Currently __set_fixmap() bails out with a warning when called in early boot
from early_iounmap(). Fix it, and while at it, make the comment a bit easier
to understand.

<id>urn:sha1:c6975d7cab5b903aadbc0f78f9af4fae1bd23a50</id>
<content type='text'>
After switched page size from 64KB to 4KB on several arm64 servers here,
kmemleak starts to run out of early memory pool due to a huge number of
those early_pgtable_alloc() calls:

  kmemleak_alloc_phys()
  memblock_alloc_range_nid()
  memblock_phys_alloc_range()
  early_pgtable_alloc()
  init_pmd()
  alloc_init_pud()
  __create_pgd_mapping()
  __map_memblock()
  paging_init()
  setup_arch()
  start_kernel()

Increased the default value of DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_MEM_POOL_SIZE by 4 times
won't be enough for a server with 200GB+ memory. There isn't much
interesting to check memory leaks for those early page tables and those
early memory mappings should not reference to other memory. Hence, no
kmemleak false positives, and we can safely skip tracking those early
allocations from kmemleak like we did in the commit fed84c785270
("mm/memblock.c: skip kmemleak for kasan_init()") without needing to
introduce complications to automatically scale the value depends on the
runtime memory size etc. After the patch, the default value of
DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_MEM_POOL_SIZE becomes sufficient again.

Since memblock_free() operates on a physical range, make its name
reflect it and rename it to memblock_phys_free(), so it will be a
logical counterpart to memblock_phys_alloc().

The callers are updated with the below semantic patch:

    - memblock_free(addr, size);
    + memblock_phys_free(addr, size);

<id>urn:sha1:fa191b711c32ba107cf8d3474cd860407b7e997a</id>
<content type='text'>
The code that implements the rarely used PID_IN_CONTEXTIDR feature
dereferences the 'task' field of struct thread_info directly, and this
is no longer possible when THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK=y, as the 'task' field is
omitted from the struct definition in that case. Instead, we should just
cast the thread_info pointer to a task_struct pointer, given that the
former is now the first member of the latter.

So use a helper that abstracts this, and provide implementations for
both cases.

<title>ARM: 9137/1: disallow CONFIG_THUMB with ARMv4</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8b5bd5adf9e6d073e538e2e9de810f2f25379c3b</id>
<content type='text'>
We can currently build a multi-cpu enabled kernel that allows both ARMv4
and ARMv5 CPUs, and also supports THUMB mode in user space.

However, returning to user space in this configuration with the usr_ret
macro requires the use of the 'bx' instruction, which is refused by
the assembler:

arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S: Assembler messages:
arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S:937: Error: selected processor does not support `bx lr' in ARM mode
arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S:960: Error: selected processor does not support `bx lr' in ARM mode
arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S:1003: Error: selected processor does not support `bx lr' in ARM mode
&lt;instantiation&gt;:2:2: note: instruction requires: armv4t
 bx lr

While it would be possible to handle this correctly in principle, doing so
seems to not be worth it, if we can simply avoid the problem by enforcing
that a kernel supporting both ARMv4 and a later CPU architecture cannot
run THUMB binaries.

This turned up while build-testing with clang; for some reason,
gcc never triggered the problem.
