Martin Schwidefsky b2fa47e6bf [S390] refactor page table functions for better pgste support
Rework the architecture page table functions to access the bits in the
page table extension array (pgste). There are a number of changes:
1) Fix missing pgste update if the attach_count for the mm is <= 1.
2) For every operation that affects the invalid bit in the pte or the
   rcp byte in the pgste the pcl lock needs to be acquired. The function
   pgste_get_lock gets the pcl lock and returns the current pgste value
   for a pte pointer. The function pgste_set_unlock stores the pgste
   and releases the lock. Between these two calls the bits in the pgste
   can be shuffled.
3) Define two software bits in the pte _PAGE_SWR and _PAGE_SWC to avoid
   calling SetPageDirty and SetPageReferenced from pgtable.h. If the
   host reference backup bit or the host change backup bit has been
   set the dirty/referenced state is transfered to the pte. The common
   code will pick up the state from the pte.
4) Add ptep_modify_prot_start and ptep_modify_prot_commit for mprotect.
5) Remove pgd_populate_kernel, pud_populate_kernel, pmd_populate_kernel
   pgd_clear_kernel, pud_clear_kernel, pmd_clear_kernel and ptep_invalidate.
6) Rename kvm_s390_test_and_clear_page_dirty to
   ptep_test_and_clear_user_dirty and add ptep_test_and_clear_user_young.
7) Define mm_exclusive() and mm_has_pgste() helper to improve readability.

Jan Glauber 448694a1d5 module: undo module RONX protection correctly.
While debugging I stumbled over two problems in the code that protects module
pages.

First issue is that disabling the protection before freeing init or unload of
a module is not symmetric with the enablement. For instance, if pages are set
to RO the page range from module_core to module_core + core_ro_size is
protected. If a module is unloaded the page range from module_core to
module_core + core_size is set back to RW.
So pages that were not set to RO are also changed to RW.
This is not critical but IMHO it should be symmetric.

Second issue is that while set_memory_rw & set_memory_ro are used for
RO/RW changes only set_memory_nx is involved for NX/X. One would await that
the inverse function is called when the NX protection should be removed,
which is not the case here, unless I'm missing something.

Jan Glauber e4c031b4f2 [S390] fix page table walk for changing page attributes
The page table walk for changing page attributes used the wrong
address for pgd/pud/pmd lookups if the range was bigger than
a pmd entry. Fix the lookup by using the correct address.

Jan Glauber 305b152325 [S390] Write protect module text and RO data
Implement write protection for kernel modules text and read-only
data sections by implementing set_memory_[ro|rw] on s390.
Since s390 has no execute bit in the pte's NX is not supported.

set_memory_[ro|rw] will only work on normal pages and not on
large pages, so in case a large page should be modified bail
out with a warning.
