f2abeef9fd mm: clean up per architecture MM hook header files
Commit 2ae416b142 ("mm: new mm hook framework") introduced an empty
header file (mm-arch-hooks.h) for every architecture, even those which
doesn't need to define mm hooks.

As suggested by Geert Uytterhoeven, this could be cleaned through the use
of a generic header file included via each per architecture
asm/include/Kbuild file.

The PowerPC architecture is not impacted here since this architecture has
to defined the arch_remap MM hook.

2ae416b142 mm: new mm hook framework
CRIU is recreating the process memory layout by remapping the checkpointee
memory area on top of the current process (criu).  This includes remapping
the vDSO to the place it has at checkpoint time.

However some architectures like powerpc are keeping a reference to the
vDSO base address to build the signal return stack frame by calling the
vDSO sigreturn service.  So once the vDSO has been moved, this reference
is no more valid and the signal frame built later are not usable.

This patch serie is introducing a new mm hook framework, and a new
arch_remap hook which is called when mremap is done and the mm lock still
hold.  The next patch is adding the vDSO remap and unmap tracking to the
powerpc architecture.

This patch (of 3):

This patch introduces a new set of header file to manage mm hooks:
- per architecture empty header file (arch/x/include/asm/mm-arch-hooks.h)
- a generic header (include/linux/mm-arch-hooks.h)

The architecture which need to overwrite a hook as to redefine it in its
header file, while architecture which doesn't need have nothing to do.

The default hooks are defined in the generic header and are used in the
case the architecture is not defining it.

In a next step, mm hooks defined in include/asm-generic/mm_hooks.h should
be moved here.

f56141e3e2 all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_struct
If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target.  This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.

Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.

Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.

It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

d016bf7ece mm: make FIRST_USER_ADDRESS unsigned long on all archs
LKP has triggered a compiler warning after my recent patch "mm: account
pmd page tables to the process":

    mm/mmap.c: In function 'exit_mmap':
 >> mm/mmap.c:2857:2: warning: right shift count >= width of type [enabled by default]

The code:

 > 2857                WARN_ON(mm_nr_pmds(mm) >
   2858                                round_up(FIRST_USER_ADDRESS, PUD_SIZE) >> PUD_SHIFT);

In this, on tile, we have FIRST_USER_ADDRESS defined as 0.  round_up() has
the same type -- int.  PUD_SHIFT.

I think the best way to fix it is to define FIRST_USER_ADDRESS as unsigned
long.  On every arch for consistency.

62e88b1c00 mm: Make arch_unmap()/bprm_mm_init() available to all architectures
The x86 MPX patch set calls arch_unmap() and arch_bprm_mm_init()
from fs/exec.c, so we need at least a stub for them in all
architectures.  They are only called under an #ifdef for
CONFIG_MMU=y, so we can at least restict this to architectures
with MMU support.

blackfin/c6x have no MMU support, so do not call arch_unmap().
They also do not include mm_hooks.h or mmu_context.h at all and
do not need to be touched.

s390, um and unicore32 do not use asm-generic/mm_hooks.h, so got
their own arch_unmap() versions.  (I also moved um's
arch_dup_mmap() to be closer to the other mm_hooks.h functions).

xtensa only includes mm_hooks when MMU=y, which should be fine
since arch_unmap() is called only from MMU=y code.

For the rest, we use the stub copies of these functions in
asm-generic/mm_hook.h.

I cross compiled defconfigs for cris (to check NOMMU) and s390
to make sure that this works.  I also checked a 64-bit build
of UML and all my normal x86 builds including PARAVIRT on and
off.

a6c19dfe39 arm64,ia64,ppc,s390,sh,tile,um,x86,mm: remove default gate area
The core mm code will provide a default gate area based on
FIXADDR_USER_START and FIXADDR_USER_END if
!defined(__HAVE_ARCH_GATE_AREA) && defined(AT_SYSINFO_EHDR).

This default is only useful for ia64.  arm64, ppc, s390, sh, tile, 64-bit
UML, and x86_32 have their own code just to disable it.  arm, 32-bit UML,
and x86_64 have gate areas, but they have their own implementations.

This gets rid of the default and moves the code into ia64.

This should save some code on architectures without a gate area: it's now
possible to inline the gate_area functions in the default case.

1cf35d4771 mm: split 'tlb_flush_mmu()' into tlb flushing and memory freeing parts
The mmu-gather operation 'tlb_flush_mmu()' has done two things: the
actual tlb flush operation, and the batched freeing of the pages that
the TLB entries pointed at.

This splits the operation into separate phases, so that the forced
batched flushing done by zap_pte_range() can now do the actual TLB flush
while still holding the page table lock, but delay the batched freeing
of all the pages to after the lock has been dropped.

This in turn allows us to avoid a race condition between
set_page_dirty() (as called by zap_pte_range() when it finds a dirty
shared memory pte) and page_mkclean(): because we now flush all the
dirty page data from the TLB's while holding the pte lock,
page_mkclean() will be held up walking the (recently cleaned) page
tables until after the TLB entries have been flushed from all CPU's.
