The define has a comment from Nick Piggin from 2007:

 /* For backwards compat. Remove me quickly. */

I guess 9 years should not be too hurried sense of 'quickly' even for
kernel measures.

<title>mm: differentiate page_mapped() from page_mapcount() for compound pages</title>

<content type='text'>
Let's define page_mapped() to be true for compound pages if any
sub-pages of the compound page is mapped (with PMD or PTE).

On other hand page_mapcount() return mapcount for this particular small
page.

This will make cases like page_get_anon_vma() behave correctly once we
allow huge pages to be mapped with PTE.

Most users outside core-mm should use page_mapcount() instead of
page_mapped().

<title>mm/fault, arch: Use pagefault_disable() to check for disabled pagefaults in the handler</title>

<id>urn:sha1:70ffdb9393a7264a069265edded729078dcf0425</id>
<content type='text'>
Introduce faulthandler_disabled() and use it to check for irq context and
disabled pagefaults (via pagefault_disable()) in the pagefault handlers.

Please note that we keep the in_atomic() checks in place - to detect
whether in irq context (in which case preemption is always properly
disabled).

In contrast, preempt_disable() should never be used to disable pagefaults.
With !CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT, preempt_disable() doesn't modify the preempt
counter, and therefore the result of in_atomic() differs.
We validate that condition by using might_fault() checks when calling
might_sleep().

Therefore, add a comment to faulthandler_disabled(), describing why this
is needed.

faulthandler_disabled() and pagefault_disable() are defined in
linux/uaccess.h, so let's properly add that include to all relevant files.

This patch is based on a patch from Thomas Gleixner.

The existing code relies on pagefault_disable() implicitly disabling
preemption, so that no schedule will happen between kmap_atomic() and
kunmap_atomic().

Let's make this explicit, to prepare for pagefault_disable() not
touching preemption anymore.

<title>vm: add VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV handling support</title>

<id>urn:sha1:33692f27597fcab536d7cbbcc8f52905133e4aa7</id>
<content type='text'>
The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a
"you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally
handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler.

That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault
handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do
retries etc" - but it generally works.  However, there are cases where
the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV.

In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a
SIGSEGV.  And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by
that duplicated architecture fault handler.

However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return
from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d4514 ("mm: propagate error
from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the
existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space.  And user space really
expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS.

To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those
duplicate architecture fault handlers about it.  They all already have
the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return
value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying.

This is the mindless minimal patch to do this.  A more extensive patch
would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into
one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that
cleanup.

Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just
copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in
the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM
semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other
"newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those
improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about
them too.

noMMU configuration doesn't use special area for vmalloc allocations,
don't print it in the memory map.
PAGE_OFFSET is fixed to 0 in noMMU, use min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn for
lowmem range display.
Make all XCHAL_KSEG_* constants unsigned long for consistency with other
addresses.
