Dave Hansen 60f583d56a x86: Do not try to sync identity map for non-mapped pages
kernel_map_sync_memtype() is called from a variety of contexts.  The
pat.c code that calls it seems to ensure that it is not called for
non-ram areas by checking via pat_pagerange_is_ram().  It is important
that it only be called on the actual identity map because there *IS*
no map to sync for highmem pages, or for memory holes.

The ioremap.c uses are not as careful as those from pat.c, and call
kernel_map_sync_memtype() on PCI space which is in the middle of the
kernel identity map _range_, but is not actually mapped.

This patch adds a check to kernel_map_sync_memtype() which probably
duplicates some of the checks already in pat.c.  But, it is necessary
for the ioremap.c uses and shouldn't hurt other callers.

I have reproduced this bug and this patch fixes it for me and the
original bug reporter:

Yinghai Lu 98e7a98997 x86, mm: Make sure to find a 2M free block for the first mapped area
Henrik reported that his MacAir 3.1 would not boot with

|    x86, mm: setup page table in top-down

It turns out that we do not calculate the real_end properly:
We try to get 2M size with 4K alignment, and later will round down
to 2M, so we will get less then 2M for first mapping, in extreme
case could be only 4K only. In Henrik's system it has (1M-32K) as
last usable rage is [mem 0x7f9db000-0x7fef8fff].

The problem is exposed when EFI booting have several holes and it
will force mapping to use PTE instead as we only map usable areas.

To fix it, just make it be 2M aligned, so we can be guaranteed to be
able to use large pages to map it.

Don Morris reproduced on a HP z620 workstation, and bisected it to
commit e8d1955258 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock
is ready")

It turns out movable_map has some problems, and it breaks several things

1. numa_init is called several times, NOT just for srat. so those
	nodes_clear(numa_nodes_parsed)
	memset(&numa_meminfo, 0, sizeof(numa_meminfo))
   can not be just removed.  Need to consider sequence is: numaq, srat, amd, dummy.
   and make fall back path working.

2. simply split acpi_numa_init to early_parse_srat.
   a. that early_parse_srat is NOT called for ia64, so you break ia64.
   b.  for (i = 0; i < MAX_LOCAL_APIC; i++)
	     set_apicid_to_node(i, NUMA_NO_NODE)
     still left in numa_init. So it will just clear result from early_parse_srat.
     it should be moved before that....
   c.  it breaks ACPI_TABLE_OVERIDE...as the acpi table scan is moved
       early before override from INITRD is settled.

3. that patch TITLE is total misleading, there is NO x86 in the title,
   but it changes critical x86 code. It caused x86 guys did not
   pay attention to find the problem early. Those patches really should
   be routed via tip/x86/mm.

4. after that commit, following range can not use movable ram:
  a. real_mode code.... well..funny, legacy Node0 [0,1M) could be hot-removed?
  b. initrd... it will be freed after booting, so it could be on movable...
  c. crashkernel for kdump...: looks like we can not put kdump kernel above 4G
	anymore.
  d. init_mem_mapping: can not put page table high anymore.
  e. initmem_init: vmemmap can not be high local node anymore. That is
     not good.

If node is hotplugable, the mem related range like page table and
vmemmap could be on the that node without problem and should be on that
node.

We have workaround patch that could fix some problems, but some can not
be fixed.

So just remove that offending commit and related ones including:

 f7210e6c4a ("mm/memblock.c: use CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP to
    protect movablecore_map in memblock_overlaps_region().")

 01a178a94e ("acpi, memory-hotplug: support getting hotplug info from
    SRAT")

 27168d38fa ("acpi, memory-hotplug: extend movablemem_map ranges to
    the end of node")

 e8d1955258 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock is
    ready")

 fb06bc8e5f ("page_alloc: bootmem limit with movablecore_map")

 42f47e27e7 ("page_alloc: make movablemem_map have higher priority")

 6981ec3114 ("page_alloc: introduce zone_movable_limit[] to keep
    movable limit for nodes")

 34b71f1e04 ("page_alloc: add movable_memmap kernel parameter")

 4d59a75125 ("x86: get pg_data_t's memory from other node")

Later we should have patches that will make sure kernel put page table
and vmemmap on local node ram instead of push them down to node0.  Also
need to find way to put other kernel used ram to local node ram.

Andrea Arcangeli a8aed3e075 x86/mm/pageattr: Prevent PSE and GLOABL leftovers to confuse pmd/pte_present and pmd_huge
Without this patch any kernel code that reads kernel memory in
non present kernel pte/pmds (as set by pageattr.c) will crash.

With this kernel code:

static struct page *crash_page;
static unsigned long *crash_address;
[..]
	crash_page = alloc_pages(GFP_KERNEL, 9);
	crash_address = page_address(crash_page);
	if (set_memory_np((unsigned long)crash_address, 1))
		printk("set_memory_np failure\n");
[..]

The kernel will crash if inside the "crash tool" one would try
to read the memory at the not present address.

crash> p crash_address
crash_address = $8 = (long unsigned int *) 0xffff88023c000000
crash> rd 0xffff88023c000000
[ *lockup* ]

The lockup happens because _PAGE_GLOBAL and _PAGE_PROTNONE
shares the same bit, and pageattr leaves _PAGE_GLOBAL set on a
kernel pte which is then mistaken as _PAGE_PROTNONE (so
pte_present returns true by mistake and the kernel fault then
gets confused and loops).

With THP the same can happen after we taught pmd_present to
check _PAGE_PROTNONE and _PAGE_PSE in commit
027ef6c878 ("mm: thp: fix pmd_present for
split_huge_page and PROT_NONE with THP").  THP has the same
problem with _PAGE_GLOBAL as the 4k pages, but it also has a
problem with _PAGE_PSE, which must be cleared too.

After the patch is applied copy_user correctly returns -EFAULT
and doesn't lockup anymore.

crash> p crash_address
crash_address = $9 = (long unsigned int *) 0xffff88023c000000
crash> rd 0xffff88023c000000

Andrea Arcangeli 954f857187 Revert "x86, mm: Make spurious_fault check explicitly check explicitly check the PRESENT bit"
I got a report for a minor regression introduced by commit
027ef6c878 ("mm: thp: fix pmd_present for split_huge_page and
PROT_NONE with THP").

So the problem is, pageattr creates kernel pagetables (pte and
pmds) that breaks pte_present/pmd_present and the patch above
exposed this invariant breakage for pmd_present.

The same problem already existed for the pte and pte_present and
it was fixed by commit 660a293ea9 ("x86, mm: Make
spurious_fault check explicitly check the PRESENT bit") (if it
wasn't for that commit, it wouldn't even be a regression).  That
fix avoids the pagefault to use pte_present.  I could follow
through by stopping using pmd_present/pmd_huge too.

However I think it's more robust to fix pageattr and to clear
the PSE/GLOBAL bitflags too in addition to the present bitflag.
So the kernel page fault can keep using the regular
pte_present/pmd_present/pmd_huge.

The confusion arises because _PAGE_GLOBAL and _PAGE_PROTNONE are
sharing the same bit, and in the pmd case we pretend _PAGE_PSE
to be set only in present pmds (to facilitate split_huge_page
final tlb flush).

Wen Congyang 942670d0dc x86/mm/numa: Don't check if node is NUMA_NO_NODE
If we aren't debugging per_cpu maps, the cpu's node is stored in
per_cpu variable numa_node.  If `node' is NUMA_NO_NODE, it means
the caller wants to clear the cpu's node.  So we should also
call set_cpu_numa_node() in this case.

Tang Chen 01a178a94e acpi, memory-hotplug: support getting hotplug info from SRAT
We now provide an option for users who don't want to specify physical
memory address in kernel commandline.

         /*
          * For movablemem_map=acpi:
          *
          * SRAT:                |_____| |_____| |_________| |_________| ......
          * node id:                0       1         1           2
          * hotpluggable:           n       y         y           n
          * movablemem_map:              |_____| |_________|
          *
          * Using movablemem_map, we can prevent memblock from allocating memory
          * on ZONE_MOVABLE at boot time.
          */

So user just specify movablemem_map=acpi, and the kernel will use
hotpluggable info in SRAT to determine which memory ranges should be set
as ZONE_MOVABLE.

If all the memory ranges in SRAT is hotpluggable, then no memory can be
used by kernel.  But before parsing SRAT, memblock has already reserve
some memory ranges for other purposes, such as for kernel image, and so
on.  We cannot prevent kernel from using these memory.  So we need to
exclude these ranges even if these memory is hotpluggable.

Furthermore, there could be several memory ranges in the single node
which the kernel resides in.  We may skip one range that have memory
reserved by memblock, but if the rest of memory is too small, then the
kernel will fail to boot.  So, make the whole node which the kernel
resides in un-hotpluggable.  Then the kernel has enough memory to use.

NOTE: Using this way will cause NUMA performance down because the
      whole node will be set as ZONE_MOVABLE, and kernel cannot use memory
      on it.  If users don't want to lose NUMA performance, just don't use
      it.

Tang Chen 27168d38fa acpi, memory-hotplug: extend movablemem_map ranges to the end of node
When implementing movablemem_map boot option, we introduced an array
movablemem_map.map[] to store the memory ranges to be set as
ZONE_MOVABLE.

Since ZONE_MOVABLE is the latst zone of a node, if user didn't specify
the whole node memory range, we need to extend it to the node end so
that we can use it to prevent memblock from allocating memory in the
ranges user didn't specify.

We now implement movablemem_map boot option like this:

        /*
         * For movablemem_map=nn[KMG]@ss[KMG]:
         *
         * SRAT:                |_____| |_____| |_________| |_________| ......
         * node id:                0       1         1           2
         * user specified:                |__|                 |___|
         * movablemem_map:                |___| |_________|    |______| ......
         *
         * Using movablemem_map, we can prevent memblock from allocating memory
         * on ZONE_MOVABLE at boot time.
         *
         * NOTE: In this case, SRAT info will be ingored.

Tang Chen e8d1955258 acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock is ready
On linux, the pages used by kernel could not be migrated.  As a result,
if a memory range is used by kernel, it cannot be hot-removed.  So if we
want to hot-remove memory, we should prevent kernel from using it.

The way now used to prevent this is specify a memory range by
movablemem_map boot option and set it as ZONE_MOVABLE.

But when the system is booting, memblock will allocate memory, and
reserve the memory for kernel.  And before we parse SRAT, and know the
node memory ranges, memblock is working.  And it may allocate memory in
ranges to be set as ZONE_MOVABLE.  This memory can be used by kernel,
and never be freed.

So, let's parse SRAT before memblock is called first.  And it is early
enough.

The first call of memblock_find_in_range_node() is in:

  setup_arch()
    |-->setup_real_mode()

so, this patch add a function early_parse_srat() to parse SRAT, and call
it before setup_real_mode() is called.

NOTE:

1) early_parse_srat() is called before numa_init(), and has initialized
   numa_meminfo.  So DO NOT clear numa_nodes_parsed in numa_init() and DO
   NOT zero numa_meminfo in numa_init(), otherwise we will lose memory
   numa info.

2) I don't know why using count of memory affinities parsed from SRAT
   as a return value in original acpi_numa_init().  So I add a static
   variable srat_mem_cnt to remember this count and use it as the return
   value of the new acpi_numa_init()

Yasuaki Ishimatsu 4d59a75125 x86: get pg_data_t's memory from other node
During the implementation of SRAT support, we met a problem.  In
setup_arch(), we have the following call series:

 1) memblock is ready;
 2) some functions use memblock to allocate memory;
 3) parse ACPI tables, such as SRAT.

Before 3), we don't know which memory is hotpluggable, and as a result,
we cannot prevent memblock from allocating hotpluggable memory.  So, in
2), there could be some hotpluggable memory allocated by memblock.

Now, we are trying to parse SRAT earlier, before memblock is ready.  But
I think we need more investigation on this topic.  So in this v5, I
dropped all the SRAT support, and v5 is just the same as v3, and it is
based on 3.8-rc3.

As we planned, we will support getting info from SRAT without users'
participation at last.  And we will post another patch-set to do so.

And also, I think for now, we can add this boot option as the first step
of supporting movable node.  Since Linux cannot migrate the direct
mapped pages, the only way for now is to limit the whole node containing
only movable memory.

Using SRAT is one way.  But even if we can use SRAT, users still need an
interface to enable/disable this functionality if they don't want to
loose their NUMA performance.  So I think, a user interface is always
needed.

For now, users can disable this functionality by not specifying the boot
option.  Later, we will post SRAT support, and add another option value
"movablecore_map=acpi" to using SRAT.

This patch:

If system can create movable node which all memory of the node is
allocated as ZONE_MOVABLE, setup_node_data() cannot allocate memory for
the node's pg_data_t.  So, use memblock_alloc_try_nid() instead of
memblock_alloc_nid() to retry when the first allocation fails.

Wen Congyang e13fe8695c cpu-hotplug,memory-hotplug: clear cpu_to_node() when offlining the node
When the node is offlined, there is no memory/cpu on the node.  If a
sleep task runs on a cpu of this node, it will be migrated to the cpu on
the other node.  So we can clear cpu-to-node mapping.

When a cpu is hotpluged, we call acpi_map_cpu2node() in
_acpi_map_lsapic() to store the cpu's node and apicid's node.  But we
don't clear the cpu's node in acpi_unmap_lsapic() when this cpu is
hotremoved.  If the node is also hotremoved, we will get the following

The reason is that the cpu's node is not NUMA_NO_NODE, we will call
alloc_pages_exact_node() to alloc memory on the node, but the node is
offlined.

If the node is onlined, we still need cpu's node.  For example: a task
on the cpu is sleeped when the cpu is hotremoved.  We will choose
another cpu to run this task when it is waked up.  If we know the cpu's
node, we will choose the cpu on the same node first.  So we should clear
cpu-to-node mapping when the node is offlined.

This patch only clears apicid-to-node mapping when the cpu is
hotremoved.

Introduce a new API vmemmap_free() to free and remove vmemmap

has to provide its own version of vmemmap_free(), just like
vmemmap_populate().

Note: vmemmap_free() is not implemented for ia64, ppc, s390, and sparc.

Wen Congyang ae9aae9eda memory-hotplug: common APIs to support page tables hot-remove
When memory is removed, the corresponding pagetables should alse be
removed.  This patch introduces some common APIs to support vmemmap
pagetable and x86_64 architecture direct mapping pagetable removing.

All pages of virtual mapping in removed memory cannot be freed if some
pages used as PGD/PUD include not only removed memory but also other
memory.  So this patch uses the following way to check whether a page
can be freed or not.

1) When removing memory, the page structs of the removed memory are
   filled with 0FD.

2) All page structs are filled with 0xFD on PT/PMD, PT/PMD can be
   cleared.  In this case, the page used as PT/PMD can be freed.

For direct mapping pages, update direct_pages_count[level] when we freed
their pagetables.  And do not free the pages again because they were
freed when offlining.

For vmemmap pages, free the pages and their pagetables.

For larger pages, do not split them into smaller ones because there is
no way to know if the larger page has been split.  As a result, there is
no way to decide when to split.  We deal the larger pages in the
following way:

1) For direct mapped pages, all the pages were freed when they were
   offlined.  And since menmory offline is done section by section, all
   the memory ranges being removed are aligned to PAGE_SIZE.  So only need
   to deal with unaligned pages when freeing vmemmap pages.

2) For vmemmap pages being used to store page_struct, if part of the
   larger page is still in use, just fill the unused part with 0xFD.  And
   when the whole page is fulfilled with 0xFD, then free the larger page.

Yasuaki Ishimatsu 46723bfa54 memory-hotplug: implement register_page_bootmem_info_section of sparse-vmemmap
For removing memmap region of sparse-vmemmap which is allocated bootmem,
memmap region of sparse-vmemmap needs to be registered by
get_page_bootmem().  So the patch searches pages of virtual mapping and
registers the pages by get_page_bootmem().

NOTE: register_page_bootmem_memmap() is not implemented for ia64,
      ppc, s390, and sparc.  So introduce CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE
      and revert register_page_bootmem_info_node() when platform doesn't
      support it.

      It's implemented by adding a new Kconfig option named
      CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE, which will be automatically selected
      by memory-hotplug feature fully supported archs(currently only on
      x86_64).

      Since we have 2 config options called MEMORY_HOTPLUG and
      MEMORY_HOTREMOVE used for memory hot-add and hot-remove separately,
      and codes in function register_page_bootmem_info_node() are only
      used for collecting infomation for hot-remove, so reside it under
      MEMORY_HOTREMOVE.

      Besides page_isolation.c selected by MEMORY_ISOLATION under
      MEMORY_HOTPLUG is also such case, move it too.

Pull x86 mm changes from Peter Anvin:
 "This is a huge set of several partly interrelated (and concurrently
  developed) changes, which is why the branch history is messier than
  one would like.

  The *really* big items are two humonguous patchsets mostly developed
  by Yinghai Lu at my request, which completely revamps the way we
  create initial page tables.  In particular, rather than estimating how
  much memory we will need for page tables and then build them into that
  memory -- a calculation that has shown to be incredibly fragile -- we
  now build them (on 64 bits) with the aid of a "pseudo-linear mode" --
  a #PF handler which creates temporary page tables on demand.

  This has several advantages:

  1. It makes it much easier to support things that need access to data
     very early (a followon patchset uses this to load microcode way
     early in the kernel startup).

  2. It allows the kernel and all the kernel data objects to be invoked
     from above the 4 GB limit.  This allows kdump to work on very large
     systems.

  3. It greatly reduces the difference between Xen and native (Xen's
     equivalent of the #PF handler are the temporary page tables created
     by the domain builder), eliminating a bunch of fragile hooks.

  The patch series also gets us a bit closer to W^X.

  Additional work in this pull is the 64-bit get_user() work which you
  were also involved with, and a bunch of cleanups/speedups to
  __phys_addr()/__pa()."

By just reversing the order memtest is using the test patterns,
an additional round to zero the memory is not necessary.

This might save up to a second or even more for setups which are

Mel Gorman 0ee364eb31 x86/mm: Check if PUD is large when validating a kernel address
A user reported the following oops when a backup process reads
/proc/kcore:

 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffbb00ff33b000
 IP: [<ffffffff8103157e>] kern_addr_valid+0xbe/0x110
 [...]

 Call Trace:
  [<ffffffff811b8aaa>] read_kcore+0x17a/0x370
  [<ffffffff811ad847>] proc_reg_read+0x77/0xc0
  [<ffffffff81151687>] vfs_read+0xc7/0x130
  [<ffffffff811517f3>] sys_read+0x53/0xa0
  [<ffffffff81449692>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b

Investigation determined that the bug triggered when reading
system RAM at the 4G mark. On this system, that was the first
address using 1G pages for the virt->phys direct mapping so the
PUD is pointing to a physical address, not a PMD page.

The problem is that the page table walker in kern_addr_valid() is
not checking pud_large() and treats the physical address as if
it was a PMD.  If it happens to look like pmd_none then it'll
silently fail, probably returning zeros instead of real data. If
the data happens to look like a present PMD though, it will be
walked resulting in the oops above.

This patch adds the necessary pud_large() check.

Unfortunately the problem was not readily reproducible and now
they are running the backup program without accessing
/proc/kcore so the patch has not been validated but I think it
makes sense.

Kees Cook e575a86fdc x86: Do not leak kernel page mapping locations
Without this patch, it is trivial to determine kernel page
mappings by examining the error code reported to dmesg[1].
Instead, declare the entire kernel memory space as a violation
of a present page.

Additionally, since show_unhandled_signals is enabled by
default, switch branch hinting to the more realistic
expectation, and unobfuscate the setting of the PF_PROT bit to
improve readability.

Dave Hansen f03574f2d5 x86-32, mm: Rip out x86_32 NUMA remapping code
This code was an optimization for 32-bit NUMA systems.

It has probably been the cause of a number of subtle bugs over
the years, although the conditions to excite them would have
been hard to trigger.  Essentially, we remap part of the kernel
linear mapping area, and then sometimes part of that area gets
freed back in to the bootmem allocator.  If those pages get
used by kernel data structures (say mem_map[] or a dentry),
there's no big deal.  But, if anyone ever tried to use the
linear mapping for these pages _and_ cared about their physical
address, bad things happen.

For instance, say you passed __GFP_ZERO to the page allocator
and then happened to get handed one of these pages, it zero the
remapped page, but it would make a pte to the _old_ page.
There are probably a hundred other ways that it could screw
with things.

We don't need to hang on to performance optimizations for
these old boxes any more.  All my 32-bit NUMA systems are long
dead and buried, and I probably had access to more than most
people.

This code is causing real things to break today:

	https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/9/376

I looked in to actually fixing this, but it requires surgery
to way too much brittle code, as well as stuff like
per_cpu_ptr_to_phys().

[ hpa: Cc: this for -stable, since it is a memory corruption issue.
  However, an alternative is to simply mark NUMA as depends BROKEN
  rather than EXPERIMENTAL in the X86_32 subclause... ]

H. Peter Anvin 8170e6bed4 x86, 64bit: Use a #PF handler to materialize early mappings on demand
Linear mode (CR0.PG = 0) is mutually exclusive with 64-bit mode; all
64-bit code has to use page tables.  This makes it awkward before we
have first set up properly all-covering page tables to access objects
that are outside the static kernel range.

So far we have dealt with that simply by mapping a fixed amount of
low memory, but that fails in at least two upcoming use cases:

1. We will support load and run kernel, struct boot_params, ramdisk,
   command line, etc. above the 4 GiB mark.
2. need to access ramdisk early to get microcode to update that as
   early possible.

We could use early_iomap to access them too, but it will make code to
messy and hard to be unified with 32 bit.

Hence, set up a #PF table and use a fixed number of buffers to set up
page tables on demand.  If the buffers fill up then we simply flush
them and start over.  These buffers are all in __initdata, so it does
not increase RAM usage at runtime.

Thus, with the help of the #PF handler, we can set the final kernel
mapping from blank, and switch to init_level4_pgt later.

During the switchover in head_64.S, before #PF handler is available,
we use three pages to handle kernel crossing 1G, 512G boundaries with
sharing page by playing games with page aliasing: the same page is
mapped twice in the higher-level tables with appropriate wraparound.
The kernel region itself will be properly mapped; other mappings may
be spurious.

early_make_pgtable is using kernel high mapping address to access pages
to set page table.

-v4: Add phys_base offset to make kexec happy, and add
	init_mapping_kernel()   - Yinghai
-v5: fix compiling with xen, and add back ident level3 and level2 for xen
     also move back init_level4_pgt from BSS to DATA again.
     because we have to clear it anyway.  - Yinghai
-v6: switch to init_level4_pgt in init_mem_mapping. - Yinghai
-v7: remove not needed clear_page for init_level4_page
     it is with fill 512,8,0 already in head_64.S  - Yinghai
-v8: we need to keep that handler alive until init_mem_mapping and don't
     let early_trap_init to trash that early #PF handler.
     So split early_trap_pf_init out and move it down. - Yinghai
-v9: switchover only cover kernel space instead of 1G so could avoid
     touch possible mem holes. - Yinghai
-v11: change far jmp back to far return to initial_code, that is needed
     to fix failure that is reported by Konrad on AMD systems.  - Yinghai

During debugging loading kernel above 4G, found that one page is not used

Dave Hansen d765653445 x86, mm: Create slow_virt_to_phys()
This is necessary because __pa() does not work on some kinds of
memory, like vmalloc() or the alloc_remap() areas on 32-bit
NUMA systems.  We have some functions to do conversions _like_
this in the vmalloc() code (like vmalloc_to_page()), but they
do not work on sizes other than 4k pages.  We would potentially
need to be able to handle all the page sizes that we use for
the kernel linear mapping (4k, 2M, 1G).

In practice, on 32-bit NUMA systems, the percpu areas get stuck
in the alloc_remap() area.  Any __pa() call on them will break
and basically return garbage.

This patch introduces a new function slow_virt_to_phys(), which
walks the kernel page tables on x86 and should do precisely
the same logical thing as __pa(), but actually work on a wider
range of memory.  It should work on the normal linear mapping,
vmalloc(), kmap(), etc...

Dave Hansen a25b931684 x86, mm: Make DEBUG_VIRTUAL work earlier in boot
The KVM code has some repeated bugs in it around use of __pa() on
per-cpu data.  Those data are not in an area on which using
__pa() is valid.  However, they are also called early enough in
boot that __vmalloc_start_set is not set, and thus the
CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL debugging does not catch them.

This adds a check to also verify __pa() calls against max_low_pfn,
which we can use earler in boot than is_vmalloc_addr().  However,
if we are super-early in boot, max_low_pfn=0 and this will trip
on every call, so also make sure that max_low_pfn is set before
we try to use it.

With this patch applied, CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL will actually
catch the bug I was chasing (and fix later in this series).

I'd love to find a generic way so that any __pa() call on percpu
areas could do a BUG_ON(), but there don't appear to be any nice
and easy ways to check if an address is a percpu one.  Anybody
have ideas on a way to do this?

Merge tag 'balancenuma-v11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mel/linux-balancenuma

Pull Automatic NUMA Balancing bare-bones from Mel Gorman:
 "There are three implementations for NUMA balancing, this tree
  (balancenuma), numacore which has been developed in tip/master and
  autonuma which is in aa.git.

  In almost all respects balancenuma is the dumbest of the three because
  its main impact is on the VM side with no attempt to be smart about
  scheduling.  In the interest of getting the ball rolling, it would be
  desirable to see this much merged for 3.8 with the view to building
  scheduler smarts on top and adapting the VM where required for 3.9.

  The most recent set of comparisons available from different people are

    mel:    https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/9/108
    mingo:  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/7/331
    tglx:   https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/437
    srikar: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/397

  The results are a mixed bag.  In my own tests, balancenuma does
  reasonably well.  It's dumb as rocks and does not regress against
  mainline.  On the other hand, Ingo's tests shows that balancenuma is
  incapable of converging for this workloads driven by perf which is bad
  but is potentially explained by the lack of scheduler smarts.  Thomas'
  results show balancenuma improves on mainline but falls far short of
  numacore or autonuma.  Srikar's results indicate we all suffer on a
  large machine with imbalanced node sizes.

  My own testing showed that recent numacore results have improved
  dramatically, particularly in the last week but not universally.
  We've butted heads heavily on system CPU usage and high levels of
  migration even when it shows that overall performance is better.
  There are also cases where it regresses.  Of interest is that for
  specjbb in some configurations it will regress for lower numbers of
  warehouses and show gains for higher numbers which is not reported by
  the tool by default and sometimes missed in treports.  Recently I
  reported for numacore that the JVM was crashing with
  NullPointerExceptions but currently it's unclear what the source of
  this problem is.  Initially I thought it was in how numacore batch
  handles PTEs but I'm no longer think this is the case.  It's possible
  numacore is just able to trigger it due to higher rates of migration.

  These reports were quite late in the cycle so I/we would like to start
  with this tree as it contains much of the code we can agree on and has
  not changed significantly over the last 2-3 weeks."

Linus Torvalds 11520e5e7c Revert "x86-64/efi: Use EFI to deal with platform wall clock (again)"
This reverts commit bd52276fa1 ("x86-64/efi: Use EFI to deal with
platform wall clock (again)"), and the two supporting commits:

  da5a108d05: "x86/kernel: remove tboot 1:1 page table creation code"

  185034e72d: "x86, efi: 1:1 pagetable mapping for virtual EFI calls")

as they all depend semantically on commit 53b87cf088 ("x86, mm:
Include the entire kernel memory map in trampoline_pgd") that got
reverted earlier due to the problems it caused.

This was pointed out by Yinghai Lu, and verified by me on my Macbook Air
that uses EFI.

Linus Torvalds be354f4081 Revert "x86, mm: Include the entire kernel memory map in trampoline_pgd"
This reverts commit 53b87cf088.

It causes odd bootup problems on x86-64.  Markus Trippelsdorf gets a
repeatable oops, and I see a non-repeatable oops (or constant stream of
messages that scroll off too quickly to read) that seems to go away with
this commit reverted.

So we don't know exactly what is wrong with the commit, but it's
definitely problematic, and worth reverting sooner rather than later.
