Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
 "This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
  Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).

  CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
  indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
  part of this feature, and just for userspace.

  The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
  return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
  secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
  protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
  the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
  to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
  the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.

  For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
  versions of this patch set"

<title>mm: Rename arch pte_mkwrite()'s to pte_mkwrite_novma()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2f0584f3f4bd60bcc8735172981fb0bff86e74e0</id>
<content type='text'>
The x86 Shadow stack feature includes a new type of memory called shadow
stack. This shadow stack memory has some unusual properties, which requires
some core mm changes to function properly.

One of these unusual properties is that shadow stack memory is writable,
but only in limited ways. These limits are applied via a specific PTE
bit combination. Nevertheless, the memory is writable, and core mm code
will need to apply the writable permissions in the typical paths that
call pte_mkwrite(). The goal is to make pte_mkwrite() take a VMA, so
that the x86 implementation of it can know whether to create regular
writable or shadow stack mappings.

But there are a couple of challenges to this. Modifying the signatures of
each arch pte_mkwrite() implementation would be error prone because some
are generated with macros and would need to be re-implemented. Also, some
pte_mkwrite() callers operate on kernel memory without a VMA.

So this can be done in a three step process. First pte_mkwrite() can be
renamed to pte_mkwrite_novma() in each arch, with a generic pte_mkwrite()
added that just calls pte_mkwrite_novma(). Next callers without a VMA can
be moved to pte_mkwrite_novma(). And lastly, pte_mkwrite() and all callers
can be changed to take/pass a VMA.

Start the process by renaming pte_mkwrite() to pte_mkwrite_novma() and
adding the pte_mkwrite() wrapper in linux/pgtable.h. Apply the same
pattern for pmd_mkwrite(). Since not all archs have a pmd_mkwrite_novma(),
create a new arch config HAS_HUGE_PAGE that can be used to tell if
pmd_mkwrite() should be defined. Otherwise in the !HAS_HUGE_PAGE cases the
compiler would not be able to find pmd_mkwrite_novma().

No functional change.

<id>urn:sha1:b5c88f21531c3457e3e202817556b68171484e00</id>
<content type='text'>
Let's support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE by stealing one bit from the
type.  Generic MM currently only uses 5 bits for the type
(MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT), so the stolen bit is effectively unused.

The shift by 2 when converting between PTE and arch-specific swap entry
makes the swap PTE layout a little bit harder to decipher.

While at it, drop the comment from paulus---copy-and-paste leftover from
powerpc where we actually have _PAGE_HASHPTE---and mask the type in
__swp_entry_to_pte() as well.

<content type='text'>
Most architectures (except arm64/x86/sparc) simply return 1 for
kern_addr_valid(), which is only used in read_kcore(), and it calls
copy_from_kernel_nofault() which could check whether the address is a
valid kernel address.  So as there is no need for kern_addr_valid(), let's
remove it.

This enables ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT on the platform and exports
standard vm_get_page_prot() implementation via DECLARE_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT,
which looks up a private and static protection_map[] array.  Subsequently
all __SXXX and __PXXX macros can be dropped which are no longer needed.

We need to use this function in common code, so define it for
architectures and/or configrations that miss it.  The result of
pmd_pfn() will only be used if TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is enabled,
but a function or macro called pmd_pfn() must be defined, even
on machines with two level page tables.

<content type='text'>
The microblaze's implementation of pte_alloc_one_kernel() used
memblock_alloc_try_nid_raw() along with clear_page() to allocated a zeroed
page during early setup.

Replace calls of these functions with a call to memblock_alloc_try_nid()
that already returns zeroed page and respects the same allocation limits
as memblock_alloc_try_nid_raw().

While on it drop early_get_page() wrapper that was only used in
pte_alloc_one_kernel().
