This patch modifies the switch_mm() processor functions to use 64-bit
addresses.  We use u64 instead of phys_addr_t, in order to avoid having config
dependent register usage when calling into switch_mm assembly code.

The changes in this patch are primarily adjustments for registers used for
arguments to switch_mm.  The few processor definitions that did use the second
argument have been modified accordingly.

Arguments and calling conventions aside, this patch should be a no-op on v6
and non-LPAE v7 processors. 
NAK.

You just broke all big endian targets, LPAE or not.
