5cf0896721On XIP kernel, the name "va_kernel_pa_offset" is misleading: unlike "normal" kernel, it is not the virtual-physical address offset of kernel mapping, it is the offset of kernel mapping's first virtual address to first physical address in DRAM, which is not meaningful because the kernel's first physical address is not in DRAM. For XIP kernel, there are 2 different offsets because the read-only part of the kernel resides in ROM while the rest is in RAM. The offset to ROM is in kernel_map.va_kernel_xip_pa_offset, while the offset to RAM is not stored anywhere: it is calculated on-the-fly. Remove this confusing "va_kernel_pa_offset" and add "va_kernel_xip_data_pa_offset" as its replacement. This new variable is the offset of virtual mapping of the kernel's data portion to the corresponding physical addresses. With the introduction of this new variable, also rename va_kernel_xip_pa_offset -> va_kernel_xip_text_pa_offset to make it clear that this one is about the .text section.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
