When saveable_highmem_page() is unused, it prevents kernel builds
with clang, `make W=1` and CONFIG_WERROR=y:

kernel/power/snapshot.c:1369:21: error: unused function 'saveable_highmem_page' [-Werror,-Wunused-function]
 1369 | static inline void *saveable_highmem_page(struct zone *z, unsigned long p)
      |                     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fix this by removing unused stub.

kmap_atomic() has been deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().

kmap_atomic() disables page-faults and preemption (the latter
only for !PREEMPT_RT kernels).The code between the mapping and
un-mapping in this patch does not depend on the above-mentioned
side effects.So simply replaced kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page().

The commit being fixed introduced a bug in copying the zero bitmap
to safe pages. A temporary bitmap is allocated with PG_ANY flag in
prepare_image() to make a copy of zero bitmap after the unsafe pages
are marked. Freeing this temporary bitmap with PG_UNSAFE_KEEP later
results in an inconsistent state of unsafe pages. Since free bit is
left as is for this temporary bitmap after free, these pages are
treated as unsafe pages when they are allocated again. This results
in incorrect calculation of the number of pages pre-allocated for the
image.

nr_pages = (nr_zero_pages + nr_copy_pages) - nr_highmem - allocated_unsafe_pages;

The allocate_unsafe_pages is estimated to be higher than the actual
which results in running short of pages in safe_pages_list. Hence the
crash is observed in get_buffer() due to NULL pointer access of
safe_pages_list.

Fix this issue by creating the temporary zero bitmap from safe pages
(free bit not set) so that the corresponding free bits can be cleared
while freeing this bitmap.

<title>PM: hibernate: Clean up sync_read handling in snapshot_write_next()</title>

In snapshot_write_next(), sync_read is set and unset in three different
spots unnecessiarly. As a result there is a subtle bug where the first
page after the meta data has been loaded unconditionally sets sync_read
to 0. If this first PFN was actually a highmem page, then the returned
buffer will be the global "buffer," and the page needs to be loaded
synchronously.

That is, I'm not sure we can always assume the following to be safe:

	handle-&gt;buffer = get_buffer(&amp;orig_bm, &amp;ca);
	handle-&gt;sync_read = 0;

Because get_buffer() can call get_highmem_page_buffer() which can
return 'buffer'.

The easiest way to address this is just set sync_read before
snapshot_write_next() returns if handle-&gt;buffer == buffer.

<id>005e8dddd4978f6243820d031987056a1a88a2dd</id>
<content type='text'>
On ChromeOS we've observed a considerable number of in-use pages filled with
zeros. Today with hibernate it's entirely possible that saveable pages are just
zero filled. Since we're already copying pages word-by-word in do_copy_page it
becomes almost free to determine if a page was completely filled with zeros.

This change introduces a new bitmap which will track these zero pages. If a page
is zero it will not be included in the saved image, instead to track these zero
pages in the image file we will introduce a new flag which we will set on the
packed PFN list. When reading back in the image file we will detect these zero
page PFNs and rebuild the zero page bitmap.

When the image is being loaded through calls to write_next_page if we encounter
a zero page we will silently memset it to 0 and then continue on to the next
page. Given the implementation in snapshot_read_next/snapshot_write_next this
change  will be transparent to non-compressed/compressed and swsusp modes of
operation.

To provide some concrete numbers from simple ad-hoc testing, on a device which
was lightly in use we saw that:

PM: hibernation: Image created (964408 pages copied, 548304 zero pages)

Of the approximately 6.2GB of saveable pages 2.2GB (36%) were just zero filled
and could be tracked entirely within the packed PFN list. The savings would
obviously be much lower for lzo compressed images, but even in the case of
compression not copying pages across to the compression threads will still
speed things up. It's also possible that we would see better overall compression
ratios as larger regions of "real data" would improve the compressibility.

Finally, such an approach could dramatically improve swsusp performance
as each one of those zero pages requires a write syscall to reload, by
handling it as part of the packed PFN list we're able to fully avoid
that.

On ChromeOS we've observed a considerable number of in-use pages filled with
zeros. Today with hibernate it's entirely possible that saveable pages are just
zero filled. Since we're already copying pages word-by-word in do_copy_page it
becomes almost free to determine if a page was completely filled with zeros.

This change introduces a new bitmap which will track these zero pages. If a page
is zero it will not be included in the saved image, instead to track these zero
pages in the image file we will introduce a new flag which we will set on the
packed PFN list. When reading back in the image file we will detect these zero
page PFNs and rebuild the zero page bitmap.

When the image is being loaded through calls to write_next_page if we encounter
a zero page we will silently memset it to 0 and then continue on to the next
page. Given the implementation in snapshot_read_next/snapshot_write_next this
change  will be transparent to non-compressed/compressed and swsusp modes of
operation.

To provide some concrete numbers from simple ad-hoc testing, on a device which
was lightly in use we saw that:

PM: hibernation: Image created (964408 pages copied, 548304 zero pages)

Of the approximately 6.2GB of saveable pages 2.2GB (36%) were just zero filled
and could be tracked entirely within the packed PFN list. The savings would
obviously be much lower for lzo compressed images, but even in the case of
compression not copying pages across to the compression threads will still
speed things up. It's also possible that we would see better overall compression
ratios as larger regions of "real data" would improve the compressibility.

Finally, such an approach could dramatically improve swsusp performance
as each one of those zero pages requires a write syscall to reload, by
handling it as part of the packed PFN list we're able to fully avoid
that.
