Multicore MIPSes without I/D hardware coherency suffered from a race
condition in the page fault handler. The page table entry was
published before any pending lazy D-cache flush was committed, hence
it allowed execution of stale page cache data by other VPEs in the
system.
To make the cache handling safe we need to perform flushing already in
the set_pte_at function. MIPSes without coherent I-caches can get a
small increase in flushes due to the unavailability of the execute
flag in set_pte_at.
[ralf@linux-mips.org: outlining set_pte_at() saves a good k in a test
build, so I moved its definition from pgtable.h to cache.c.]

Add initialisation for Memory Accessibility Attribute Registers. Generic
code cannot know the platform-specific requirements with regards to
speculative accesses, so it simply calls a platform_maar_init function
which platforms with MAARs are expected to implement by calling the
provided write_maar_pair function & returning the number of MAAR pairs
used. A weak default implementation will simply use no MAAR pairs. Any
present but unused MAAR pairs are then marked invalid, effectively
disabling them.
The end result of this patch is that MAARs are all marked invalid, until
platforms implement the platform_maar_init function.

Use the regular tlb_do_page_fault_0 (no write) handler to handle
the RI and XI exceptions. Also skip the RI/XI validation check
on TLB load handler since it's redundant when the CPU has
unique RI/XI exceptions.

The Hardware Page Table Walker aims to speed up TLB refill exceptions
by handling them in the hardware level instead of having a software
TLB refill handler. However, a TLB refill exception can still be
thrown in certain cases such as, synchronus exceptions, or address
translation or memory errors during the HTW operation. As a result of
which, HTW must not be considered a complete replacement for the TLB
refill software handler, but rather a fast-path for it.
For HTW to work, the PWBase register must contain the task's page
global directory address so the HTW will kick in on TLB refill
exceptions.
Due to HTW being a separate engine embedded deep in the CPU pipeline,
we need to restart the HTW everytime a PTE changes to avoid HTW
fetching a old entry from the page tables. It's also necessary to
restart the HTW on context switches to prevent it from fetching a
page from the previous process. Finally, since HTW is using the
entryhi register to write the translations to the TLB, it's necessary
to stop the HTW whenever the entryhi changes (eg for tlb probe
perations) and enable it back afterwards.
== Performance ==
The following trivial test was used to measure the performance of the
HTW. Using the same root filesystem, the following command was used
to measure the number of tlb refill handler executions with and
without (using 'nohtw' kernel parameter) HTW support. The kernel was
modified to use a scratch register as a counter for the TLB refill
exceptions.
find /usr -type f -exec ls -lh {} \;
HTW Enabled:
TLB refill exceptions: 12306
HTW Disabled:
TLB refill exceptions: 17805

Commit 1d40cfcd3442a53e98468cdb3e6d4d9a568d76cf

Avoid SMP cacheflushes. This is a minor optimization of startup but
will also avoid smp_call_function from doing stupid things when called
from a CPU that is not yet marked online.
missed an appropriate cache flush of TLB refill handler because that time it was
at fixed location CAC_BASE. After years the refill handler in EBASE vector
is not at that location and can be allocated in some another memory and needs
I-cache sync as other TLB exception vectors.
Besides that, the new function - local_flash_icache_range() was introduced
to avoid SMP cacheflushes.

We check that the struct vm_area_struct pointer vma is NULL and then
dereference it a few lines below. The intent was to make sure vma is
not NULL but this is not necessary since the bug pre-dates GIT history
and seem to never have caused a problem. The tlb-4k and tlb-8k versions
of local_flush_tlb_page() don't bother checking if vma is NULL, also
vma is dereferenced before being passed to local_flush_tlb_page(),
thus it is safe to remove this NULL check.

In commit 2c8c53e28f1 (MIPS: Optimize TLB handlers for Octeon CPUs)
build_r4000_tlb_refill_handler() is modified. But it doesn't compatible
with the original code in HUGETLB case. Because there is a copy & paste
error and one line of code is missing. It is very easy to produce a bug
with LTP's hugemmap05 test.

Currently hugepage migration is available for all archs which support
pmd-level hugepage, but testing is done only for x86_64 and there're
bugs for other archs. So to avoid breaking such archs, this patch
limits the availability strictly to x86_64 until developers of other
archs get interested in enabling this feature.
Simply disabling hugepage migration on non-x86_64 archs is not enough to
fix the reported problem where sys_move_pages() hits the BUG_ON() in
follow_page(FOLL_GET), so let's fix this by checking if hugepage
migration is supported in vma_migratable().

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"At over 200 commits, covering almost all supported architectures, this
was a pretty active cycle for KVM. Changes include:
- a lot of s390 changes: optimizations, support for migration, GDB
support and more
- ARM changes are pretty small: support for the PSCI 0.2 hypercall
interface on both the guest and the host (the latter acked by
Catalin)
- initial POWER8 and little-endian host support
- support for running u-boot on embedded POWER targets
- pretty large changes to MIPS too, completing the userspace
interface and improving the handling of virtualized timer hardware
- for x86, a larger set of changes is scheduled for 3.17. Still, we
have a few emulator bugfixes and support for running nested
fully-virtualized Xen guests (para-virtualized Xen guests have
always worked). And some optimizations too.
The only missing architecture here is ia64. It's not a coincidence
that support for KVM on ia64 is scheduled for removal in 3.17"
