CPU_SUPPORTS_UNCACHED_ACCELERATED was introduced when kernel can't handle
writecombine remap well. Nowadays drivers can try writecombine remap by
themselves so this function is nolonger needed.

Both pgtable_cache_init() and pgd_cache_init() are used to initialize kmem
cache for page table allocations on several architectures that do not use
PAGE_SIZE tables for one or more levels of the page table hierarchy.

Most architectures do not implement these functions and use __weak default
NOP implementation of pgd_cache_init().  Since there is no such default
for pgtable_cache_init(), its empty stub is duplicated among most
architectures.

Rename the definitions of pgd_cache_init() to pgtable_cache_init() and
drop empty stubs of pgtable_cache_init().

Currently areas where we need to determine whether the TLB is R3k-style
need to check for either of CONFIG_CPU_R3000 || CONFIG_CPU_TX39XX.

Introduce a new CONFIG_CPU_R3K_TLB &amp; select it from both of the above,
allowing us to simplify checks for R3k-style TLBs by only checking for
this new Kconfig option.

<title>MIPS: use the generic get_user_pages_fast code</title>

The mips code is mostly equivalent to the generic one, minus various
bugfixes and an arch override for gup_fast_permitted.

Note that this defines ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL for mips as mips has
pte_special and pte_mkspecial implemented and used in the existing gup
code.  They are no-op stubs, though which makes me a little unsure if this
is really right thing to do.

Note that this also adds back a missing cpu_has_dc_aliases check for
__get_user_pages_fast, which the old code was only doing for
get_user_pages_fast.  This clearly looks like an oversight, as any
condition that makes get_user_pages_fast unsafe also applies to
__get_user_pages_fast.

<title>MIPS: Fix set_pte() for Netlogic XLR using cmpxchg64()</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 46011e6ea392 ("MIPS: Make set_pte() SMP safe.") introduced an
open-coded version of cmpxchg() within set_pte(), that always operated
on a value the size of an unsigned long. That is, it used ll/sc
instructions when CONFIG_32BIT=y or lld/scd instructions when
CONFIG_64BIT=y.

This was broken for configurations in which pte_t is larger than an
unsigned long (with the exception of XPA configurations which have a
different implementation of set_pte()), because we no longer update the
whole PTE. Indeed commit 46011e6ea392 ("MIPS: Make set_pte() SMP safe.")
notes:

&gt; The case of CONFIG_64BIT_PHYS_ADDR &amp;&amp; CONFIG_CPU_MIPS32 is *not*
&gt; handled.

In practice this affects Netlogic XLR/XLS systems including
nlm_xlr_defconfig.

Commit 82f4f66ddf11 ("MIPS: Remove open-coded cmpxchg() in set_pte()")
then replaced this open-coded version of cmpxchg() with an actual call
to cmpxchg(). Unfortunately the configurations mentioned above then fail
to build because cmpxchg() can only operate on values 32 bits or smaller
in size, resulting in:

  arch/mips/include/asm/cmpxchg.h:166:11: error:
    call to '__cmpxchg_called_with_bad_pointer' declared with
    attribute error: Bad argument size for cmpxchg

One option that would fix the build failure &amp; restore the previous
behaviour would be to cast the pte pointer to a pointer to unsigned
long, so that cmpxchg() would operate on just 32 bits of the PTE as it
has been since commit 46011e6ea392 ("MIPS: Make set_pte() SMP safe.").
That feels like an ugly hack though, and the behaviour of set_pte() is
likely a little broken.

Instead we take advantage of the fact that the affected configurations
already know at compile time that the CPU will support 64 bits (ie. have
hardcoded cpu_has_64bits in cpu-feature-overrides.h) in order to allow
cmpxchg64() to be used in these configurations. set_pte() then makes use
of cmpxchg64() when necessary.

set_pte() contains an open coded version of cmpxchg() - it atomically
replaces the buddy pte's value if it is currently zero. Simplify the
code considerably by just using cmpxchg() instead of reinventing it.

<title>MIPS: Avoid using .set mips0 to restore ISA</title>

We currently have 2 commonly used methods for switching ISA within
assembly code, then restoring the original ISA.

  1) Using a pair of .set push &amp; .set pop directives. For example:

     .set	push
     .set	mips32r2
     &lt;some_insn&gt;
     .set	pop

  2) Using .set mips0 to restore the ISA originally specified on the
     command line. For example:

     .set	mips32r2
     &lt;some_insn&gt;
     .set	mips0

Unfortunately method 2 does not work with nanoMIPS toolchains, where the
assembler rejects the .set mips0 directive like so:

     Error: cannot change ISA from nanoMIPS to mips0

In preparation for supporting nanoMIPS builds, switch all instances of
method 2 in generic non-platform-specific code to use push &amp; pop as in
method 1 instead. The .set push &amp; .set pop is arguably cleaner anyway,
and if nothing else it's good to consistently use one method.

MIPS doesn't support hardware dirty/accessed bits.
generic_pmdp_establish() is suitable in this case.

In response to compile breakage introduced by a series that added the
pud_write helper to x86, Stephen notes:

    did you consider using the other paradigm:

    In arch include files:
    #define pud_write       pud_write
    static inline int pud_write(pud_t pud)
     .....

    Then in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:

    #ifndef pud_write
    tatic inline int pud_write(pud_t pud)
    {
            ....
    }
    #endif

    If you had, then the powerpc code would have worked ... ;-) and many
    of the other interfaces in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h are
    protected that way ...

Given that some architecture already define pmd_write() as a macro, it's
a net reduction to drop the definition of __HAVE_ARCH_PMD_WRITE.
