Commit d065bd810b
(mm: retry page fault when blocking on disk transfer) and
commit 37b23e0525
(x86,mm: make pagefault killable)
The above commits introduced changes into the x86 pagefault handler
for making the page fault handler retryable as well as killable.
These changes reduce the mmap_sem hold time, which is crucial
during OOM killer invocation.
Port these changes to 32-bit sparc.

Building an allyesconfig doesn't reveal a hidden need
for any of these. Since module.h brings in the whole kitchen
sink, it just needlessly adds 30k+ lines to the cpp burden.

The nmi parameter indicated if we could do wakeups from the current
context, if not, we would set some state and self-IPI and let the
resulting interrupt do the wakeup.
For the various event classes:
- hardware: nmi=0; PMI is in fact an NMI or we run irq_work_run from
the PMI-tail (ARM etc.)
- tracepoint: nmi=0; since tracepoint could be from NMI context.
- software: nmi=[0,1]; some, like the schedule thing cannot
perform wakeups, and hence need 0.
As one can see, there is very little nmi=1 usage, and the down-side of
not using it is that on some platforms some software events can have a
jiffy delay in wakeup (when arch_irq_work_raise isn't implemented).
The up-side however is that we can remove the nmi parameter and save a
bunch of conditionals in fast paths.

When we try to handle vmalloc faults, we can take a code
path which uses "code" before we actually set it.
Amusingly gcc-3.3 notices this yet gcc-4.x does not.

When the rett stack checking code sees the stack is unaligned (in both
the sun4c and srmmu cases) it jumps to the window fault-in path.
But that just tries to page the stack pages in, it doesn't do anything
special if the stack is misaligned.
Therefore we essentially just loop forever in the trap return path.
Fix this by emitting a SIGILL in the stack fault-in code if the stack
is mis-aligned.

On VIVT ARM, when we have multiple shared mappings of the same file
in the same MM, we need to ensure that we have coherency across all
copies. We do this via make_coherent() by making the pages
uncacheable.
This used to work fine, until we allowed highmem with highpte - we
now have a page table which is mapped as required, and is not available
for modification via update_mmu_cache().
Ralf Beache suggested getting rid of the PTE value passed to
update_mmu_cache():
On MIPS update_mmu_cache() calls __update_tlb() which walks pagetables
to construct a pointer to the pte again. Passing a pte_t * is much
more elegant. Maybe we might even replace the pte argument with the
pte_t?
Ben Herrenschmidt would also like the pte pointer for PowerPC:
Passing the ptep in there is exactly what I want. I want that
-instead- of the PTE value, because I have issue on some ppc cases,
for I$/D$ coherency, where set_pte_at() may decide to mask out the
_PAGE_EXEC.
So, pass in the mapped page table pointer into update_mmu_cache(), and
remove the PTE value, updating all implementations and call sites to
suit.

This allows the callers to now pass down the full set of FAULT_FLAG_xyz
flags to handle_mm_fault(). All callers have been (mechanically)
converted to the new calling convention, there's almost certainly room
for architectures to clean up their code and then add FAULT_FLAG_RETRY
when that support is added.

The sparc allmodconfig build broke due to enabling of the
branch_tracer that does some very clever things with
all if conditions. This caused my gcc 3.4.5 to be so confused that
it emitted a warning:
arch/sparc/mm/fault_32.c: In function `do_sparc_fault':
arch/sparc/mm/fault_32.c:176: warning: 'fixup' might be used uninitialized in this function
And with -Werror this broke the build.
Refactor code so it:
1) becomes more readable
2) no longer emit a warning with the branch_tracer enabled
