Commit d6a9996e84ac ("powerpc/mm: vmalloc abstraction in preparation for
radix") turned kernel memory and IO addresses from #defined constants to
variables initialised at runtime.

On PA6T (pasemi) systems the setup_arch() machine call initialises the
onboard PCI-e root-ports, and uses pci_io_base to do this, which is now
before its value has been set, resulting in a panic early in boot before
console IO is initialised.

Move the pci_io_base initialisation to the same place as vmalloc ranges
are set (hash__early_init_mmu()/radix__early_init_mmu()) - this is the
earliest possible place we can initialise it.

<title>powerpc: get rid of superfluous __GFP_REPEAT</title>

__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations.

{pud,pmd}_alloc_one are allocating from {PGT,PUD}_CACHE initialized in
pgtable_cache_init which doesn't have larger than sizeof(void *) &lt;&lt; 12
size and that fits into !costly allocation request size.

PGALLOC_GFP is used only in radix__pgd_alloc which uses either order-0
or order-4 requests.  The first one doesn't need the flag while the
second does.  Drop __GFP_REPEAT from PGALLOC_GFP and add it for the
order-4 one.

This means that this flag has never been actually useful here because it
has always been used only for PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY requests.

<title>tree wide: get rid of __GFP_REPEAT for order-0 allocations part I</title>

This is the third version of the patchset previously sent [1].  I have
basically only rebased it on top of 4.7-rc1 tree and dropped "dm: get
rid of superfluous gfp flags" which went through dm tree.  I am sending
it now because it is tree wide and chances for conflicts are reduced
considerably when we want to target rc2.  I plan to send the next step
and rename the flag and move to a better semantic later during this
release cycle so we will have a new semantic ready for 4.8 merge window
hopefully.

Motivation:

While working on something unrelated I've checked the current usage of
__GFP_REPEAT in the tree.  It seems that a majority of the usage is and
always has been bogus because __GFP_REPEAT has always been about costly
high order allocations while we are using it for order-0 or very small
orders very often.  It seems that a big pile of them is just a
copy&amp;paste when a code has been adopted from one arch to another.

I think it makes some sense to get rid of them because they are just
making the semantic more unclear.  Please note that GFP_REPEAT is
documented as

* __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt

* _might_ fail.  This depends upon the particular VM implementation.
  while !costly requests have basically nofail semantic.  So one could
  reasonably expect that order-0 request with __GFP_REPEAT will not loop
  for ever.  This is not implemented right now though.

I would like to move on with __GFP_REPEAT and define a better semantic
for it.

  $ git grep __GFP_REPEAT origin/master | wc -l
  111
  $ git grep __GFP_REPEAT | wc -l
  36

So we are down to the third after this patch series.  The remaining
places really seem to be relying on __GFP_REPEAT due to large allocation
requests.  This still needs some double checking which I will do later
after all the simple ones are sorted out.

I am touching a lot of arch specific code here and I hope I got it right
but as a matter of fact I even didn't compile test for some archs as I
do not have cross compiler for them.  Patches should be quite trivial to
review for stupid compile mistakes though.  The tricky parts are usually
hidden by macro definitions and thats where I would appreciate help from
arch maintainers.

[1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1461849846-27209-1-git-send-email-mhocko@kernel.org

This patch (of 19):

__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations.  Yet we
have the full kernel tree with its usage for apparently order-0
allocations.  This is really confusing because __GFP_REPEAT is
explicitly documented to allow allocation failures which is a weaker
semantic than the current order-0 has (basically nofail).

Let's simply drop __GFP_REPEAT from those places.  This would allow to
identify place which really need allocator to retry harder and formulate
a more specific semantic for what the flag is supposed to do actually.

ISA 3.0 updated it to be encoded as Radix tree size = 2^(RTS + 31). We
have it encoded as 2^(RTS + 28). Add a helper with the correct encoding
and use it instead of opencoding.

ISA 3.0 updated it to be encoded as Radix tree size = 2^(RTS + 31). We
have it encoded as 2^(RTS + 28). Add a helper with the correct encoding
and use it instead of opencoding.

<title>powerpc/mm/hash: Use the correct PPP mask when updating HPTE</title>

With commit e58e87adc8bf9 "powerpc/mm: Update _PAGE_KERNEL_RO" we now
use all the three PPP bits. The top bit is now used to have a PPP value
of 0b110 which will be mapped to kernel read only. When updating the
hpte entry use right mask such that we update the 63rd bit (top 'P' bit)
too.

Prior to e58e87adc8bf we didn't support KERNEL_RO at all (it was ==
KERNEL_RW), so this isn't a regression as such.

<title>powerpc/mm/radix: Flush page walk cache when freeing page table</title>

Even though a tlb_flush() does a flush with invalidate all cache,
we can end up doing an RCU page table free before calling tlb_flush().
That means we can have page walk cache entries even after we free the
page table pages. This can result in us doing wrong page table walk.

Avoid this by doing pwc flush on every page table free. We can't batch
the pwc flush, because the rcu call back function where we free the
page table pages doesn't have information of the mmu gather. Thus we
have to do a pwc on every page table page freed.

Note: I also removed the dummy tlb_flush_pgtable call functions for
hash 32.

Commit 74701d5947a6 "powerpc/mm: Rename function to indicate we are
allocating fragments" renamed page_table_free() to pte_fragment_free().
One occurrence was mistyped as pte_fragment_fre().

This only breaks the nohash 64K page build, which is not the default or
enabled in any defconfig.
