[PATCH] ppc64: pgtable.h and other header cleanups
This patch started as simply removing a few never-used macros from asm-ppc64/pgtable.h, then kind of grew. It now makes a bunch of cleanups to the ppc64 low-level header files (with corresponding changes to .c files where necessary) such as: - Abolishing never-used macros - Eliminating multiple #defines with the same purpose - Removing pointless macros (cases where just expanding the macro everywhere turns out clearer and more sensible) - Removing some cases where macros which could be defined in terms of each other weren't - Moving imalloc() related definitions from pgtable.h to their own header file (imalloc.h) - Re-arranging headers to group things more logically - Moving all VSID allocation related things to mmu.h, instead of being split between mmu.h and mmu_context.h - Removing some reserved space for flags from the PMD - we're not using it. - Fix some bugs which broke compile with STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS.

87/* VSID allocation
88 * ===============
89 *
90 * We first generate a 36-bit "proto-VSID". For kernel addresses this
91 * is equal to the ESID, for user addresses it is:
92 * (context << 15) | (esid & 0x7fff)
93 *
94 * The two forms are distinguishable because the top bit is 0 for user
95 * addresses, whereas the top two bits are 1 for kernel addresses.
96 * Proto-VSIDs with the top two bits equal to 0b10 are reserved for
97 * now.
98 *
99 * The proto-VSIDs are then scrambled into real VSIDs with the
100 * multiplicative hash:
101 *
102 * VSID = (proto-VSID * VSID_MULTIPLIER) % VSID_MODULUS
103 * where VSID_MULTIPLIER = 268435399 = 0xFFFFFC7
104 * VSID_MODULUS = 2^36-1 = 0xFFFFFFFFF
105 *
106 * This scramble is only well defined for proto-VSIDs below
107 * 0xFFFFFFFFF, so both proto-VSID and actual VSID 0xFFFFFFFFF are
108 * reserved. VSID_MULTIPLIER is prime, so in particular it is
109 * co-prime to VSID_MODULUS, making this a 1:1 scrambling function.
110 * Because the modulus is 2^n-1 we can compute it efficiently without
111 * a divide or extra multiply (see below).
112 *
113 * This scheme has several advantages over older methods:
114 *
115 * - We have VSIDs allocated for every kernel address
116 * (i.e. everything above 0xC000000000000000), except the very top
117 * segment, which simplifies several things.
118 *
119 * - We allow for 15 significant bits of ESID and 20 bits of
120 * context for user addresses. i.e. 8T (43 bits) of address space for
121 * up to 1M contexts (although the page table structure and context
122 * allocation will need changes to take advantage of this).
123 *
124 * - The scramble function gives robust scattering in the hash
125 * table (at least based on some initial results). The previous
126 * method was more susceptible to pathological cases giving excessive
127 * hash collisions.
128 */
129
130/*
131 * WARNING - If you change these you must make sure the asm
132 * implementations in slb_allocate(), do_stab_bolted and mmu.h
133 * (ASM_VSID_SCRAMBLE macro) are changed accordingly.
134 *
135 * You'll also need to change the precomputed VSID values in head.S
136 * which are used by the iSeries firmware.
