To make the page tables compact, we were using 32-bit PGDs and PMDs.
We only had to support <= 43 bits of physical addresses so this was
quite feasible.
In order to support larger physical addresses we have to move to
64-bit PGDs and PMDs.
Most of the changes are straight-forward:
1) {pgd,pmd}_t --> unsigned long
2) Anything that tries to use plain "unsigned int" types with pgd/pmd
values needs to be adjusted. In particular things like "0U" become
"0UL".
3) {PGDIR,PMD}_BITS decrease by one.
4) In the assembler page table walkers, use "ldxa" instead of "lduwa"
and adjust the low bit masks to clear out the low 3 bits instead of
just the low 2 bits during pgd/pmd address formation.
Also, use PTRS_PER_PGD and PTRS_PER_PMD in the sizing of the
swapper_{pg_dir,low_pmd_dir} arrays.
This patch does not try to take advantage of having 64-bits in the
PMDs to simplify the hugepage code, that will come in a subsequent
change.

The impetus for this is that we would like to move to 64-bit PMDs and
PGDs, but that would result in only supporting a 42-bit address space
with the current page table layout. It'd be nice to support at least
43-bits.
The reason we'd end up with only 42-bits after making PMDs and PGDs
64-bit is that we only use half-page sized PTE tables in order to make
PMDs line up to 4MB, the hardware huge page size we use.
So what we do here is we make huge pages 8MB, and fabricate them using
4MB hw TLB entries.
Facilitate this by providing a "REAL_HPAGE_SHIFT" which is used in
places that really need to operate on hardware 4MB pages.
Use full pages (512 entries) for PTE tables, and adjust PMD_SHIFT,
PGD_SHIFT, and the build time CPP test as needed. Use a CPP test to
make sure REAL_HPAGE_SHIFT and the _PAGE_SZHUGE_* we use match up.
This makes the pgtable cache completely unused, so remove the code
managing it and the state used in mm_context_t. Now we have less
spinlocks taken in the page table allocation path.
The technique we use to fabricate the 8MB pages is to transfer bit 22
from the missing virtual address into the PTEs physical address field.
That takes care of the transparent huge pages case.
For hugetlb, we fill things in at the PTE level and that code already
puts the sub huge page physical bits into the PTEs, based upon the
offset, so there is nothing special we need to do. It all just works
out.
So, a small amount of complexity in the THP case, but this code is
about to get much simpler when we move the 64-bit PMDs as we can move
away from the fancy 32-bit huge PMD encoding and just put a real PTE
value in there.
With bug fixes and help from Bob Picco.

Choose PAGE_OFFSET dynamically based upon cpu type.
Original UltraSPARC-I (spitfire) chips only supported a 44-bit
virtual address space.
Newer chips (T4 and later) support 52-bit virtual addresses
and up to 47-bits of physical memory space.
Therefore we have to adjust PAGE_SIZE dynamically based upon
the capabilities of the chip.
Note that this change alone does not allow us to support > 43-bit
physical memory, to do that we need to re-arrange our page table
support. The current encodings of the pmd_t and pgd_t pointers
restricts us to "32 + 11" == 43 bits.
This change can waste quite a bit of memory for the various tables.
In particular, a future change should work to size and allocate
kern_linear_bitmap[] and sparc64_valid_addr_bitmap[] dynamically.
This isn't easy as we really cannot take a TLB miss when accessing
kern_linear_bitmap[]. We'd have to lock it into the TLB or similar.

This way we can see exactly what they are derived from, and in particular
how they would change if we were to use a different PAGE_OFFSET value.

Older UltraSPARC chips had an address space hole due to the MMU only
supporting 44-bit virtual addresses.
The top end of this hole also has the same value as the current
definition of PAGE_OFFSET, so this can be confusing.
Consolidate the defines for the userspace mmap exclusion range into
page_64.h and use them in sys_sparc_64.c and hugetlbpage.c

If our first THP installation for an MM is via the set_pmd_at() done
during khugepaged's collapsing we'll end up in tsb_grow() trying to do
a GFP_KERNEL allocation with several locks held.
Simply using GFP_ATOMIC in this situation is not the best option
because we really can't have this fail, so we'd really like to keep
this an order 0 GFP_KERNEL allocation if possible.
Also, doing the TSB allocation from khugepaged is a really bad idea
because we'll allocate it potentially from the wrong NUMA node in that
context.
So what we do is defer the hugepage TSB allocation until the first TLB
miss we take on a hugepage. This is slightly tricky because we have
to handle two unusual cases:
1) Taking the first hugepage TLB miss in the window trap handler.
We'll call the winfix_trampoline when that is detected.
2) An initial TSB allocation via TLB miss races with a hugetlb
fault on another cpu running the same MM. We handle this by
unconditionally loading the TSB we see into the current cpu
even if it's non-NULL at hugetlb_setup time.

This is relatively easy since PMD's now cover exactly 4MB of memory.
Our PMD entries are 32-bits each, so we use a special encoding. The
lowest bit, PMD_ISHUGE, determines the interpretation. This is possible
because sparc64's page tables are purely software entities so we can use
whatever encoding scheme we want. We just have to make the TLB miss
assembler page table walkers aware of the layout.
set_pmd_at() works much like set_pte_at() but it has to operate in two
page from a table of non-huge PTEs, so we have to queue up TLB flushes
based upon what mappings are valid in the PTE table. In the second regime
we are going from huge-page to non-huge-page, and in that case we need
only queue up a single TLB flush to push out the huge page mapping.
We still have 5 bits remaining in the huge PMD encoding so we can very
likely support any new pieces of THP state tracking that might get added
in the future.
With lots of help from Johannes Weiner.

We've split up the PTE tables so that they take up half a page instead of
a full page. This is in order to facilitate transparent huge page
support, which works much better if our PMDs cover 4MB instead of 8MB.
What we do is have a one-behind cache for PTE table allocations in the
mm struct.
This logic triggers only on allocations. For example, we don't try to
keep track of free'd up page table blocks in the style that the s390 port
does.
There were only two slightly annoying aspects to this change:
1) Changing pgtable_t to be a "pte_t *". There's all of this special
logic in the TLB free paths that needed adjustments, as did the
PMD populate interfaces.
2) init_new_context() needs to zap the pointer, since the mm struct
just gets copied from the parent on fork.

Narrowing the scope of the page size configurations will make the
transparent hugepage changes much simpler.
In the end what we really want to do is have the kernel support multiple
huge page sizes and use whatever is appropriate as the context dictactes.

The current asm-generic/page.h only contains the get_order
function, and asm-generic/uaccess.h only implements
unaligned accesses. This renames the file to getorder.h
and uaccess-unaligned.h to make room for new page.h
and uaccess.h file that will be usable by all simple
(e.g. nommu) architectures.

As sparse warns, without this struct page pointer subtraction is
extremely expensive, and this is a pretty common operation in
fast paths.
With this define struct page becomes 64 bytes which makes for a
simple subtract and shift, instead of a costly divide or reciprocol
multiply.

The majority of this patch was created by the following script:
***
ASM=arch/sparc/include/asm
mkdir -p $ASM
git mv include/asm-sparc64/ftrace.h $ASM
git rm include/asm-sparc64/*
git mv include/asm-sparc/* $ASM
sed -ie 's/asm-sparc64/asm/g' $ASM/*
sed -ie 's/asm-sparc/asm/g' $ASM/*
***
The rest was an update of the top-level Makefile to use sparc
for header files when sparc64 is being build.
And a small fixlet to pick up the correct unistd.h from
sparc64 code.
