Mike Rapoport 50f11a8a46 arm64: switch to generic version of pte allocation
The PTE allocations in arm64 are identical to the generic ones modulo the
GFP flags.

Using the generic pte_alloc_one() functions ensures that the user page
tables are allocated with __GFP_ACCOUNT set.

The arm64 definition of PGALLOC_GFP is removed and replaced with
GFP_PGTABLE_USER for p[gum]d_alloc_one() for the user page tables and
GFP_PGTABLE_KERNEL for the kernel page tables. The KVM memory cache is now
using GFP_PGTABLE_USER.

The mappings created with create_pgd_mapping() are now using
GFP_PGTABLE_KERNEL.

The conversion to the generic version of pte_free_kernel() removes the NULL
check for pte.

The pte_free() version on arm64 is identical to the generic one and
can be simply dropped.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
