Right. Unfortunately, I don't currently see a good way of handling such a case, other than having the C code at some point in the initialization re-create all the page tables that were set up by the assembly code. The basic problem here is that I need access to an information located in the Device Tree at a moment where the DT isn't available. So there are two options: 1/ make the DT available earlier, but it really seems impractical to manipulate the DT in the early assembly code, or 2/ make sure that the initialization done in the assembly code can be overridden later. What do you think?
