| * x86: AMD Athlon X2 hard hang fixIngo Molnar2008-02-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An Athlon 64 X2 test system showed hard hangs shortly after marking the kernel text read-only, if we tried to preserve largepages and changed the PSE entry from RW to RO. The pagetable code itself is correct, it's the CPU that locked up hard (and not even the NMI watchdog could punch through that hard hang). So be conservative and always do splitups - like we did in the past. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

| * x86: use the pfn from the page when change its attributesArjan van de Ven2008-02-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When changing the attributes of a pte, we should use the PFN from the existing PTE rather than going through hoops calculating what we think it might have been; this is both fragile and totally unneeded. It also makes it more hairy to call any of these functions on non-direct maps for no good reason whatsover. With this change, __change_page_attr() no longer takes a pfn as argument, which simplifies all the callers.

| * x86: teach the static_protection function about high mappingsArjan van de Ven2008-02-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now, enforcing that the high mapping of the kernel text doesn't get the NX bit is done deep in the guts of CPA, rather than in the static_protection() function that enforces all other per-arch sanity checks. This patch moves this sanity check into the central static_protection() function instead, and makes it apply ONLY to the kernel text, not to all other areas in the high mapping.
