Patch series "mm: move core MM initialization to mm/mm_init.c", v2.
This set moves most of the core MM initialization to mm/mm_init.c.
This largely includes free_area_init() and its helpers, functions used at
boot time, mm_init() from init/main.c and some of the functions it calls.
Aside from gaining some more space before mm/page_alloc.c hits 10k lines,
this makes mm/page_alloc.c to be mostly about buddy allocator and moves
the init code out of the way, which IMO improves maintainability.
Besides, this allows to move a couple of declarations out of include/linux
and make them private to mm/.
And as an added bonus there a slight decrease in vmlinux size. For
tinyconfig and defconfig on x86 I've got
tinyconfig:
text data bss dec hex filename
853206 289376 1200128 2342710 23bf36 a/vmlinux
853198 289344 1200128 2342670 23bf0e b/vmlinux
defconfig:
text data bss dec hex filename
26152959 9730634 2170884 38054477 244aa4d a/vmlinux
26152945 9730602 2170884 38054431 244aa1f b/vmlinux
This patch (of 14):
Comment about fixrange_init() says that its called from pgtable_init()
while the actual caller is pagetabe_init().
Update comment to match the code.

The powerpc 32-bit implementation of pgtable has nice shortcuts for
accessing kernel PMD and PTE for a given virtual address. Make these
helpers available for all architectures.

Implement primitives necessary for the 4th level folding, add walks of p4d
level where appropriate, replace 5leve-fixup.h with pgtable-nop4d.h and
drop usage of __ARCH_USE_5LEVEL_HACK.

Nobody is maintaining SMTC anymore and there also seems to be no userbase.
Which is a pity - the SMTC technology primarily developed by Kevin D.
Kissell <[email protected]> is an ingenious demonstration for the MT
ASE's power and elegance.
Based on Markos Chandras <[email protected]> patch
https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/6719/ which while very similar did
no longer apply cleanly when I tried to merge it plus some additional
post-SMTC cleanup - SMTC was a feature as tricky to remove as it was to
merge once upon a time.

Having received another series of whitespace patches I decided to do this
once and for all rather than dealing with this kind of patches trickling
in forever.

Memory maps and addressing quirks are normally defined in <spaces.h>.
There are already three targets that need to override FIXADDR_TOP, and
others exist. This will be a cleaner approach than adding lots of
ifdefs in fixmap.h .

On an SMP system with cache aliases, the following sequence of events may
happen:
1) copy_user_highpage() runs on CPU0, invoking kmap_coherent() to create a
temporary mapping in the fixmap region
2) copy_page() starts on CPU0
3) CPU1 sends CPU0 an IPI asking CPU0 to run local_r4k_flush_cache_page()
4) CPU0 takes the interrupt, interrupting copy_page()
5) local_r4k_flush_cache_page() on CPU0 calls kmap_coherent() again
6) The second invocation of kmap_coherent() on CPU0 tries to use the
same fixmap virtual address that was being used by copy_user_highpage()
7) CPU0 throws a machine check exception for the TLB address conflict
Fixed by creating an extra set of fixmap entries for use in interrupt
handlers. This prevents fixmap VA conflicts between copy_user_highpage()
running in user context, and local_r4k_flush_cache_page() invoked from an
SMP IPI.

introduces the variable _page_cachable_default, which defaults to zero and.
is used to create the prototype PTE for __kmap_atomic in
arch/mips/mm/init.c:kmap_init before initialization in
arch/mips/mm/c-r4k.c:coherency_setup, so the default value of 0 will be
used as the CCA of kmap atomic pages which on many processors is not a
defined CCA value and may result in writes to kmap_atomic pages getting
corrupted. Debugged by Jon Fraser ([email protected]).
