arm64: mm: Add support for folding PUDs at runtime

In order to support LPA2 on 16k pages in a way that permits non-LPA2
systems to run the same kernel image, we have to be able to fall back to
at most 48 bits of virtual addressing.

Falling back to 48 bits would result in a level 0 with only 2 entries,
which is suboptimal in terms of TLB utilization. So instead, let's fall
back to 47 bits in that case. This means we need to be able to fold PUDs
dynamically, similar to how we fold P4Ds for 48 bit virtual addressing
on LPA2 with 4k pages.

arm64: mm: Add definitions to support 5 levels of paging

Add the required types and descriptor accessors to support 5 levels of
paging in the common code. This is one of the prerequisites for
supporting 52-bit virtual addressing with 4k pages.

Note that this does not cover the code that handles kernel mappings or
the fixmap.

mm: consolidate pgtable_cache_init() and pgd_cache_init()

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().

arm64: switch to generic version of pte allocation

The PTE allocations in arm64 are identical to the generic ones modulo the
GFP flags.

Using the generic pte_alloc_one() functions ensures that the user page
tables are allocated with __GFP_ACCOUNT set.

The arm64 definition of PGALLOC_GFP is removed and replaced with
GFP_PGTABLE_USER for p[gum]d_alloc_one() for the user page tables and
GFP_PGTABLE_KERNEL for the kernel page tables. The KVM memory cache is now
using GFP_PGTABLE_USER.

The mappings created with create_pgd_mapping() are now using
GFP_PGTABLE_KERNEL.

The conversion to the generic version of pte_free_kernel() removes the NULL
check for pte.

The pte_free() version on arm64 is identical to the generic one and
can be simply dropped.

arm64: handle 52-bit addresses in TTBR

The top 4 bits of a 52-bit physical address are positioned at bits 2..5
in the TTBR registers. Introduce a couple of macros to move the bits
there, and change all TTBR writers to use them.

Leave TTBR0 PAN code unchanged, to avoid complicating it. A system with
52-bit PA will have PAN anyway (because it's ARMv8.1 or later), and a
system without 52-bit PA can only use up to 48-bit PAs. A later patch in
this series will add a kconfig dependency to ensure PAN is configured.

In addition, when using 52-bit PA there is a special alignment
requirement on the top-level table. We don't currently have any VA_BITS
configuration that would violate the requirement, but one could be added
in the future, so add a compile-time BUG_ON to check for it.

arm64: mm: move pgd_cache initialisation to pgtable_cache_init

Initialising the suppport for EFI runtime services requires us to
allocate a pgd off the back of an early_initcall. On systems where the
PGD_SIZE is smaller than PAGE_SIZE (e.g. 64k pages and 48-bit VA), the
pgd_cache isn't initialised at this stage, and we panic with a NULL
dereference during boot:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000

create_pgd_mapping+0x20/0x28

ret_from_fork+0x10/0x50

This patch fixes the problem by initialising the pgd_cache earlier, in
the pgtable_cache_init callback, which sounds suspiciously like what it
was intended for.

# 15670ef1 19-Nov-2014 Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>

arm64: pgalloc: consistently use PGALLOC_GFP

We currently allocate different levels of page tables with a variety of
differing flags, and the PGALLOC_GFP flags, intended for use when
allocating any level of page table, are only used for ptes in
pte_alloc_one. On x86, PGALLOC_GFP is used for all page table
allocations.

Currently the major differences are:

* __GFP_NOTRACK -- Needed to ensure page tables are always accessible in
the presence of kmemcheck to prevent recursive faults. Currently
kmemcheck cannot be selected for arm64.

* __GFP_REPEAT -- Causes the allocator to try to reclaim pages and retry
upon a failure to allocate.

* __GFP_ZERO -- Sometimes passed explicitly, sometimes zalloc variants
are used.

While we've no encountered issues so far, it would be preferable to be
consistent. This patch ensures all levels of table are allocated in the
same manner, with PGALLOC_GFP.

arm64: Align less than PAGE_SIZE pgds naturally

When the pgd size is smaller than PAGE_SIZE, pgd_alloc() uses kzalloc()
to save space. However, this is not always naturally aligned as required
by the architecture. This patch creates a kmem_cache for pgd allocations
with the correct alignment.

The current kernel configurations with 4K pages + 39-bit VA and 64K
pages + 42-bit VA use a full page for the pgd and are not affected. The
patch is required for 48-bit VA with 64K pages where the pgd is 512
bytes.

arm64: simplify pgd_alloc

Currently pgd_alloc has a redundant NULL check in its return path that
can be removed with no ill effects. With that removed it's also possible
to return early and eliminate the new_pgd temporary variable.

This patch applies said modifications, making the logic of pgd_alloc
correspond 1-1 with that of pgd_free.
