<title>[ARM] 4644/2: fix flush_kern_tlb_range() in module space</title>

<content type='text'>
For kernel addresses between TASK_SIZE and PAGE_OFFSET,
flush_tlb_kern_range() does not work as would be expected.

The TLB invalidate works with a matching ASID, or on entries marked as
global.  The set_pte_at() macro marks addresses &gt;= PAGE_OFFSET as
global, but not addresses from TASK_SIZE to PAGE_OFFSET, which are
also kernel addresses.

The result is that the entries in this range are not actually
invalidated by flush_tlb_kern_range().

This patch instead marks addresses &gt;= TASK_SIZE as global.

Most architectures defined three macros, MK_IOSPACE_PFN(), GET_IOSPACE()
and GET_PFN() in pgtable.h.  However, the only callers of any of these
macros are in Sparc specific code, either in arch/sparc, arch/sparc64 or
drivers/sbus.

This patch removes the redundant macros from all architectures except
sparc and sparc64.

The PAGE_* user page protection macros don't take into account the
configured memory policy and other architecture specific bits like
the global/ASID and shared mapping bits. Instead of constants let
these depend on a variable fixed up at init just like PAGE_KERNEL.

L_PTE_ASID is not really required to be stored in every PTE, since we
can identify it via the address passed to set_pte_at().  So, create
set_pte_ext() which takes the address of the PTE to set, the Linux
PTE value, and the additional CPU PTE bits which aren't encoded in
the Linux PTE value.

The ARM XIP_KERNEL map created in devicemaps_init() is wrong.
The map.pfn is rounded down to an even 1MiB section boundary
which results in va/pa translations errors when XIP_PHYS_ADDR
starts on an odd 1MiB boundary and this causes the kernel to
hang.  This patch fixes ARM XIP_KERNEL translation errors for
the odd 1MiB XIP_PHYS_ADDR boundary case.

<title>[PATCH] Standardize pxx_page macros</title>

<content type='text'>
One of the changes necessary for shared page tables is to standardize the
pxx_page macros.  pte_page and pmd_page have always returned the struct
page associated with their entry, while pte_page_kernel and pmd_page_kernel
have returned the kernel virtual address.  pud_page and pgd_page, on the
other hand, return the kernel virtual address.

Shared page tables needs pud_page and pgd_page to return the actual page
structures.  There are very few actual users of these functions, so it is
simple to standardize their usage.

Since this is basic cleanup, I am submitting these changes as a standalone
patch.  Per Hugh Dickins' comments about it, I am also changing the
pxx_page_kernel macros to pxx_page_vaddr to clarify their meaning.
