Another big item to track for ARM:

P2M rework to follow break-before-make sequence.


What does break-before-make mean? I'm afraid I can't parse this
sentence. Is there any patch series that I can look at?

break-before-make is a 3 steps sequence the P2M code has to use to update the page tables under certain circumstances.
