Unfortunately this issue is still present in 2.1.  We fixed this

Just an aside, is there any reason why you cannot use 2.1?  
Do you have code or drivers which depend on 1.5.2?

Just making sure, is 0xa5100000 a physical address or a virtual address?
More generally, can you let us know what are you trying to achieve 
by mapping 6M?  We may be able to propose alternative solutions
that better suit your needs.
