Subject: ARM: update FIQ support for relocation of vectors
From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit e39e3f3ebfef03450cf7bfa7a974a8c61f7980c8 upstream.
FIQ should no longer copy the FIQ code into the user visible vector
page. Instead, it should use the hidden page. This change makes
that happen.
