ARM: idmap: use idmap_pgd when setting up mm for reboot
For soft-rebooting a system, it is necessary to map the MMU-off code with an identity mapping so that execution can continue safely once the MMU has been switched off. Currently, switch_mm_for_reboot takes out a 1:1 mapping from 0x0 to TASK_SIZE during reboot in the hope that the reset code lives at a physical address corresponding to a userspace virtual address. This patch modifies the code so that we switch to the idmap_pgd tables, which contain a 1:1 mapping of the cpu_reset code. This has the advantage of only remapping the code that we need and also means we don't need to worry about allocating a pgd from an atomic context in the case that the physical address of the cpu_reset code aliases with the virtual space used by the kernel.
