9e695d2ecc sparc64: Support transparent huge pages.
This is relatively easy since PMD's now cover exactly 4MB of memory.

Our PMD entries are 32-bits each, so we use a special encoding.  The
lowest bit, PMD_ISHUGE, determines the interpretation.  This is possible
because sparc64's page tables are purely software entities so we can use
whatever encoding scheme we want.  We just have to make the TLB miss
assembler page table walkers aware of the layout.

set_pmd_at() works much like set_pte_at() but it has to operate in two
page from a table of non-huge PTEs, so we have to queue up TLB flushes
based upon what mappings are valid in the PTE table.  In the second regime
we are going from huge-page to non-huge-page, and in that case we need
only queue up a single TLB flush to push out the huge page mapping.

We still have 5 bits remaining in the huge PMD encoding so we can very
likely support any new pieces of THP state tracking that might get added
in the future.

With lots of help from Johannes Weiner.

90f08e399d sparc: mmu_gather rework
Rework the sparc mmu_gather usage to conform to the new world order :-)

Sparc mmu_gather does two things:
 - tracks vaddrs to unhash
 - tracks pages to free

Split these two things like powerpc has done and keep the vaddrs
in per-cpu data structures and flush them on context switch.

The remaining bits can then use the generic mmu_gather.

27137e5285 sparc,sparc64: unify mm/
- move all sparc64/mm/ files to arch/sparc/mm/
- commonly named files are named _64.c
- add files to sparc/mm/Makefile preserving link order
- delete now unused sparc64/mm/Makefile
- sparc64 now finds mm/ in sparc
