MIPS: Fix machine check exception in kmap_coherent()
On an SMP system with cache aliases, the following sequence of events may happen: 1) copy_user_highpage() runs on CPU0, invoking kmap_coherent() to create a temporary mapping in the fixmap region 2) copy_page() starts on CPU0 3) CPU1 sends CPU0 an IPI asking CPU0 to run local_r4k_flush_cache_page() 4) CPU0 takes the interrupt, interrupting copy_page() 5) local_r4k_flush_cache_page() on CPU0 calls kmap_coherent() again 6) The second invocation of kmap_coherent() on CPU0 tries to use the same fixmap virtual address that was being used by copy_user_highpage() 7) CPU0 throws a machine check exception for the TLB address conflict Fixed by creating an extra set of fixmap entries for use in interrupt handlers. This prevents fixmap VA conflicts between copy_user_highpage() running in user context, and local_r4k_flush_cache_page() invoked from an SMP IPI.
