Every single architecture (including !CONFIG_HIGHMEM) calls...

	pagefault_enable();
	preempt_enable();

... before returning from __kunmap_atomic().  Lift this code into the
kunmap_atomic() macro.

While we are at it rename __kunmap_atomic() to kunmap_atomic_high() to
be consistent.

Every arch has the same code to ensure atomic operations and a check for
!HIGHMEM page.

Remove the duplicate code by defining a core kmap_atomic() which only
calls the arch specific kmap_atomic_high() when the page is high memory.

<title>Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function</title>

<id>urn:sha1:96d4f267e40f9509e8a66e2b39e8b95655617693</id>
<content type='text'>
Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

CONFIG_DMA_MAYBE_COHERENT already selects CONFIG_DMA_NONCOHERENT, so we
can remove the extra conditions.

<title>mm: fix races between swapoff and flush dcache</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cb9f753a3731f7fe16447bea45cb6f8e8bb432fb</id>
<content type='text'>
Thanks to commit 4b3ef9daa4fc ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB
trunks"), after swapoff the address_space associated with the swap
device will be freed.  So page_mapping() users which may touch the
address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space
from being freed during accessing.

The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in architecture
specific code may access the address_space of swap device for anonymous
pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function.  But in some cases
there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from being swapoff,
for example,

  CPU1					CPU2
  __get_user_pages()			swapoff()
    flush_dcache_page()
      mapping = page_mapping()
        ...				  exit_swap_address_space()
        ...				    kvfree(spaces)
        mapping_mapped(mapping)

The address space may be accessed after being freed.

But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care
about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should be
used.  The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all architectures
follows this too.  They will check whether page_mapping() is NULL and
whether mapping_mapped() is true to determine whether to flush the
dcache immediately.  And they will use interval tree (mapping-&gt;i_mmap)
to find all user space mappings.  While mapping_mapped() and
mapping-&gt;i_mmap isn't used by anonymous pages in swap cache at all.

So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping()
is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL
otherwise.  All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are
replaced with page_mapping_file().

<content type='text'>
arch/mips/mm/cache.c provides our implementation of the cpu_cache_init()
function, but doesn't include the asm/setup.h header which declares it.
This leads to a warning from sparse:

  arch/mips/mm/cache.c:274:6: warning: symbol 'cpu_cache_init' was not
    declared. Should it be static?

Fix this by including asm/setup.h to get the declaration of
cpu_cache_init().
