If the bootloader uses the long descriptor format and jumps to
kernel decompressor code, TTBCR may not be in a right state.
Before enabling the MMU, it is required to clear the TTBCR.PD0
field to use TTBR0 for translation table walks.

The 'commit dbece45894d3a ("ARM: 7501/1: decompressor:
reset ttbcr for VMSA ARMv7 cores")' does the reset of TTBCR.N, but
doesn't consider all the bits for the size of TTBCR.N.

Clear TTBCR.PD0 field and reset all the three bits of TTBCR.N to
indicate the use of TTBR0 and the correct base address width.

There's no need to single-quote the commit part of this sentence.

Adding a properly formatted Fixes: line here would be a bonus if we
need to backport it to stable trees.

Provided this is correct (I've not checked, I'd like an ack from one of
the ARM people, and I'd prefer to see a tested-by as well), and the above
points are addressed, it can be dropped into the patch system.  Thanks.
