The problem is that virt_to_phys() gives bogus answer for a

work with the ARM virt_to_phys().  I can get a physical address from
mtd->point() with a patch I dropped a little while back.
Is there a chance virt_to_phys() can be fixed on arm? It looks like a simple page table walk to me. If not, I would prefer to have get_xip_address return a physical address over having to split the code path here. S390 has a 1:1 mapping for xip mappings, thus it would'nt be a big change for us.
