Russell King 4b3073e1c5 MM: Pass a PTE pointer to update_mmu_cache() rather than the PTE itself
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.

Includes a fix from Stephen Rothwell:

Rusty Russell 56f8ba83a5 cpumask: use mm_cpumask() wrapper: arm
Makes code futureproof against the impending change to mm->cpu_vm_mask.

It's also a chance to use the new cpumask_ ops which take a pointer
(the older ones are deprecated, but there's no hurry for arch code).

Catalin Marinas faa7bc51c1 Check whether the TLB operations need broadcasting on SMP systems
ARMv7 SMP hardware can handle the TLB maintenance operations
broadcasting in hardware so that the software can avoid the costly IPIs.
This patch adds the necessary checks (the MMFR3 CPUID register) to avoid
the broadcasting if already supported by the hardware.

(this patch is based on the work done by Tony Thompson @ ARM)

Paul Walmsley 61db7fb1c7 [ARM] 5192/1: ARM TLB: add v7wbi_{possible,always}_flags to {possible,always}_tlb_flags
Commit 2ccdd1e77d doesn't add
v7wbi_possible_flags and v7wbi_always_flags to possible_tlb_flags and
always_tlb_flags.  This causes the L2 cache flush in clean_pmd_entry()
(intended for Feroceon only) to execute on ARMv7, and the CPU hangs.

This patch is required for OMAP3 boards to boot.
