2f569afd9c CONFIG_HIGHPTE vs. sub-page page tables.
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.

054c51b436 [MIPS] Rename CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64 into KBUILD_64BIT_SYM32
This patch renames it for 3 reasons:

    - "CONFIG" pattern is used by Kconfig. Now this macro is
      no more defined by Kconfig but by Kbuild itself make this
      clear by translating "CONFIG" into "KBUILD".

    - "ELF32" word is improper because it is irrelevant to ELF
      format and it makes confusion with CONFIG_BOOT_ELF32. So
      translate it with SYM32.

    - Add "64BIT" part to make clear that this macro implies a
      64 bits kernel.

b1c65b3988 [MIPS] Fix PHYS_OFFSET for 64-bits kernels with 32-bits symbols
The current implementation of __pa() for 64-bits kernels with 32-bits
symbols is broken. In this configuration, we need 2 values for
PAGE_OFFSET, one in XKPHYS and the other in CKSEG0 space.

When the value in CKSEG0 space is used, it doesn't take into account
of PHYS_OFFSET. Even worse we can't redefine this value.

The patch restores CPHYSADDR() but in __pa()'s implementation because
it removes the need of 2 PAGE_OFFSET.

OTOH, CPHYSADDR() is quite bad when dealing with mapped kernels. So
this patch assumes there's no need to deal with such kernel in 64-bits
world.

6f284a2ce7 [MIPS] FLATMEM: introduce PHYS_OFFSET.
The old code was assuming that min_low_pfn was always 0. This
means that platforms having a big hole at their memory start
paid the price of wasting some memory for the allocation of
unused entries in mem_map[].

This patch prevents this waste.

It introduces PHYS_OFFSET define which is the start of the
physical memory and uses it wherever needed. Specially when
converting physical/virtual addresses into virtual/physical
ones.

Currently all platforms defines PHYS_OFFSET to 0.

99e3b942c6 [MIPS] page.h: remove __pa() usages.
__pa() was used by virt_to_page() and virt_addr_valid(). These
latter are used when kernel is initialised so __pa() is not
appropriate, we use virt_to_phys() instead.

Futhermore __pa() is going to take care of CKSEG0/XKPHYS
address mix for 64 bit kernels. This makes __pa() more complex
than virt_to_phys() and this extra work is not needed by
virt_to_page() and virt_addr_valid().

Eventually it consolidates virt_to_phys() prototype by making
its argument 'const'. this avoids some warnings that was due
to some virt_to_page() usages which pass const pointer.

MIPS asm/page.h unconditionally includes <asm-generic/memory_model.h>, which
doesn't exist in userspace.  Move an #endif /* __KERNEL__ */ down a few lines

Also, remove the broken definition of PAGE_SIZE which is never going to be
correct -- in the absence of PAGE_SIZE, non-broken userspace will fall back to
using sysconf() or getpagesize() instead.
