powerpc/mm: add _PAGE_HASHPTE similar to 4K hash
We don't need to update linux page table entry with _PAGE_HASHPTE early in hash pte fault. A parallel pte update will loop via _PAGE_BUSY and look at _PAGE_HASHPTE for a required hpte flush only if _PAGE_BUSY is cleared. That ensures a pte update will wait for a parallel hpte insert to finish before looking at _PAGE_HASHPTE bit. To avoid further confusion drop setting _PAGE_HASHPTE in cmpxchg in __hash_page_4K. commit 41743a4e34f0 ("powerpc: Free a PTE bit on ppc64 with 64K pages") did similar change for 64K config Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
