commit d0b7a302d58abe24ed0f32a0672dd4c356bb73db upstream.

This reverts commit 24fe1b0efad4fcdd32ce46cffeab297f22581707.

Commit 24fe1b0efad4fcdd ("arm64: Remove unnecessary ISBs from
set_{pte,pmd,pud}") removed ISB instructions immediately following updates
to the page table, on the grounds that they are not required by the
architecture and a DSB alone is sufficient to ensure that subsequent data
accesses use the new translation:

  DDI0487E_a, B2-128:

  | ... no instruction that appears in program order after the DSB
  | instruction can alter any state of the system or perform any part of
  | its functionality until the DSB completes other than:
  |
  | * Being fetched from memory and decoded
  | * Reading the general-purpose, SIMD and floating-point,
  |   Special-purpose, or System registers that are directly or indirectly
  |   read without causing side-effects.

However, the same document also states the following:

  DDI0487E_a, B2-125:

  | DMB and DSB instructions affect reads and writes to the memory system
  | generated by Load/Store instructions and data or unified cache
  | maintenance instructions being executed by the PE. Instruction fetches
  | or accesses caused by a hardware translation table access are not
  | explicit accesses.

which appears to claim that the DSB alone is insufficient.  Unfortunately,
some CPU designers have followed the second clause above, whereas in Linux
we've been relying on the first. This means that our mapping sequence:

	MOV	X0, &lt;valid pte&gt;
	STR	X0, [Xptep]	// Store new PTE to page table
	DSB	ISHST
	LDR	X1, [X2]	// Translates using the new PTE

can actually raise a translation fault on the load instruction because the
translation can be performed speculatively before the page table update and
then marked as "faulting" by the CPU. For user PTEs, this is ok because we
can handle the spurious fault, but for kernel PTEs and intermediate table
entries this results in a panic().

Revert the offending commit to reintroduce the missing barriers.

 "Another round of SPDX updates for 5.2-rc6

  Here is what I am guessing is going to be the last "big" SPDX update
  for 5.2. It contains all of the remaining GPLv2 and GPLv2+ updates
  that were "easy" to determine by pattern matching. The ones after this
  are going to be a bit more difficult and the people on the spdx list
  will be discussing them on a case-by-case basis now.

  Another 5000+ files are fixed up, so our overall totals are:
	Files checked:            64545
	Files with SPDX:          45529

  Compared to the 5.1 kernel which was:
	Files checked:            63848
	Files with SPDX:          22576

  This is a huge improvement.

  Also, we deleted another 20000 lines of boilerplate license crud,
  always nice to see in a diffstat"

When PGD_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE, arm64 uses kmem_cache for allocation of PGD
memory. That cache was initialized twice: first through
pgtable_cache_init() alias and then as an override for weak
pgd_cache_init().

Remove the alias from pgtable_cache_init() and keep the only pgd_cache
initialization in pgd_cache_init().

<title>arm64: Fix compiler warning from pte_unmap() with -Wunused-but-set-variable</title>

<content type='text'>
When building with -Wunused-but-set-variable, the compiler shouts about
a number of pte_unmap() users, since this expands to an empty macro on
arm64:

  | mm/gup.c: In function 'gup_pte_range':
  | mm/gup.c:1727:16: warning: variable 'ptem' set but not used
  | [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
  | mm/gup.c: At top level:

  | mm/memory.c:821:24: warning: variable 'orig_dst_pte' set but not used
  | [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
  | mm/memory.c:821:9: warning: variable 'orig_src_pte' set but not used

Rewrite pte_unmap() as a static inline function, which silences the
warnings.

<title>KVM: arm64: Add support for creating PUD hugepages at stage 2</title>

KVM only supports PMD hugepages at stage 2. Now that the various page
handling routines are updated, extend the stage 2 fault handling to
map in PUD hugepages.

Addition of PUD hugepage support enables additional page sizes (e.g.,
1G with 4K granule) which can be useful on cores that support mapping
larger block sizes in the TLB entries.

In preparation for creating larger hugepages at Stage 2, add support
to the age handling notifiers for PUD hugepages when encountered.

Provide trivial helpers for arm32 to allow sharing code.
