This patch adds variants of rcu_dereference() that handle
situations where the RCU-protected data structure cannot change,
perhaps due to our holding the update-side lock, or where the
RCU-protected pointer is only to be fetched, not dereferenced.
These are needed due to some performance concerns with using
rcu_dereference() where it is not required, aside from the need
for lockdep/sparse checking.
The new rcu_access_pointer() primitive is for the case where the
pointer is be fetch and not dereferenced. This primitive may be
used without protection, RCU or otherwise, due to the fact that
it uses ACCESS_ONCE().
The new rcu_dereference_protected() primitive is for the case
where updates are prevented, for example, due to holding the
update-side lock. This primitive does neither ACCESS_ONCE() nor
smp_read_barrier_depends(), so can only be used when updates are
somehow prevented.

Found by kmemleak.
If request_resource() fails, we leak the struct resource we
allocated to represent the IOMMU mapping area.
This actually happens on sun4v machines because the IOMEM area is only
reported sans the IOMMU region, unlike all previous systems. I'll
need to fix that at some point, but for now fix the leak.

The only reference we store to this memory is in the form of a
physical address, so kmemleak can't see it.
Add a kmemleak_not_leak() annotation.
It's probably useful to be able to look at a dump of these things
either via debugfs or similar, and thus we could at some point store
them in some kind of table and therefore get rid of this annotation.

If we are in an NMI then doing a plain raw_local_irq_disable() will
write PIL_NORMAL_MAX into %pil, which is lower than PIL_NMI, and thus
we'll re-enable NMIs and recurse.
Doing a simple:
%pil = %pil | PIL_NORMAL_MAX
does what we want, if we're already at PIL_NMI (15) we leave it at
that setting, else we set it to PIL_NORMAL_MAX (14).
This should get the function tracer working on sparc64.

Otherwise we might be mapping in a page in a new mapping, but that page
(through the swapcache) would later be mapped into an old mapping too.
The page->mapping must be the case that works for everybody, not just
the mapping that happened to page it in first.
Here's the scenario:
- page gets allocated/mapped by process A. Let's call the anon_vma we
associate the page with 'A' to keep it easy to track.
- Process A forks, creating process B. The anon_vma in B is 'B', and has
a chain that looks like 'B' -> 'A'. Everything is fine.
- Swapping happens. The page (with mapping pointing to 'A') gets swapped
out (perhaps not to disk - it's enough to assume that it's just not
mapped any more, and lives entirely in the swap-cache)
- Process B pages it in, which goes like this:
do_swap_page ->
page = lookup_swap_cache(entry);
...
set_pte_at(mm, address, page_table, pte);
page_add_anon_rmap(page, vma, address);
And think about what happens here!
In particular, what happens is that this will now be the "first"
mapping of that page, so page_add_anon_rmap() used to do
if (first)
__page_set_anon_rmap(page, vma, address);
and notice what anon_vma it will use? It will use the anon_vma for
process B!
What happens then? Trivial: process 'A' also pages it in (nothing
happens, it's not the first mapping), and then process 'B' execve's
or exits or unmaps, making anon_vma B go away.
End result: process A has a page that points to anon_vma B, but
anon_vma B does not exist any more. This can go on forever. Forget
about RCU grace periods, forget about locking, forget anything like
that. The bug is simply that page->mapping points to an anon_vma
that was correct at one point, but was _not_ the one that was shared
by all users of that possible mapping.
Changing it to always use the deepest anon_vma in the anonvma chain gets
us to the safest model.
This can be improved in certain cases: if we know the page is private to
just this particular mapping (for example, it's a new page, or it is the
only swapcache entry), we could pick the top (most specific) anon_vma.
But that's a future optimization. Make it _work_ reliably first.

When we move the boundaries between two vma's due to things like
mprotect, we need to make sure that the anon_vma of the pages that got
moved from one vma to another gets properly copied around. And that was
not always the case, in this rather hard-to-follow code sequence.
Clarify the code, and fix it so that it copies the anon_vma from the
right source.

This changes the anon_vma reuse case to require that we only reuse
simple anon_vma's - ie the case when the vma only has a single anon_vma
associated with it.
This means that a reuse of an anon_vma from an adjacent vma will always
guarantee that both vma's are associated not only with the same
anon_vma, they will also have the same anon_vma chain (of just a single
entry in this case).
And since anon_vma re-use was the only case where the same anon_vma
might be associated with different chains of anon_vma's, we now have the
case that every vma that shares the same anon_vma will always also have
the same chain. That makes it much easier to think about merging vma's
that share the same anon_vma's: you can always just drop the other
anon_vma chain in anon_vma_merge() since you know that they are always
identical.
This also splits up the function to validate the anon_vma re-use, and
adds a lot of commentary about the possible races.

The ebase is relative to CKSEG0 not CAC_BASE. On a 32-bit kernel they
are the same thing, for a 64-bit kernel they are not.
It happens to kind of work on a 64-bit kernel as they both reference
the same physical memory. However since the CPU uses the CKSEG0 base,
determining if a J instruction will reach always gives the wrong result
unless we use the same number the CPU uses.

Commit b3594a089f1c17ff919f8f78505c3f20e1f6f8ce (lmo) rsp.
351336929c (kernel.org) break non-GPL modules
that use __vmalloc() or any of the vmap(), vm_map_ram(), etc functions on
MIPS.
All those functions are EXPORT_SYMBOL() so are meant to be allowed to be
used by non-GPL kernel modules. These calls all take page protection as
an argument which is normally a constant like PAGE_KERNEL.
This commit causes all protection constants like PAGE_KERNEL to not be
constants and instead to contain the GPL-only symbol _page_cachable_default.
This means that all calls to __vmalloc(), vmap(), etc, cause non-GPL
modules to fail to link with the complaint that they are trying to use the
GPL-only symbol _page_cachable_default...
Change EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(_page_cachable_default) to EXPORT_SYMBOL() for
non-GPL modules that call __vmalloc(), vmap(), vm_map_ram() etc.
