Serge reported some crashes with CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX enabled
on a book3s32 machine.

Analysis shows two issues:
  - BATs addresses and sizes are not properly aligned.
  - There is a gap between the last address covered by BATs and the
    first address covered by pages.

Memory mapped with DBATs:
0: 0xc0000000-0xc07fffff 0x00000000 Kernel RO coherent
1: 0xc0800000-0xc0bfffff 0x00800000 Kernel RO coherent

This patch fixes both issues. With the patch, we get the following
which is as expected:

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
 "A one-liner to make our Radix MMU support depend on HUGETLB_PAGE. We
  use some of the hugetlb inlines (eg. pud_huge()) when operating on the
  linear mapping and if they're compiled into empty wrappers we can
  corrupt memory.

  Then two fixes to our VFIO IOMMU code. The first is not a regression
  but fixes the locking to avoid a user-triggerable deadlock.

  The second does fix a regression since rc1, and depends on the first
  fix. It makes it possible to run guests with large amounts of memory
  again (~256GB).

  Thanks to Alexey Kardashevskiy"

When called with vmas_arg==NULL, get_user_pages_longterm() allocates
an array of nr_pages*8 which can easily get greater that the max order,
for example, registering memory for a 256GB guest does this and fails
in __alloc_pages_nodemask().

This adds a loop over chunks of entries to fit the max order limit.

<id>eb9d7a62c38628ab0ba6e59d22d7cb7930e415d1</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently mm_iommu_do_alloc() is called in 2 cases:
- VFIO_IOMMU_SPAPR_REGISTER_MEMORY ioctl() for normal memory:
	this locks &amp;mem_list_mutex and then locks mm::mmap_sem
	several times when adjusting locked_vm or pinning pages;
- vfio_pci_nvgpu_regops::mmap() for GPU memory:
	this is called with mm::mmap_sem held already and it locks
	&amp;mem_list_mutex.

So one can craft a userspace program to do special ioctl and mmap in
2 threads concurrently and cause a deadlock which lockdep warns about
(below).

We did not hit this yet because QEMU constructs the machine in a single
thread.

This moves the overlap check next to where the new entry is added and
reduces the amount of time spent with &amp;mem_list_mutex held.

This moves locked_vm adjustment from under &amp;mem_list_mutex.

This relies on mm_iommu_adjust_locked_vm() doing nothing when entries==0.

This is one of the lockdep warnings:

Currently mm_iommu_do_alloc() is called in 2 cases:
- VFIO_IOMMU_SPAPR_REGISTER_MEMORY ioctl() for normal memory:
	this locks &amp;mem_list_mutex and then locks mm::mmap_sem
	several times when adjusting locked_vm or pinning pages;
- vfio_pci_nvgpu_regops::mmap() for GPU memory:
	this is called with mm::mmap_sem held already and it locks
	&amp;mem_list_mutex.

So one can craft a userspace program to do special ioctl and mmap in
2 threads concurrently and cause a deadlock which lockdep warns about
(below).

We did not hit this yet because QEMU constructs the machine in a single
thread.

This moves the overlap check next to where the new entry is added and
reduces the amount of time spent with &amp;mem_list_mutex held.

This moves locked_vm adjustment from under &amp;mem_list_mutex.

This relies on mm_iommu_adjust_locked_vm() doing nothing when entries==0.

This is one of the lockdep warnings:

<title>powerpc/mm/radix: Make Radix require HUGETLB_PAGE</title>

Joel reported weird crashes using skiroot_defconfig, in his case we
jumped into an NX page:

  kernel tried to execute exec-protected page (c000000002bff4f0) - exploit attempt? (uid: 0)
  BUG: Unable to handle kernel instruction fetch
  Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000002bff4f0

Looking at the disassembly, we had simply branched to that address:

  c000000000c001bc  49fff335    bl     c000000002bff4f0

But that didn't match the original kernel image:

  c000000000c001bc  4bfff335    bl     c000000000bff4f0 &lt;kobject_get+0x8&gt;

When STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is enabled, and we're using the radix MMU, we
call radix__change_memory_range() late in boot to change page
protections. We do that both to mark rodata read only and also to mark
init text no-execute. That involves walking the kernel page tables,
and clearing _PAGE_WRITE or _PAGE_EXEC respectively.

With radix we may use hugepages for the linear mapping, so the code in
radix__change_memory_range() uses eg. pmd_huge() to test if it has
found a huge mapping, and if so it stops the page table walk and
changes the PMD permissions.

However if the kernel is built without HUGETLBFS support, pmd_huge()
is just a #define that always returns 0. That causes the code in
radix__change_memory_range() to incorrectly interpret the PMD value as
a pointer to a PTE page rather than as a PTE at the PMD level.

We can see this using `dv` in xmon which also uses pmd_huge():

  0:mon&gt; dv c000000000000000
  pgd  @ 0xc000000001740000
  pgdp @ 0xc000000001740000 = 0x80000000ffffb009
  pudp @ 0xc0000000ffffb000 = 0x80000000ffffa009
  pmdp @ 0xc0000000ffffa000 = 0xc00000000000018f   &lt;- this is a PTE
  ptep @ 0xc000000000000100 = 0xa64bb17da64ab07d   &lt;- kernel text

The end result is we treat the value at 0xc000000000000100 as a PTE
and clear _PAGE_WRITE or _PAGE_EXEC, potentially corrupting the code
at that address.

In Joel's specific case we cleared the sign bit in the offset of the
branch, causing a backward branch to turn into a forward branch which
caused us to branch into a non-executable page. However the exact
nature of the crash depends on kernel version, compiler version, and
other factors.

We need to fix radix__change_memory_range() to not use accessors that
depend on HUGETLBFS, but we also have radix memory hotplug code that
uses pmd_huge() etc that will also need fixing. So for now just
disallow the broken combination of Radix with HUGETLBFS disabled.

The only defconfig we have that is affected is skiroot_defconfig, so
turn on HUGETLBFS there so that it still gets Radix.

Add the io_uring and pidfd_send_signal system calls to all architectures.

These system calls are designed to handle both native and compat tasks,
so all entries are the same across architectures, only arm-compat and
the generic tale still use an old format.
