I've just discovered that the useful-sounding has_transparent_hugepage()
is actually an architecture-dependent minefield: on some arches it only
builds if CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y, on others it's also there when
not, but on some of those (arm and arm64) it then gives the wrong
answer; and on mips alone it's marked __init, which would crash if
called later (but so far it has not been called later).
Straighten this out: make it available to all configs, with a sensible
default in asm-generic/pgtable.h, removing its definitions from those
arches (arc, arm, arm64, sparc, tile) which are served by the default,
adding #define has_transparent_hugepage has_transparent_hugepage to
those (mips, powerpc, s390, x86) which need to override the default at
runtime, and removing the __init from mips (but maybe that kind of code
should be avoided after init: set a static variable the first time it's
called).

Since the CTOP is SMT hardware multi-threaded, we need to hint
the HW that now will be a very good time to do a hardware
thread context switching. This is done by issuing the schd.rw
instruction (binary coded here so as to not require specific
revision of GCC to build the kernel).
sched.rw means that Thread becomes eligible for execution by
the threads scheduler after all pending read/write
transactions were completed.

If we hold rwlock and interrupt occures we may
end up spinning on it for ever during softirq.
Note that this lock is an internal lock
and since the lock is free to be used from any context,
the lock needs to be IRQ-safe.
Below you may see an example for interrupt we get while
nl_table_lock is holding its rw->lock_mutex and we spinned
on it for ever.
The concept for the fix was taken from SPARC.

On ARC, lower 2G of address space is translated and used for
- user vaddr space (region 0 to 5)
- unused kernel-user gutter (region 6)
- kernel vaddr space (region 7)
where each region simply represents 256MB of address space.
The kernel vaddr space of 256MB is used to implement vmalloc, modules
So far this was enough, but not on EZChip system with 4K CPUs (given
that per cpu mechanism uses vmalloc for allocating chunks)
So allow VMALLOC_SIZE to be configurable by expanding down into the unused
kernel-user gutter region which at default 256M was excessive anyways.
Also use _BITUL() to fix a build error since PGDIR_SIZE cannot use "1UL"
as called from assembly code in mm/tlbex.S

ARC Timers so far have been handled as "legacy" w/o explicit description
in DT. This poses challenge for newer platforms wanting to use them.
This series will eventually help move timers over to DT.
This patch does a small change of using a CPU notifier to set clockevent
on non-boot CPUs. So explicit setup is done only on boot CPU (which will
later be done by DT)

- The idea is to remove the API usage since it has a subltle
design flaw - relies on being called on cpu0 first. This is true for
some early per cpu irqs such as TIMER/IPI, but not for late probed
per cpu peripherals such a perf. And it's usage in perf has already
bitten us once: see c6317bc7c5
("ARCv2: perf: Ensure perf intr gets enabled on all cores") where we
ended up open coding it anyways
- The seeming duplication will go away once we start using cpu notifier
for timer setup

Initial HIGHMEM support on ARC was introduced for PAE40 where the low
memory (0x8000_0000 based) and high memory (0x1_0000_0000) were
physically contiguous. So CONFIG_FLATMEM sufficed (despite a peipheral
hole in the middle, which wasted a bit of struct page memory, but things
worked).
However w/o PAE, highmem was not possible and we could only reach
~1.75GB of DDR. Now there is a use case to access ~4GB of DDR w/o PAE40
The idea is to have low memory at canonical 0x8000_0000 and highmem
at 0 so enire 4GB address space is available for physical addressing
This needs additional platform/interconnect mapping to convert
the non contiguous physical addresses into linear bus adresses.
From Linux point of view, non contiguous divide means FLATMEM no
longer works and DISCONTIGMEM is needed to track the pfns in the 2
regions.
This scheme would also work for PAE40, only better in that we don't
waste struct page memory for the peripheral hole.
The DT description will be something like
memory {
...
reg = <0x80000000 0x200000000 /* 512MB: lowmem */
0x00000000 0x10000000>; /* 256MB: highmem */
}

So a benign looking cleanup which macro'ized PAGE_SHIFT shifts turned
out to be bad (since it was done non-sensically across the board).
It caused boot failures with PAE40 as forced cast to (unsigned long)
from newly introduced virt_to_pfn() was causing truncatiion of the
(long long) pte/paddr values.
It is OK to use this in accessors dealing with kernel virtual address,
pointers etc, but not for PTE values themelves.

While reviewing a different change to asm-generic/io.h Arnd spotted that
ARC ioread32 and ioread32be both of which come from asm-generic versions
are not symmetrical in terms of calling the io barriers.
generic ioread32 -> ARC readl() [ has barriers]
generic ioread32be -> __be32_to_cpu(__raw_readl()) [ lacks barriers]
While generic ioread32be is being remediated to call readl(), that involves
a swab32(), causing double swaps on ioread32be() on Big Endian systems.
So provide our versions of big endian IO accessors to ensure io barrier
calls while also keeping them optimal

- The asm helpers for calling into irq tracer were missing
- Add calls to above helpers in low level assembly entry code for ARCv2
- irq_save() uses CLRI to disable interrupts and returns the prev interrupt
state (in STATUS32) in a specific encoding (and not the raw value of
STATUS32). This is usable with SETI in irq_restore(). However
save_flags() reads the raw value of STATUS32 which doesn't pair with
irq_save/restore() and thus needs fixing.

During mmaping of frame-buffer pages to user-space
fb_protect() is called to set proper page settings.
In case of ARC we need to mark pages that are mmaped to
user as uncached because of 2 reasons:
* Huge amount of data if passing through data cache will
thrash cache a lot making cache almost useless for other
less traffic hungry processes.
* Data written by user in FB will be immediately available for
hardware (such as PGU etc) without requirements to flush data
cache regularly.
