Background: I've implemented 1K/2K page tables for s390. These sub-page
page tables are required to properly support the s390 virtualization
instruction with KVM. The SIE instruction requires that the page tables
have 256 page table entries (pte) followed by 256 page status table entries
(pgste). The pgstes are only required if the process is using the SIE
instruction. The pgstes are updated by the hardware and by the hypervisor
for a number of reasons, one of them is dirty and reference bit tracking.
To avoid wasting memory the standard pte table allocation should return
1K/2K (31/64 bit) and 2K/4K if the process is using SIE.
Problem: Page size on s390 is 4K, page table size is 1K or 2K. That means
the s390 version for pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a struct
page. Trouble is that with the CONFIG_HIGHPTE feature on x86 pte_alloc_one
cannot return a pointer to a pte either, since that would require more than
32 bit for the return value of pte_alloc_one (and the pte * would not be
accessible since its not kmapped).
Solution: The only solution I found to this dilemma is a new typedef: a
pgtable_t. For s390 pgtable_t will be a (pte *) - to be introduced with a
later patch. For everybody else it will be a (struct page *). The
additional problem with the initialization of the ptl lock and the
NR_PAGETABLE accounting is solved with a constructor pgtable_page_ctor and
a destructor pgtable_page_dtor. The page table allocation and free
functions need to call these two whenever a page table page is allocated or
freed. pmd_populate will get a pgtable_t instead of a struct page pointer.
To get the pgtable_t back from a pmd entry that has been installed with
pmd_populate a new function pmd_pgtable is added. It replaces the pmd_page
call in free_pte_range and apply_to_pte_range.

Now that copy_to_user_page()/copy_from_user_page() are wired up, we
can drop the old __copy_xxx() implementations. Now that the page
colouring scheme has changed via kmap_coherent(), we can avoid the
flush in these specific helpers.

With the kmap_coherent() API in place, this is trivial to implement,
and lets us avoid the cache flush in certain cases.

As noted by David:
pte_page() is a macro defined as follows;
include/asm-sh/pgtable.h
#define pte_page(x) phys_to_page(pte_val(x)&PTE_PHYS_MASK)
include/asm-sh/page.h
#define phys_to_page(phys) (pfn_to_page(phys >> PAGE_SHIFT))
So as you can see the phys_to_page() macro doesn't wrap the 'phys'
parameter in parentheses so we end up with;
pte_val(x)&PTE_PHYS_MASK >> PAGE_SHIFT
Which is not what we wanted as '>>' has a higher precedence than bitwise
AND. I dug into the git repository and I believe this bug was added with
this commit (104b8deaa5);

The extended mode TLB requires both 64-bit PTEs and a 64-bit pgprot,
correspondingly, the PGD also has to be 64-bits, so fix that up.
The kernel and user permission bits really are decoupled in early
cuts of the silicon, which means that we also have to set corresponding
kernel permissions on user pages or we end up with user pages that the
kernel simply can't touch (!).
Finally, with those things corrected, really enable MMUCR.ME and
correct the PTEA value (this simply needs to be the upper 32-bits
of the PTE, with the size and protection bit encoding).

Slub currently defaults to 8-byte alignment for the kmalloc

case BYTES_PER_WORD == 4 already, so defining the minalign

This adds some preliminary support for the SH-X2 MMU, used by
newer SH-4A parts (particularly SH7785).
This MMU implements a 'compat' mode with SH-X MMUs and an
'extended' mode for SH-X2 extended features. Extended features
include additional page sizes (8kB, 4MB, 64MB), as well as the
addition of page execute permissions.
The extended mode attributes are placed in a second data array,
which requires us to switch to 64-bit PTEs when in X2 mode.
With the addition of the exec perms, we also overhaul the mmap
prots somewhat, now that it's possible to handle them more
intelligently.

Cleanup of page table allocators, using generic folded PMD and PUD
helpers. TLB flushing operations are moved to a more sensible spot.
The page fault handler is also optimized slightly, we no longer waste
cycles on IRQ disabling for flushing of the page from the ITLB, since
we're already under CLI protection by the initial exception handler.

There was only one board using this (hp690 specifically), and it just so
happens that it's only physically discontiguous at the "normal" P1 offset. If
we bump up the P1 offset, it's possible to hit a shadowed region of memory
where we suddenly become magically contiguous.
As people have been using this shadowed region workaround for quite some time
(and without any adverse effects), it's time to drop the left over discontig
bits that no longer have any practical use (it was always very much
hp690-centric to begin with).

A lot of the code in arch/*/mm/hugetlbpage.c is quite similar. This patch
attempts to consolidate a lot of the code across the arch's, putting the
combined version in mm/hugetlb.c. There are a couple of uglyish hacks in
order to covert all the hugepage archs, but the result is a very large
reduction in the total amount of code. It also means things like hugepage
lazy allocation could be implemented in one place, instead of six.
Tested, at least a little, on ppc64, i386 and x86_64.
Notes:
- this patch changes the meaning of set_huge_pte() to be more
analagous to set_pte()
- does SH4 need s special huge_ptep_get_and_clear()??

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
