[Needed for HSDK]
Currently the first page of system (hence RAM base) is assumed to be
@ CONFIG_LINUX_LINK_BASE, where kernel itself is linked.
However is case of HSDK platform, for reasons explained in that patch,
this is not true. kernel needs to be linked @ 0x9000_0000 while DDR
is still wired at 0x8000_0000. To properly account for this 256M of RAM,
we need to introduce a new option and base page frame accountiing off of
it.

[vgupta: renamed CONFIG_KERNEL_RAM_BASE_ADDRESS => CONFIG_LINUX_RAM_BASE
: simplified changelog]
Initial HIGHMEM support on ARC was introduced for PAE40 where the low
memory (0x8000_0000 based) and high memory (0x1_0000_0000) were
physically contiguous. So CONFIG_FLATMEM sufficed (despite a peipheral
hole in the middle, which wasted a bit of struct page memory, but things
worked).
However w/o PAE, highmem was not possible and we could only reach
~1.75GB of DDR. Now there is a use case to access ~4GB of DDR w/o PAE40
The idea is to have low memory at canonical 0x8000_0000 and highmem
at 0 so enire 4GB address space is available for physical addressing
This needs additional platform/interconnect mapping to convert
the non contiguous physical addresses into linear bus adresses.
From Linux point of view, non contiguous divide means FLATMEM no
longer works and DISCONTIGMEM is needed to track the pfns in the 2
regions.
This scheme would also work for PAE40, only better in that we don't
waste struct page memory for the peripheral hole.
The DT description will be something like
memory {
...
reg = <0x80000000 0x200000000 /* 512MB: lowmem */
0x00000000 0x10000000>; /* 256MB: highmem */
}

So a benign looking cleanup which macro'ized PAGE_SHIFT shifts turned
out to be bad (since it was done non-sensically across the board).
It caused boot failures with PAE40 as forced cast to (unsigned long)
from newly introduced virt_to_pfn() was causing truncatiion of the
(long long) pte/paddr values.
It is OK to use this in accessors dealing with kernel virtual address,
pointers etc, but not for PTE values themelves.

There are only three patches this time, most other changes to
files in include/asm-generic tend to go through the tree of whoever
depends on the change.
Two patches are cleanups for stuff that is no longer needed,
the main change is to adapt the generic version of BUG_ON()
for CONFIG_BUG=n to make it behave consistently with BUG().
This avoids undefined behavior along with a number of warnings
about that undefined behavior in randconfig builds when
we keep going on after hitting a BUG_ON().

MMUv4 in HS38x cores supports Super Pages which are basis for Linux THP
support.
Normal and Super pages can co-exist (ofcourse not overlap) in TLB with a
new bit "SZ" in TLB page desciptor to distinguish between them.
Super Page size is configurable in hardware (4K to 16M), but fixed once
RTL builds.
The exact THP size a Linx configuration will support is a function of:
- MMU page size (typical 8K, RTL fixed)
- software page walker address split between PGD:PTE:PFN (typical
11:8:13, but can be changed with 1 line)
So for above default, THP size supported is 8K * 256 = 2M
Default Page Walker is 2 levels, PGD:PTE:PFN, which in THP regime
reduces to 1 level (as PTE is folded into PGD and canonically referred
to as PMD).
Thus thp PMD accessors are implemented in terms of PTE (just like sparc)

ARC is the only arch with unsigned long type (vs. struct page *).
Historically this was done to avoid the page_address() calls in various
arch hooks which need to get the virtual/logical address of the table.
Some arches alternately define it as pte_t *, and is as efficient as
unsigned long (generated code doesn't change)

1. For VM_EXEC based delayed dcache/icache flush, reduces the number of
flushes.
2. Makes this security feature ON by default rather than OFF before.
3. Applications can use mprotect() to selectively override this.
4. ELF binaries have a GNU_STACK segment which can easily override the
kernel default permissions.
For nested-functions/trampolines, gcc already auto-enables executable
stack in elf. Others needing this can use -Wl,-z,execstack option.

gdbserver inserting a breakpoint ends up calling copy_user_page() for a
code page. The generic version of which (non-aliasing config) didn't set
the PG_arch_1 bit hence update_mmu_cache() didn't sync dcache/icache for
corresponding dynamic loader code page - causing garbade to be executed.
So now aliasing versions of copy_user_highpage()/clear_page() are made
default. There is no significant overhead since all of special alias
handling code is compiled out for non-aliasing build

This is the meat of the series which prevents any dcache alias creation
by always keeping the U and K mapping of a page congruent.
If a mapping already exists, and other tries to access the page, prev
one is flushed to physical page (wback+inv)
Essentially flush_dcache_page()/copy_user_highpage() create K-mapping
of a page, but try to defer flushing, unless U-mapping exist.
When page is actually mapped to userspace, update_mmu_cache() flushes
the K-mapping (in certain cases this can be optimised out)
Additonally flush_cache_mm(), flush_cache_range(), flush_cache_page()
handle the puring of stale userspace mappings on exit/munmap...
flush_anon_page() handles the existing U-mapping for anon page before
kernel reads it via the GUP path.
Note that while not complete, this is enough to boot a simple
dynamically linked Busybox based rootfs

Implement ioremap_prot() to allow mapping IO memory with variable
protection
via TLB.
Implementing this allows the /dev/mem driver to use its generic access()
VMA callback, which in turn allows ptrace to examine data in memory
mapped regions mapped via /dev/mem, such as Arc DCCM.
The end result is that it is possible to examine values of variables
placed into DCCM in user space programs via GDB.
