Pull percpu fix from Dennis Zhou:
"This is just a single change to fix percpu depopulation. The code
relied on depopulation code written specifically for the free path and
relied on vmalloc to do the tlb flush lazily. As we're modifying the
backing pages during the lifetime of a chunk, we need to also flush
the tlb accordingly.
Guenter Roeck reported this issue in [1] on mips. I believe we just
happen to be lucky given the much larger chunk sizes on x86 and
consequently less churning of this memory"

Patch series "Speedup mremap on ppc64", v8.
This patchset enables MOVE_PMD/MOVE_PUD support on power. This requires
the platform to support updating higher-level page tables without updating
page table entries. This also needs to invalidate the Page Walk Cache on
architecture supporting the same.
This patch (of 3):
Architectures like ppc64 support faster mremap only with radix
translation. Hence allow a runtime check w.r.t support for fast mremap.

To avoid a race between rmap walk and mremap, mremap does
take_rmap_locks(). The lock was taken to ensure that rmap walk don't miss
a page table entry due to PTE moves via move_pagetables(). The kernel
does further optimization of this lock such that if we are going to find
the newly added vma after the old vma, the rmap lock is not taken. This
is because rmap walk would find the vmas in the same order and if we don't
find the page table attached to older vma we would find it with the new
vma which we would iterate later.
As explained in commit eb66ae030829 ("mremap: properly flush TLB before
releasing the page") mremap is special in that it doesn't take ownership
of the page. The optimized version for PUD/PMD aligned mremap also
doesn't hold the ptl lock. This can result in stale TLB entries as show
below.
This patch updates the rmap locking requirement in mremap to handle the race condition
explained below with optimized mremap::
Optmized PMD move
CPU 1 CPU 2 CPU 3
mremap(old_addr, new_addr) page_shrinker/try_to_unmap_one
mmap_write_lock_killable()
addr = old_addr
lock(pte_ptl)
lock(pmd_ptl)
pmd = *old_pmd
pmd_clear(old_pmd)
flush_tlb_range(old_addr)
*new_pmd = pmd
*new_addr = 10; and fills
TLB with new addr
and old pfn
unlock(pmd_ptl)
ptep_clear_flush()
old pfn is free.
Stale TLB entry
Optimized PUD move also suffers from a similar race. Both the above race
condition can be fixed if we force mremap path to take rmap lock.

pmd/pud_populate is the right interface to be used to set the respective
page table entries. Some architectures like ppc64 do assume that
set_pmd/pud_at can only be used to set a hugepage PTE. Since we are not
setting up a hugepage PTE here, use the pmd/pud_populate interface.

With TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD enabled the kernel can find huge PUD
entries. Add a helper to move huge PUD entries on mremap().
This will be used by a later patch to optimize mremap of PUD_SIZE aligned
level 4 PTE mapped address
This also make sure we support mremap on huge PUD entries even with
CONFIG_HAVE_MOVE_PUD disabled.

It is unsafe to allow saving of secretmem areas to the hibernation
snapshot as they would be visible after the resume and this essentially
will defeat the purpose of secret memory mappings.
Prevent hibernation whenever there are active secret memory users.

Introduce "memfd_secret" system call with the ability to create memory
areas visible only in the context of the owning process and not mapped not
only to other processes but in the kernel page tables as well.
The secretmem feature is off by default and the user must explicitly
enable it at the boot time.
Once secretmem is enabled, the user will be able to create a file
descriptor using the memfd_secret() system call. The memory areas created
by mmap() calls from this file descriptor will be unmapped from the kernel
direct map and they will be only mapped in the page table of the processes
that have access to the file descriptor.
Secretmem is designed to provide the following protections:
* Enhanced protection (in conjunction with all the other in-kernel
attack prevention systems) against ROP attacks. Seceretmem makes
"simple" ROP insufficient to perform exfiltration, which increases the
required complexity of the attack. Along with other protections like
the kernel stack size limit and address space layout randomization which
make finding gadgets is really hard, absence of any in-kernel primitive
for accessing secret memory means the one gadget ROP attack can't work.
Since the only way to access secret memory is to reconstruct the missing
mapping entry, the attacker has to recover the physical page and insert
a PTE pointing to it in the kernel and then retrieve the contents. That
takes at least three gadgets which is a level of difficulty beyond most
standard attacks.
* Prevent cross-process secret userspace memory exposures. Once the
secret memory is allocated, the user can't accidentally pass it into the
kernel to be transmitted somewhere. The secreremem pages cannot be
accessed via the direct map and they are disallowed in GUP.
* Harden against exploited kernel flaws. In order to access secretmem,
a kernel-side attack would need to either walk the page tables and
create new ones, or spawn a new privileged uiserspace process to perform
secrets exfiltration using ptrace.
The file descriptor based memory has several advantages over the
"traditional" mm interfaces, such as mlock(), mprotect(), madvise(). File
descriptor approach allows explicit and controlled sharing of the memory
areas, it allows to seal the operations. Besides, file descriptor based
memory paves the way for VMMs to remove the secret memory range from the
userspace hipervisor process, for instance QEMU. Andy Lutomirski says:
"Getting fd-backed memory into a guest will take some possibly major
work in the kernel, but getting vma-backed memory into a guest without
mapping it in the host user address space seems much, much worse."
memfd_secret() is made a dedicated system call rather than an extension to
memfd_create() because it's purpose is to allow the user to create more
secure memory mappings rather than to simply allow file based access to
the memory. Nowadays a new system call cost is negligible while it is way
simpler for userspace to deal with a clear-cut system calls than with a
multiplexer or an overloaded syscall. Moreover, the initial
implementation of memfd_secret() is completely distinct from
memfd_create() so there is no much sense in overloading memfd_create() to
begin with. If there will be a need for code sharing between these
implementation it can be easily achieved without a need to adjust user
visible APIs.
The secret memory remains accessible in the process context using uaccess
primitives, but it is not exposed to the kernel otherwise; secret memory
areas are removed from the direct map and functions in the
follow_page()/get_user_page() family will refuse to return a page that
belongs to the secret memory area.
Once there will be a use case that will require exposing secretmem to the
kernel it will be an opt-in request in the system call flags so that user
would have to decide what data can be exposed to the kernel.
Removing of the pages from the direct map may cause its fragmentation on
architectures that use large pages to map the physical memory which
affects the system performance. However, the original Kconfig text for
CONFIG_DIRECT_GBPAGES said that gigabyte pages in the direct map "... can
improve the kernel's performance a tiny bit ..." (commit 00d1c5e05736
("x86: add gbpages switches")) and the recent report [1] showed that "...
although 1G mappings are a good default choice, there is no compelling
evidence that it must be the only choice". Hence, it is sufficient to
have secretmem disabled by default with the ability of a system
administrator to enable it at boot time.
Pages in the secretmem regions are unevictable and unmovable to avoid
accidental exposure of the sensitive data via swap or during page
migration.
Since the secretmem mappings are locked in memory they cannot exceed
RLIMIT_MEMLOCK. Since these mappings are already locked independently
from mlock(), an attempt to mlock()/munlock() secretmem range would fail
and mlockall()/munlockall() will ignore secretmem mappings.
However, unlike mlock()ed memory, secretmem currently behaves more like
long-term GUP: secretmem mappings are unmovable mappings directly consumed
by user space. With default limits, there is no excessive use of
secretmem and it poses no real problem in combination with
ZONE_MOVABLE/CMA, but in the future this should be addressed to allow
balanced use of large amounts of secretmem along with ZONE_MOVABLE/CMA.
A page that was a part of the secret memory area is cleared when it is
freed to ensure the data is not exposed to the next user of that page.
The following example demonstrates creation of a secret mapping (error
handling is omitted):
fd = memfd_secret(0);
ftruncate(fd, MAP_SIZE);
ptr = mmap(NULL, MAP_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);

Patch series "mm: introduce memfd_secret system call to create "secret" memory areas", v20.
This is an implementation of "secret" mappings backed by a file
descriptor.
The file descriptor backing secret memory mappings is created using a
dedicated memfd_secret system call The desired protection mode for the
memory is configured using flags parameter of the system call. The mmap()
of the file descriptor created with memfd_secret() will create a "secret"
memory mapping. The pages in that mapping will be marked as not present
in the direct map and will be present only in the page table of the owning
mm.
Although normally Linux userspace mappings are protected from other users,
such secret mappings are useful for environments where a hostile tenant is
trying to trick the kernel into giving them access to other tenants
mappings.
It's designed to provide the following protections:
* Enhanced protection (in conjunction with all the other in-kernel
attack prevention systems) against ROP attacks. Seceretmem makes
"simple" ROP insufficient to perform exfiltration, which increases the
required complexity of the attack. Along with other protections like
the kernel stack size limit and address space layout randomization which
make finding gadgets is really hard, absence of any in-kernel primitive
for accessing secret memory means the one gadget ROP attack can't work.
Since the only way to access secret memory is to reconstruct the missing
mapping entry, the attacker has to recover the physical page and insert
a PTE pointing to it in the kernel and then retrieve the contents. That
takes at least three gadgets which is a level of difficulty beyond most
standard attacks.
* Prevent cross-process secret userspace memory exposures. Once the
secret memory is allocated, the user can't accidentally pass it into the
kernel to be transmitted somewhere. The secreremem pages cannot be
accessed via the direct map and they are disallowed in GUP.
* Harden against exploited kernel flaws. In order to access secretmem,
a kernel-side attack would need to either walk the page tables and
create new ones, or spawn a new privileged uiserspace process to perform
secrets exfiltration using ptrace.
In the future the secret mappings may be used as a mean to protect guest
memory in a virtual machine host.
For demonstration of secret memory usage we've created a userspace library
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/secret-memory-preloader.git
that does two things: the first is act as a preloader for openssl to
redirect all the OPENSSL_malloc calls to secret memory meaning any secret
keys get automatically protected this way and the other thing it does is
expose the API to the user who needs it. We anticipate that a lot of the
use cases would be like the openssl one: many toolkits that deal with
secret keys already have special handling for the memory to try to give
them greater protection, so this would simply be pluggable into the
toolkits without any need for user application modification.
Hiding secret memory mappings behind an anonymous file allows usage of the
page cache for tracking pages allocated for the "secret" mappings as well
as using address_space_operations for e.g. page migration callbacks.
The anonymous file may be also used implicitly, like hugetlb files, to
implement mmap(MAP_SECRET) and use the secret memory areas with "native"
mm ABIs in the future.
Removing of the pages from the direct map may cause its fragmentation on
architectures that use large pages to map the physical memory which
affects the system performance. However, the original Kconfig text for
CONFIG_DIRECT_GBPAGES said that gigabyte pages in the direct map "... can
improve the kernel's performance a tiny bit ..." (commit 00d1c5e05736

although 1G mappings are a good default choice, there is no compelling
evidence that it must be the only choice". Hence, it is sufficient to
have secretmem disabled by default with the ability of a system
administrator to enable it at boot time.
In addition, there is also a long term goal to improve management of the
direct map.

Stackdepot saves each unique stack only once.
Replace field addrs in struct track with depot_stack_handle_t handle. Use
stackdepot to save stack trace.
The benefits are smaller memory overhead and possibility to aggregate
per-cache statistics in the future using the stackdepot handle instead of

"Fix arm crashes caused by holes in the memory map.
The coordination between freeing of unused memory map, pfn_valid() and
core mm assumptions about validity of the memory map in various ranges
was not designed for complex layouts of the physical memory with a lot
of holes all over the place.
Kefen Wang reported crashes in move_freepages() on a system with the
following memory layout [1]:
node 0: [mem 0x0000000080a00000-0x00000000855fffff]

node 0: [mem 0x00000000fda00000-0x00000000ffffefff]
These crashes can be mitigated by enabling CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE on ARM
and essentially turning pfn_valid_within() to pfn_valid() instead of
having it hardwired to 1 on that architecture, but this would require
to keep CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE solely for this purpose.
A cleaner approach is to update ARM's implementation of pfn_valid() to
take into accounting rounding of the freed memory map to pageblock
boundaries and make sure it returns true for PFNs that have memory map
entries even if there is no physical memory backing those PFNs"

Prior to "percpu: implement partial chunk depopulation",
pcpu_depopulate_chunk() was called only on the destruction path. This
meant the virtual address range was on its way back to vmalloc which
will handle flushing the tlbs for us.
However, with pcpu_reclaim_populated(), we are now calling
pcpu_depopulate_chunk() during the active lifecycle of a chunk.
Therefore, we need to flush the tlb as well otherwise we can end up
accessing the wrong page through an invalid tlb mapping as reported in
[1].

Some devices require exclusive write access to shared virtual memory (SVM)
ranges to perform atomic operations on that memory. This requires CPU
page tables to be updated to deny access whilst atomic operations are
occurring.
In order to do this introduce a new swap entry type
(SWP_DEVICE_EXCLUSIVE). When a SVM range needs to be marked for exclusive
access by a device all page table mappings for the particular range are
replaced with device exclusive swap entries. This causes any CPU access
to the page to result in a fault.
Faults are resovled by replacing the faulting entry with the original
mapping. This results in MMU notifiers being called which a driver uses
to update access permissions such as revoking atomic access. After
notifiers have been called the device will no longer have exclusive access
to the region.
Walking of the page tables to find the target pages is handled by
get_user_pages() rather than a direct page table walk. A direct page
table walk similar to what migrate_vma_collect()/unmap() does could also
have been utilised. However this resulted in more code similar in
functionality to what get_user_pages() provides as page faulting is
required to make the PTEs present and to break COW.

Currently if copy_nonpresent_pte() returns a non-zero value it is assumed
to be a swap entry which requires further processing outside the loop in
copy_pte_range() after dropping locks. This prevents other values being
returned to signal conditions such as failure which a subsequent change
requires.
Instead make copy_nonpresent_pte() return an error code if further
processing is required and read the value for the swap entry in the main
loop under the ptl.

MMU notifier ranges have a migrate_pgmap_owner field which is used by
drivers to store a pointer. This is subsequently used by the driver
callback to filter MMU_NOTIFY_MIGRATE events. Other notifier event types
can also benefit from this filtering, so rename the 'migrate_pgmap_owner'
field to 'owner' and create a new notifier initialisation function to
initialise this field.

Migration is currently implemented as a mode of operation for
try_to_unmap_one() generally specified by passing the TTU_MIGRATION flag
or in the case of splitting a huge anonymous page TTU_SPLIT_FREEZE.
However it does not have much in common with the rest of the unmap
functionality of try_to_unmap_one() and thus splitting it into a separate
function reduces the complexity of try_to_unmap_one() making it more
readable.
Several simplifications can also be made in try_to_migrate_one() based on
the following observations:
- All users of TTU_MIGRATION also set TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK.
- No users of TTU_MIGRATION ever set TTU_IGNORE_HWPOISON.
- No users of TTU_MIGRATION ever set TTU_BATCH_FLUSH.
TTU_SPLIT_FREEZE is a special case of migration used when splitting an
anonymous page. This is most easily dealt with by calling the correct
function from unmap_page() in mm/huge_memory.c - either try_to_migrate()
for PageAnon or try_to_unmap().

The behaviour of try_to_unmap_one() is difficult to follow because it
performs different operations based on a fairly large set of flags used in
different combinations.
TTU_MUNLOCK is one such flag. However it is exclusively used by
try_to_munlock() which specifies no other flags. Therefore rather than
overload try_to_unmap_one() with unrelated behaviour split this out into
it's own function and remove the flag.

Patch series "Add support for SVM atomics in Nouveau", v11.
Introduction
============
Some devices have features such as atomic PTE bits that can be used to
implement atomic access to system memory. To support atomic operations to
a shared virtual memory page such a device needs access to that page which
is exclusive of the CPU. This series introduces a mechanism to
temporarily unmap pages granting exclusive access to a device.
These changes are required to support OpenCL atomic operations in Nouveau
to shared virtual memory (SVM) regions allocated with the
CL_MEM_SVM_ATOMICS clSVMAlloc flag. A more complete description of the
OpenCL SVM feature is available at
https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenCL/specs/3.0-unified/html/
OpenCL_API.html#_shared_virtual_memory .
Implementation
==============
Exclusive device access is implemented by adding a new swap entry type
(SWAP_DEVICE_EXCLUSIVE) which is similar to a migration entry. The main
difference is that on fault the original entry is immediately restored by
the fault handler instead of waiting.
Restoring the entry triggers calls to MMU notifers which allows a device
driver to revoke the atomic access permission from the GPU prior to the
CPU finalising the entry.
Patches
=======
Patches 1 & 2 refactor existing migration and device private entry
functions.
Patches 3 & 4 rework try_to_unmap_one() by splitting out unrelated
functionality into separate functions - try_to_migrate_one() and
try_to_munlock_one().
Patch 5 renames some existing code but does not introduce functionality.
Patch 6 is a small clean-up to swap entry handling in copy_pte_range().
Patch 7 contains the bulk of the implementation for device exclusive
memory.
Patch 8 contains some additions to the HMM selftests to ensure everything
works as expected.
Patch 9 is a cleanup for the Nouveau SVM implementation.
Patch 10 contains the implementation of atomic access for the Nouveau
driver.
Testing
=======
This has been tested with upstream Mesa 21.1.0 and a simple OpenCL program
which checks that GPU atomic accesses to system memory are atomic.
Without this series the test fails as there is no way of write-protecting
the page mapping which results in the device clobbering CPU writes. For
reference the test is available at
https://ozlabs.org/~apopple/opencl_svm_atomics/
Further testing has been performed by adding support for testing exclusive
access to the hmm-tests kselftests.
This patch (of 10):
Remove multiple similar inline functions for dealing with different types
of special swap entries.
Both migration and device private swap entries use the swap offset to
store a pfn. Instead of multiple inline functions to obtain a struct page
for each swap entry type use a common function pfn_swap_entry_to_page().
Also open-code the various entry_to_pfn() functions as this results is
shorter code that is easier to understand.

warnings early to avoid tripping the Intel lkp-robot, I noticed that mm/
is not clean for W=1. This is generally harmless but there is no harm in
cleaning it up. It disrupts git blame a little but on relatively obvious
lines that are unlikely to be git blame targets.
This patch (of 13):

Currently, memory-hotplug code takes zone's span_writelock and pgdat's
resize_lock when resizing the node/zone's spanned pages via
{move_pfn_range_to_zone(),remove_pfn_range_from_zone()} and when resizing
node and zone's present pages via adjust_present_page_count().
These locks are also taken during the initialization of the system at boot
time, where it protects parallel struct page initialization, but they
should not really be needed in memory-hotplug where all operations are a)
synchronized on device level and b) serialized by the mem_hotplug_lock
lock.

When offlining memory the system can attempt to migrate a lot of pages, if
there are problems with migration this can flood the logs. Printing all
the data hogs the CPU and cause some RT threads to run for a long time,
which may have some bad consequences.
Rate limit the page migration warnings in order to avoid this.

I. Background: Sparse Memory Mappings
When we manage sparse memory mappings dynamically in user space - also
sometimes involving MAP_NORESERVE - we want to dynamically populate/
discard memory inside such a sparse memory region. Example users are
hypervisors (especially implementing memory ballooning or similar
technologies like virtio-mem) and memory allocators. In addition, we want
to fail in a nice way (instead of generating SIGBUS) if populating does
not succeed because we are out of backend memory (which can happen easily
with file-based mappings, especially tmpfs and hugetlbfs).
While MADV_DONTNEED, MADV_REMOVE and FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE allow for
reliably discarding memory for most mapping types, there is no generic
approach to populate page tables and preallocate memory.
Although mmap() supports MAP_POPULATE, it is not applicable to the concept
of sparse memory mappings, where we want to populate/discard dynamically
and avoid expensive/problematic remappings. In addition, we never
actually report errors during the final populate phase - it is best-effort
only.
fallocate() can be used to preallocate file-based memory and fail in a
safe way. However, it cannot really be used for any private mappings on
anonymous files via memfd due to COW semantics. In addition, fallocate()
does not actually populate page tables, so we still always get pagefaults
on first access - which is sometimes undesired (i.e., real-time workloads)
and requires real prefaulting of page tables, not just a preallocation of
backend storage. There might be interesting use cases for sparse memory
regions along with mlockall(MCL_ONFAULT) which fallocate() cannot satisfy
as it does not prefault page tables.
II. On preallcoation/prefaulting from user space
Because we don't have a proper interface, what applications (like QEMU and
databases) end up doing is touching (i.e., reading+writing one byte to not
overwrite existing data) all individual pages.
However, that approach
1) Can result in wear on storage backing, because we end up reading/writing
each page; this is especially a problem for dax/pmem.
2) Can result in mmap_sem contention when prefaulting via multiple
threads.
3) Requires expensive signal handling, especially to catch SIGBUS in case
of hugetlbfs/shmem/file-backed memory. For example, this is
problematic in hypervisors like QEMU where SIGBUS handlers might already
be used by other subsystems concurrently to e.g, handle hardware errors.
"Simply" doing preallocation concurrently from other thread is not that
easy.
III. On MADV_WILLNEED
Extending MADV_WILLNEED is not an option because
1. It would change the semantics: "Expect access in the near future." and
"might be a good idea to read some pages" vs. "Definitely populate/
preallocate all memory and definitely fail on errors.".
2. Existing users (like virtio-balloon in QEMU when deflating the balloon)
don't want populate/prealloc semantics. They treat this rather as a hint
to give a little performance boost without too much overhead - and don't
expect that a lot of memory might get consumed or a lot of time
might be spent.
IV. MADV_POPULATE_READ and MADV_POPULATE_WRITE
Let's introduce MADV_POPULATE_READ and MADV_POPULATE_WRITE, inspired by
MAP_POPULATE, with the following semantics:
1. MADV_POPULATE_READ can be used to prefault page tables just like
manually reading each individual page. This will not break any COW
mappings. The shared zero page might get mapped and no backend storage
might get preallocated -- allocation might be deferred to
write-fault time. Especially shared file mappings require an explicit
fallocate() upfront to actually preallocate backend memory (blocks in
the file system) in case the file might have holes.
2. If MADV_POPULATE_READ succeeds, all page tables have been populated
(prefaulted) readable once.
3. MADV_POPULATE_WRITE can be used to preallocate backend memory and
prefault page tables just like manually writing (or
reading+writing) each individual page. This will break any COW
mappings -- e.g., the shared zeropage is never populated.
4. If MADV_POPULATE_WRITE succeeds, all page tables have been populated
(prefaulted) writable once.
5. MADV_POPULATE_READ and MADV_POPULATE_WRITE cannot be applied to special
mappings marked with VM_PFNMAP and VM_IO. Also, proper access
permissions (e.g., PROT_READ, PROT_WRITE) are required. If any such
mapping is encountered, madvise() fails with -EINVAL.
6. If MADV_POPULATE_READ or MADV_POPULATE_WRITE fails, some page tables
might have been populated.
7. MADV_POPULATE_READ and MADV_POPULATE_WRITE will return -EHWPOISON
when encountering a HW poisoned page in the range.
8. Similar to MAP_POPULATE, MADV_POPULATE_READ and MADV_POPULATE_WRITE
cannot protect from the OOM (Out Of Memory) handler killing the
process.
While the use case for MADV_POPULATE_WRITE is fairly obvious (i.e.,
preallocate memory and prefault page tables for VMs), one issue is that
whenever we prefault pages writable, the pages have to be marked dirty,
because the CPU could dirty them any time. while not a real problem for
hugetlbfs or dax/pmem, it can be a problem for shared file mappings: each
page will be marked dirty and has to be written back later when evicting.
MADV_POPULATE_READ allows for optimizing this scenario: Pre-read a whole
mapping from backend storage without marking it dirty, such that eviction
won't have to write it back. As discussed above, shared file mappings
might require an explciit fallocate() upfront to achieve
preallcoation+prepopulation.
Although sparse memory mappings are the primary use case, this will also
be useful for other preallocate/prefault use cases where MAP_POPULATE is
not desired or the semantics of MAP_POPULATE are not sufficient: as one
example, QEMU users can trigger preallocation/prefaulting of guest RAM
after the mapping was created -- and don't want errors to be silently
suppressed.
Looking at the history, MADV_POPULATE was already proposed in 2013 [1],
however, the main motivation back than was performance improvements --
which should also still be the case.
V. Single-threaded performance comparison
I did a short experiment, prefaulting page tables on completely *empty
mappings/files* and repeated the experiment 10 times. The results
correspond to the shortest execution time. In general, the performance
benefit for huge pages is negligible with small mappings.
V.1: Private mappings
POPULATE_READ and POPULATE_WRITE is fastest. Note that
Reading/POPULATE_READ will populate the shared zeropage where applicable
-- which result in short population times.
The fastest way to allocate backend storage (here: swap or huge pages) and
prefault page tables is POPULATE_WRITE.
V.2: Shared mappings
fallocate() is fastest, however, doesn't prefault page tables.
POPULATE_WRITE is faster than simple writes and read/writes.
POPULATE_READ is faster than simple reads.
Without a fd, the fastest way to allocate backend storage and prefault
page tables is POPULATE_WRITE. With an fd, the fastest way is usually
FALLOCATE+POPULATE_READ or FALLOCATE+POPULATE_WRITE respectively; one
exception are actual files: FALLOCATE+Read is slightly faster than
FALLOCATE+POPULATE_READ.
The fastest way to allocate backend storage prefault page tables is
FALLOCATE+POPULATE_WRITE -- except when dealing with actual files; then,
FALLOCATE+POPULATE_READ is fastest and won't directly mark all pages as
dirty.

ZONE_[DMA|DMA32] configs have duplicate definitions on platforms that
subscribe to them. Instead, just make them generic options which can be
selected on applicable platforms.
Also only x86/arm64 architectures could enable both ZONE_DMA and
ZONE_DMA32 if EXPERT, add ARCH_HAS_ZONE_DMA_SET to make dma zone
configurable and visible on the two architectures.

do_munmap() does not take the mmap_write_lock(). vm_munmap() should be
used instead.

mm/nommu.c:
void *__vmalloc(unsigned long size, gfp_t gfp_mask)
{
/*
* You can't specify __GFP_HIGHMEM with kmalloc() since kmalloc()
* returns only a logical address.
*/
return kmalloc(size, (gfp_mask | __GFP_COMP) & ~__GFP_HIGHMEM);
}
nommu's __vmalloc just uses kmalloc internally and elimitates
__GFP_HIGHMEM, so it makes no sense to add __GFP_HIGHMEM for nommu's
vmalloc/vzalloc.
