Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "Here are the core arm64 updates for 4.1.

  Highlights include a significant rework to head.S (allowing us to boot
  on machines with physical memory at a really high address), an AES
  performance boost on Cortex-A57 and the ability to run a 32-bit
  userspace with 64k pages (although this requires said userspace to be
  built with a recent binutils).

  The head.S rework spilt over into KVM, so there are some changes under
  arch/arm/ which have been acked by Marc Zyngier (KVM co-maintainer).
  In particular, the linker script changes caused us some issues in
  -next, so there are a few merge commits where we had to apply fixes on
  top of a stable branch.

  Other changes include:

   - AES performance boost for Cortex-A57
   - AArch32 (compat) userspace with 64k pages
   - Cortex-A53 erratum workaround for #845719
   - defconfig updates (new platforms, PCI, ...)"

We would want to use number of page table level to define mm_struct.
Let's expose it as CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS.

ARM64_PGTABLE_LEVELS is renamed to PGTABLE_LEVELS and defined before
sourcing init/Kconfig: arch/Kconfig will define default value and it's
sourced from init/Kconfig.

The page size and the number of translation levels, and hence the supported
virtual address range, are build-time configurables on arm64 whose optimal
values are use case dependent. However, in the current implementation, if
the system's RAM is located at a very high offset, the virtual address range
needs to reflect that merely because the identity mapping, which is only used
to enable or disable the MMU, requires the extended virtual range to map the
physical memory at an equal virtual offset.

This patch relaxes that requirement, by increasing the number of translation
levels for the identity mapping only, and only when actually needed, i.e.,
when system RAM's offset is found to be out of reach at runtime.

This patch adds arm64 helpers to write protect pmds/ptes and retrieve
permissions while logging dirty pages. Also adds prototype to write protect
a memory slot and adds a pmd define to check for read-only pmds.

The macros in these files can easily be computed based on PAGE_SHIFT and
VA_BITS, so just remove them and add the corresponding macros to
asm/pgtable-hwdef.h

Rather than having several Kconfig options, define int
ARM64_PGTABLE_LEVELS which will be also useful in converting some of the
pgtable macros.

<title>arm64: mm: Implement 4 levels of translation tables</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c79b954bf6c006f2d3dd9d01f231abeead13a410</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch implements 4 levels of translation tables since 3 levels
of page tables with 4KB pages cannot support 40-bit physical address
space described in [1] due to the following issue.

It is a restriction that kernel logical memory map with 4KB + 3 levels
(0xffffffc000000000-0xffffffffffffffff) cannot cover RAM region from
544GB to 1024GB in [1]. Specifically, ARM64 kernel fails to create
mapping for this region in map_mem function since __phys_to_virt for
this region reaches to address overflow.

If SoC design follows the document, [1], over 32GB RAM would be placed
from 544GB. Even 64GB system is supposed to use the region from 544GB
to 576GB for only 32GB RAM. Naturally, it would reach to enable 4 levels
of page tables to avoid hacking __virt_to_phys and __phys_to_virt.

However, it is recommended 4 levels of page table should be only enabled
if memory map is too sparse or there is about 512GB RAM.

<title>arm64: Introduce VA_BITS and translation level options</title>

This patch adds virtual address space size and a level of translation
tables to kernel configuration. It facilicates introduction of
different MMU options, such as 4KB + 4 levels, 16KB + 4 levels and
64KB + 3 levels, easily.

The idea is based on the discussion with Catalin Marinas:

<content type='text'>
We have the capability to map 1GB level 1 blocks when using a 4K
granule.

This patch adjusts the create_mapping logic s.t. when mapping physical
memory on boot, we attempt to use a 1GB block if both the VA and PA
start and end are 1GB aligned. This both reduces the levels of lookup
required to resolve a kernel logical address, as well as reduces TLB
pressure on cores that support 1GB TLB entries.

<id>urn:sha1:35a86976924a9eda7775b5b02ad47268dca1a5b4</id>
<content type='text'>
The current TCR register setting in arch/arm64/mm/proc.S assumes that
TCR_EL1.TG* fields are one bit wide and bit 31 is RES1 (reserved, set to
1). With the addition of 16K pages (currently unsupported in the
kernel), the TCR_EL1.TG* fields have been extended to two bits. This
patch updates the corresponding Linux definitions and drops the bit 31
setting in proc.S in favour of the new macros.
