Nice, I hadn't thought of that. On reflection, though, I don't agree that
it's "exactly what it is for" -- the ID register talks about the supported
stage-2 page-sizes, whereas we want to advertise the one page size that
we're currently using. In other words, it's important that we only ever
populate one of the fields and I wonder if that could bite us in future
somehow?

Up to you, you've definitely got a better feel for this than me.

Hmm, good point. Does that mean we should be refcounting the stage-2?
Otherwise if we do something like:

	foo = ioremap(page, 0x100);
	bar = ioremap(page+0x100, 0x100);
	iounmap(foo);

then bar will break. Or did I miss something in the series?
