Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and
effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no
distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel.
The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before
anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel
shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e5826 ("s390: add 31 bit warning
message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit
code. We didn't get any response.
Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's
remove the code.
Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.

Now, we have prepared to avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime. So
introduce new kernel-parameter to disable debug-pagealloc in boottime, and
makes related functions to be disabled in this case.
Only non-intuitive part is change of guard page functions. Because guard
page is effective only if debug-pagealloc is enabled, turning off
according to debug-pagealloc is reasonable thing to do.

Invalidate several pte entries at once if the ipte range facility
is available. Currently this works only for DEBUG_PAGE_ALLOC where
several up to 2 ^ MAX_ORDER may be invalidated at once.

With dirty and referenced bits implemented in software it is unnecessary
to initialize the storage key for every page. With this patch not a single
storage key operation is done for a system that does not use KVM.
For KVM set_pte_at/pgste_set_key will do the initialization for the guest
view of the storage key when the mapping for the page is established in
the host.

Improve the encoding of the different pte types and the naming of the
page, segment table and region table bits. Due to the different pte
encoding the hugetlbfs primitives need to be adapted as well. To improve
compatability with common code make the huge ptes use the encoding of
normal ptes. The conversion between the pte and pmd encoding for a huge
pte is done with set_huge_pte_at and huge_ptep_get.
Overall the code is now easier to understand.

Use sske with multiple block control to initialize storage keys within
a 1 MB frame at once.
It turned out that the sske with mb=1 is an order of magnitude faster
than pfmf. This is only an issue for very large systems (several 100GB)
where storage key initialization could last more than a minute.

The s390 architecture is unique in respect to dirty page detection,
it uses the change bit in the per-page storage key to track page
modifications. All other architectures track dirty bits by means
of page table entries. This property of s390 has caused numerous
problems in the past, e.g. see git commit ef5d437f71afdf4a
"mm: fix XFS oops due to dirty pages without buffers on s390".
To avoid future issues in regard to per-page dirty bits convert
s390 to a fault based software dirty bit detection mechanism. All
user page table entries which are marked as clean will be hardware
read-only, even if the pte is supposed to be writable. A write by
the user process will trigger a protection fault which will cause
the user pte to be marked as dirty and the hardware read-only bit
is removed.
With this change the dirty bit in the storage key is irrelevant
for Linux as a host, but the storage key is still required for
KVM guests. The effect is that page_test_and_clear_dirty and the
related code can be removed. The referenced bit in the storage
key is still used by the page_test_and_clear_young primitive to
provide page age information.
For page cache pages of mappings with mapping_cap_account_dirty
there will not be any change in behavior as the dirty bit tracking
already uses read-only ptes to control the amount of dirty pages.
Only for swap cache pages and pages of mappings without
mapping_cap_account_dirty there can be additional protection faults.
To avoid an excessive number of additional faults the mk_pte
primitive checks for PageDirty if the pgprot value allows for writes
and pre-dirties the pte. That avoids all additional faults for
tmpfs and shmem pages until these pages are added to the swap cache.

The current page table walk code in pageattr.c only checks for large pages
while walking the kernel page table, but happily assumes that everything
else is just fine.
Add more checks so we never access invalid memory regions.

pmd_huge() will always return 0 on !HUGETLBFS, however we use that helper
function when walking the kernel page tables to decide if we have a
1MB page frame or not.
Since we create 1MB frames for the kernel 1:1 mapping independently of
HUGETLBFS this can lead to incorrect storage accesses since the code
can assume that we have a pointer to a page table instead of a pointer
to a 1MB frame.
Fix this by adding a pmd_large() primitive like other architectures have
it already and remove all references to HUGETLBFS/HUGETLBPAGE from the
code that walks kernel page tables.

Rework the architecture page table functions to access the bits in the
page table extension array (pgste). There are a number of changes:
1) Fix missing pgste update if the attach_count for the mm is <= 1.
2) For every operation that affects the invalid bit in the pte or the
rcp byte in the pgste the pcl lock needs to be acquired. The function
pgste_get_lock gets the pcl lock and returns the current pgste value
for a pte pointer. The function pgste_set_unlock stores the pgste
and releases the lock. Between these two calls the bits in the pgste
can be shuffled.
3) Define two software bits in the pte _PAGE_SWR and _PAGE_SWC to avoid
calling SetPageDirty and SetPageReferenced from pgtable.h. If the
host reference backup bit or the host change backup bit has been
set the dirty/referenced state is transfered to the pte. The common
code will pick up the state from the pte.
4) Add ptep_modify_prot_start and ptep_modify_prot_commit for mprotect.
5) Remove pgd_populate_kernel, pud_populate_kernel, pmd_populate_kernel
pgd_clear_kernel, pud_clear_kernel, pmd_clear_kernel and ptep_invalidate.
6) Rename kvm_s390_test_and_clear_page_dirty to
ptep_test_and_clear_user_dirty and add ptep_test_and_clear_user_young.
7) Define mm_exclusive() and mm_has_pgste() helper to improve readability.

While debugging I stumbled over two problems in the code that protects module
pages.
First issue is that disabling the protection before freeing init or unload of
a module is not symmetric with the enablement. For instance, if pages are set
to RO the page range from module_core to module_core + core_ro_size is
protected. If a module is unloaded the page range from module_core to
module_core + core_size is set back to RW.
So pages that were not set to RO are also changed to RW.
This is not critical but IMHO it should be symmetric.
Second issue is that while set_memory_rw & set_memory_ro are used for
RO/RW changes only set_memory_nx is involved for NX/X. One would await that
the inverse function is called when the NX protection should be removed,
which is not the case here, unless I'm missing something.

Implement write protection for kernel modules text and read-only
data sections by implementing set_memory_[ro|rw] on s390.
Since s390 has no execute bit in the pte's NX is not supported.
set_memory_[ro|rw] will only work on normal pages and not on
large pages, so in case a large page should be modified bail
out with a warning.
