If we consider the following code sequence:
my_pte = pte_modify(entry, myprot);
x = pte_write(my_pte);
y = pte_exec(my_pte);
If myprot comes from a PROT_NONE page, then x and y will both be
true which is undesireable behaviour.
This patch sets the no-execute and read-only bits for PAGE_NONE
such that the code above will return false for both x and y.

pte_index is a useful helper outside of arch/arm64, for things like the
ARM SMMU driver, so rename __pte_index to pte_index to be consistent
with both arch/arm/ and also the definitions of pmd_index and pgd_index.

This is mostly a port of dbf62d50067e ("ARM: mm: introduce L_PTE_VALID
for page table entries") and 26ffd0d43b18 ("ARM: mm: introduce present,
faulting entries for PAGE_NONE") from ARM, which makes use of present,
faulting page table entries for page table entries mapped as PROT_NONE.
The main difference with this implementation is that we can make use of
the two pte type bits in order to avoid allocating a software bit for
identifying PROT_NONE pages, instead reserving the 10b suffix for these
types of mappings.
This is required to prevent users from accessing such pages via syscalls
such as read/write over a pipe.

Marking non-present ptes as read-only can corrupt file ptes, breaking
things like swap and file mappings.
This patch ensures that we only manipulate user pte bits when the pte
is marked present.

Pull ARM64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
- Generic execve, kernel_thread, fork/vfork/clone.
- Preparatory patches for KVM support (initialising EL2 mode for later
installing KVM support, hypervisor stub).
- Signal handling corner case fix (alternative signal stack set up for
a SEGV handler, which is raised in response to RLIMIT_STACK being
reached).
- Sub-nanosecond timer error fix.

The AArch64 Linux port relies on the mm code to wrprotect clean ptes.
This however is not the case with newly created ptes and
PAGE_SHARED(_EXEC) is writable but !dirty.

On AArch64, the meaning of the XN bit has changed to UXN (user). The PXN
(privileged) bit must be set to prevent kernel execution. Without the
PXN bit set, the CPU may speculatively access device memory. This patch
ensures that all the mappings that the kernel must not execute from
(including user mappings) have the PXN bit set.

The virtual memory layout is described in
Documentation/arm64/memory.txt. This patch adds the MMU definitions for
the 4KB and 64KB translation table configurations. The SECTION_SIZE is
2MB with 4KB page and 512MB with 64KB page configuration.
PHYS_OFFSET is calculated at run-time and stored in a variable (no
run-time code patching at this stage).
On the current implementation, both user and kernel address spaces are
512G (39-bit) each with a maximum of 256G for the RAM linear mapping.
Linux uses 3 levels of translation tables with the 4K page configuration
and 2 levels with the 64K configuration. Extending the memory space
beyond 39-bit with the 4K pages or 42-bit with 64K pages requires an
additional level of translation tables.
The SPARSEMEM configuration is global to all AArch64 platforms and
allows for 1GB sections with SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP enabled by default.
