I'm not really sold on the usefulness of this feature. If you want hardware
validation features, I'd rather do something through debugfs, but your
use-case for warming the TLBs is intriguing. Do you have an example use-case
with performance figures?

We don't have writeq for arch/arm/.

Why?

Do you know what happened to Olav's patches to make this sort of code
generic?

Are you sure about this? The v2 spec says that is ATOSNS is clear then S1TS
is also clear.
