This was an optimization that made memcpy type benchmarks a little
faster on ancient (Circa 1998) IDT Winchip CPUs. In real-life
workloads, it wasn't even noticable, and I doubt anyone is running
benchmarks on 16 year old silicon any more.
Given this code has likely seen very little use over the last decade,
let's just remove it.

fallback to use normal non-MSR based calibration.

BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff880e9ca60580 idx:1 val:1
The issue could not be reproduced under an HVM instance with the same
kernel, so it appears to be exclusive to paravirtual Xen guests. He
bisected the problem to commit 1667918b64 ("mm: numa: clear numa
hinting information on mprotect") that was also included in 3.12-stable.
The problem was related to how xen translates ptes because it was not
accounting for the _PAGE_NUMA bit. This patch splits pte_present to add
a pteval_present helper for use by xen so both bare metal and xen use
the same code when checking if a PTE is present.

The grant mapping API does m2p_override unnecessarily: only gntdev needs it,
for blkback and future netback patches it just cause a lock contention, as
those pages never go to userspace. Therefore this series does the following:
- the original functions were renamed to __gnttab_[un]map_refs, with a new
parameter m2p_override
- based on m2p_override either they follow the original behaviour, or just set
the private flag and call set_phys_to_machine
- gnttab_[un]map_refs are now a wrapper to call __gnttab_[un]map_refs with
m2p_override false
- a new function gnttab_[un]map_refs_userspace provides the old behaviour
It also removes a stray space from page.h and change ret to 0 if
XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap, as that is the only possible return value
there.
v2:
- move the storing of the old mfn in page->index to gnttab_map_refs
- move the function header update to a separate patch
v3:
- a new approach to retain old behaviour where it needed
- squash the patches into one
v4:
- move out the common bits from m2p* functions, and pass pfn/mfn as parameter
- clear page->private before doing anything with the page, so m2p_find_override
won't race with this
v5:
- change return value handling in __gnttab_[un]map_refs
- remove a stray space in page.h
- add detail why ret = 0 now at some places
v6:
- don't pass pfn to m2p* functions, just get it locally

The SOFT_DIRTY bit shows that the content of memory was changed after a
defined point in the past. mprotect() doesn't change the content of
memory, so it must not change the SOFT_DIRTY bit.
This bug causes a malfunction: on the first iteration all pages are
dumped. On other iterations only pages with the SOFT_DIRTY bit are
dumped. So if the SOFT_DIRTY bit is cleared from a page by mistake, the
page is not dumped and its content will be restored incorrectly.
This patch does nothing with _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY, becase pte_modify()
is called only for present pages.

The paravirt thunks use a hack of using a static reference to a static
function to reference that function from the top level statement.
This assumes that gcc always generates static function names in a specific
format, which is not necessarily true.
Simply make these functions global and asmlinkage or __visible. This way the
static __used variables are not needed and everything works.
Functions with arguments are __visible to keep the register calling
convention on 32bit.

The paravirt patching code assumes that it can reference a
local assembler label between two different top level assembler
statements. This does not work with LTO
where the assembler code may end up in different assembler files.
Replace it with extern / global /asm linkage labels.
This also removes one redundant copy of the macro.

When Hyper-V hypervisor leaves are present, KVM must relocate
its own leaves at 0x40000100, because Windows does not look for
Hyper-V leaves at indices other than 0x40000000. In this case,
the KVM features are at 0x40000101, but the old code would always
look at 0x40000001.
Fix by using kvm_cpuid_base(). This also requires making the
function non-inline, since kvm_cpuid_base() is static.

max_low_pfn_mapped is different from max_pfn_mapped.
