This patch modifies the initial page mapping functions in the following way:
During bootup the init, text and data pages will be mapped RWX and if
supported, with huge pages.
At final stage of the bootup, the kernel calls free_initmem() and then all
pages will be remapped either R-X (for text and read-only data) or RW- (for
data). The __init pages will be dropped.
This reflects the behaviour of the x86 platform.

LEVEL is a very common word, and now after many years it suddenly
clashed with another LEVEL define in the DRBD code.
Rename it to PA_ASM_LEVEL instead.

This patch updates the parisc huge TLB page support to use per-pagetable spinlocks.
This patch requires Mikulas' per-pagetable spinlock patch and the revised TLB
serialization patch from Helge and myself. With Mikulas' patch, we need to use
the per-pagetable spinlock for page table updates. The TLB lock is only used
to serialize TLB flushes on machines with the Merced bus.

PA-RISC uses a global spinlock to protect pagetable updates in the TLB
fault handlers. When multiple cores are taking TLB faults simultaneously,
the cache line containing the spinlock becomes a bottleneck.
This patch embeds the spinlock in the top level page directory, so that
every process has its own lock. It improves performance by 30% when
doing parallel compilations.
At least on the N class systems, only one PxTLB inter processor
broadcast can be active at any one time on the Merced bus. If a Merced
bus is found, this patch serializes the TLB flushes with the
pa_tlb_flush_lock spinlock.

There are only a couple of instructions that can function as a memory
barrier on parisc. Currently, we use the sync instruction as a memory
barrier when releasing a spinlock. However, the ldcw instruction is a
better barrier when we have a handy memory location since it operates in
the cache on coherent machines.
This patch updates the spinlock release code to use ldcw. I also
changed the "stw,ma" instructions to "stw" instructions as it is not an
adequate barrier.

TLB operations only need to be serialized on machines with the Merced
(Stretch) bus. The only machines in this category are L and N class, and
they require a 64-bit PA 2.0 kernel. On these machines, we use local TLB
purges in the tmpalias routines.
We don't need to serialize TLB purges on all other machines. Thus, the
lock/unlock code can be removed when CONFIG_PA20 is not defined.
Further, when CONFIG_PA20 is not defined, alternative patching converts
the TLB purges to local purges when PA 2.0 hardware has been detected.

The commit 1c30844d2dfe ("mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an
external fragmentation event occurs") breaks memory management on a
parisc c8000 workstation with this memory layout:
0) Start 0x0000000000000000 End 0x000000003fffffff Size 1024 MB
1) Start 0x0000000100000000 End 0x00000001bfdfffff Size 3070 MB
2) Start 0x0000004040000000 End 0x00000040ffffffff Size 3072 MB
With the patch 1c30844d2dfe, the kernel will incorrectly reclaim the
first zone when it fills up, ignoring the fact that there are two
completely free zones. Basiscally, it limits cache size to 1GiB.
The parisc kernel is currently using the DISCONTIGMEM implementation,
but isn't NUMA. Avoid this issue or strange work-arounds by switching to
the more commonly used SPARSEMEM implementation.

The idle task might have been allocated above 4GB. With the current code
we cannot access that memory because the CPU is still running in narrow
mode.
This was found on a J5000 machine and the patch is required to enable

"A one-liner to make our Radix MMU support depend on HUGETLB_PAGE. We

Then two fixes to our VFIO IOMMU code. The first is not a regression
but fixes the locking to avoid a user-triggerable deadlock.
The second does fix a regression since rc1, and depends on the first
fix. It makes it possible to run guests with large amounts of memory

This way, slhc_free() accepts what slhc_init() returns, whether that is
an error or not.
In particular, the pattern in sl_alloc_bufs() is
slcomp = slhc_init(16, 16);
...
slhc_free(slcomp);
for the error handling path, and rather than complicate that code, just
make it ok to always free what was returned by the init function.
That's what the code used to do before commit 4ab42d78e37a ("ppp, slip:
Validate VJ compression slot parameters completely") when slhc_init()
just returned NULL for the error case, with no actual indication of the
details of the error.
