Rework the way physical pages are set no-dat / dat: The old way is: - Rely on that all pages are initially marked "dat" - Allocate page tables for the kernel mapping - Enable dat - Walk the whole kernel mapping and set PG_arch_1 bit in all struct pages that belong to pages of kernel page tables - Walk all struct pages and test and clear the PG_arch_1 bit. If the bit is not set, set the page state to no-dat - For all subsequent page table allocations, set the page state to dat (remove the no-dat state) on allocation time Change this rather complex logic to a simpler approach: - Set the whole physical memory (all pages) to "no-dat" - Explicitly set those page table pages to "dat" which are part of the kernel image (e.g. swapper_pg_dir) - For all subsequent page table allocations, set the page state to dat (remove the no-dat state) on allocation time In result the code is simpler, and this also allows to get rid of one odd usage of the PG_arch_1 bit.
