Wire up the new clone3 syscall for MIPS, using save_static_function() to
generate a wrapper that saves registers $s0-$s7 prior to invoking the
generic sys_clone3 function just like we do for plain old clone.

Tested atop 64r6el_defconfig using o32, n32 &amp; n64 builds of the simple
test program from:

Commit 171a9bae68c7 ("staging/octeon: Allow test build on !MIPS") moved
the inclusion of a bunch of headers by various files in the Octeon
ethernet driver into a common header, but in doing so it changed the
order in which those headers are included.

Prior to the referenced commit drivers/staging/octeon/ethernet.c
included asm/octeon/cvmx-pip.h before asm/octeon/cvmx-ipd.h, which makes
use of the CVMX_PIP_SFT_RST definition pulled in by the former. After
commit 171a9bae68c7 ("staging/octeon: Allow test build on !MIPS") we
pull in asm/octeon/cvmx-ipd.h first &amp; builds fail with:

  In file included from drivers/staging/octeon/octeon-ethernet.h:27,

Fix this by having asm/octeon/cvmx-ipd.h include the
asm/octeon/cvmx-pip-defs.h header that it is reliant upon, rather than
requiring its users to pull in that header before it.

<title>mm: treewide: clarify pgtable_page_{ctor,dtor}() naming</title>

<content type='text'>
The naming of pgtable_page_{ctor,dtor}() seems to have confused a few
people, and until recently arm64 used these erroneously/pointlessly for
other levels of page table.

To make it incredibly clear that these only apply to the PTE level, and to
align with the naming of pgtable_pmd_page_{ctor,dtor}(), let's rename them
to pgtable_pte_page_{ctor,dtor}().

These changes were generated with the following shell script:

----
git grep -lw 'pgtable_page_.tor' | while read FILE; do
    sed -i '{s/pgtable_page_ctor/pgtable_pte_page_ctor/}' $FILE;
    sed -i '{s/pgtable_page_dtor/pgtable_pte_page_dtor/}' $FILE;
done
----

... with the documentation re-flowed to remain under 80 columns, and
whitespace fixed up in macros to keep backslashes aligned.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

mips uses a top-down layout by default that exactly fits the generic
functions, so get rid of arch specific code and use the generic version by
selecting ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_TOPDOWN_MMAP_LAYOUT.

As ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_TOPDOWN_MMAP_LAYOUT selects ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE,
use the generic version of arch_randomize_brk since it also fits.  Note
that this commit also removes the possibility for mips to have elf
randomization and no MMU: without MMU, the security added by randomization
is worth nothing.

Both pgtable_cache_init() and pgd_cache_init() are used to initialize kmem
cache for page table allocations on several architectures that do not use
PAGE_SIZE tables for one or more levels of the page table hierarchy.

Most architectures do not implement these functions and use __weak default
NOP implementation of pgd_cache_init().  Since there is no such default
for pgtable_cache_init(), its empty stub is duplicated among most
architectures.

Rename the definitions of pgd_cache_init() to pgtable_cache_init() and
drop empty stubs of pgtable_cache_init().

Patch series "mm: remove quicklist page table caches".

A while ago Nicholas proposed to remove quicklist page table caches [1].

I've rebased his patch on the curren upstream and switched ia64 and sh to
use generic versions of PTE allocation.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190711030339.20892-1-npiggin@gmail.com

This patch (of 3):

Remove page table allocator "quicklists".  These have been around for a
long time, but have not got much traction in the last decade and are only
used on ia64 and sh architectures.

The numbers in the initial commit look interesting but probably don't
apply anymore.  If anybody wants to resurrect this it's in the git
history, but it's unhelpful to have this code and divergent allocator
behaviour for minor archs.

Also it might be better to instead make more general improvements to page
allocator if this is still so slow.

Pull MIPS updates from Paul Burton:
 "Main MIPS changes:

   - boot_mem_map is removed, providing a nice cleanup made possible by
     the recent removal of bootmem.

   - Some fixes to atomics, in general providing compiler barriers for
     smp_mb__{before,after}_atomic plus fixes specific to Loongson CPUs
     or MIPS32 systems using cmpxchg64().

   - Conversion to the new generic VDSO infrastructure courtesy of
     Vincenzo Frascino.

   - Removal of undefined behavior in set_io_port_base(), fixing the
     behavior of some MIPS kernel configurations when built with recent
     clang versions.

   - Initial MIPS32 huge page support, functional on at least Ingenic
     SoCs.

   - pte_special() is now supported for some configurations, allowing
     among other things generic fast GUP to be used.

   - Miscellaneous fixes &amp; cleanups.

  And platform specific changes:

   - Major improvements to Ingenic SoC support from Paul Cercueil,
     mostly enabled by the inclusion of the new TCU (timer-counter unit)
     drivers he's spent a very patient year or so working on. Plus some
     fixes for X1000 SoCs from Zhou Yanjie.

   - Netgear R6200 v1 systems are now supported by the bcm47xx platform.

Commit 61cbfff4b1a7 ("MIPS: pte_special()/pte_mkspecial() support")
added a _PAGE_SPECIAL bit to the pgprot bits of our PTEs. Unfortunately
for MIPS32 configurations with RiXi support this pushed the number of
pgprot bits to 13. Since the PFN field in EntryLo begins at bit 12 this
results in us shifting the most significant bit of the physical address
beyond the end of the PTE, leading any mapped access to a physical
address above 2GB to incorrectly access an address 2GB lower than
intended.

For now, disable the pte_special() support for MIPS32 configurations
that support RiXi.
