Introduce a helper pgtable_gfp_flags() which
just returns the current gfp flags and adds
__GFP_ACCOUNT to account for page table allocation.
The generic helper is added to include/asm/pgalloc.h
and has two variants - WARNING ugly bits ahead
1. If the header is included from a module, no check
for mm == &init_mm is done, since init_mm is not
exported
2. For kernel includes, the check is done and required
see (3e79ec7 arch: x86: charge page tables to kmemcg)
The fundamental assumption is that no module should be
doing pgd/pud/pmd and pte alloc's on behalf of init_mm
directly.
NOTE: This adds an overhead to pmd/pud/pgd allocations
similar to x86. The other alternative was to implement
pmd_alloc_kernel/pud_alloc_kernel and pgd_alloc_kernel
with their offset variants.
For 4k page size, pte_alloc_one no longer calls
pte_alloc_one_kernel.

__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations.
{pud,pmd}_alloc_one are allocating from {PGT,PUD}_CACHE initialized in
pgtable_cache_init which doesn't have larger than sizeof(void *) << 12
size and that fits into !costly allocation request size.
PGALLOC_GFP is used only in radix__pgd_alloc which uses either order-0
or order-4 requests. The first one doesn't need the flag while the
second does. Drop __GFP_REPEAT from PGALLOC_GFP and add it for the
order-4 one.
This means that this flag has never been actually useful here because it
has always been used only for PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY requests.

This is the third version of the patchset previously sent [1]. I have
basically only rebased it on top of 4.7-rc1 tree and dropped "dm: get
rid of superfluous gfp flags" which went through dm tree. I am sending
it now because it is tree wide and chances for conflicts are reduced
considerably when we want to target rc2. I plan to send the next step
and rename the flag and move to a better semantic later during this
release cycle so we will have a new semantic ready for 4.8 merge window
hopefully.
Motivation:
While working on something unrelated I've checked the current usage of
__GFP_REPEAT in the tree. It seems that a majority of the usage is and
always has been bogus because __GFP_REPEAT has always been about costly
high order allocations while we are using it for order-0 or very small
orders very often. It seems that a big pile of them is just a
copy&paste when a code has been adopted from one arch to another.
I think it makes some sense to get rid of them because they are just
making the semantic more unclear. Please note that GFP_REPEAT is
documented as
* __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt
* _might_ fail. This depends upon the particular VM implementation.
while !costly requests have basically nofail semantic. So one could
reasonably expect that order-0 request with __GFP_REPEAT will not loop
for ever. This is not implemented right now though.
I would like to move on with __GFP_REPEAT and define a better semantic
for it.
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT origin/master | wc -l
111
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT | wc -l
36
So we are down to the third after this patch series. The remaining
places really seem to be relying on __GFP_REPEAT due to large allocation
requests. This still needs some double checking which I will do later
after all the simple ones are sorted out.
I am touching a lot of arch specific code here and I hope I got it right
but as a matter of fact I even didn't compile test for some archs as I
do not have cross compiler for them. Patches should be quite trivial to
review for stupid compile mistakes though. The tricky parts are usually
hidden by macro definitions and thats where I would appreciate help from
arch maintainers.

This patch (of 19):
__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations. Yet we
have the full kernel tree with its usage for apparently order-0
allocations. This is really confusing because __GFP_REPEAT is
explicitly documented to allow allocation failures which is a weaker
semantic than the current order-0 has (basically nofail).
Let's simply drop __GFP_REPEAT from those places. This would allow to
identify place which really need allocator to retry harder and formulate
a more specific semantic for what the flag is supposed to do actually.

Even though a tlb_flush() does a flush with invalidate all cache,
we can end up doing an RCU page table free before calling tlb_flush().
That means we can have page walk cache entries even after we free the
page table pages. This can result in us doing wrong page table walk.
Avoid this by doing pwc flush on every page table free. We can't batch
the pwc flush, because the rcu call back function where we free the
page table pages doesn't have information of the mmu gather. Thus we
have to do a pwc on every page table page freed.
Note: I also removed the dummy tlb_flush_pgtable call functions for
hash 32.

This patch switches 4K Linux page size config to use pte_t * type
instead of struct page * for pgtable_t. This simplifies the code a lot
and helps in consolidating both 64K and 4K page allocator routines. The
changes should not have any impact, because we already store physical
address in the upper level page table tree and that implies we already
do struct page * to physical address conversion.
One change to note here is we move the pgtable_page_dtor() call for
nohash to pte_fragment_free_mm(). The nohash related change is due to
the related changes in pgtable_64.c.

This patch start to make a book3s variant for pgalloc headers. We have
multiple book3s specific changes such as:
* 4 level page table
* store physical address in higher level table
* use pte_t * for pgtable_t
Having a book3s64 specific variant helps to keep code simpler and remove
lots of #ifdef around code.
