Hmmm the whole series should be backported, it does not make sense to
move the dtb mapping and keep accessing it using its linear mapping
address since it could fail for the exact reason the relocation was
implemented in the first place and the relocation is wrong.
Maybe we should simply add a "Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" on all the patches?
