threads. Each hardware thread
has it's own local MMU table. On Meta2 the local space can be
globally coherent (GCOn) if the cache partitions coincide.
- global (0x88000000-0xffff0000): coherent and traditionally global
between hardware threads. On Meta2, each hardware thread has it's own
global MMU table.
The low 128MiB of each half is non-MMUable and maps directly to the
physical address space:
- 0x00010000-0x07ffffff: contains Meta core registers and maps SoC bus
- 0x80000000-0x87ffffff: contains low latency global core memories
Linux usually further splits the local virtual address space like this:
- 0x08000000-0x3fffffff: user mappings
- 0x40000000-0x7fffffff: kernel mappings
