This patch defines a dirty bit in the PGSTE that can be used to implement
dirty pages logging for KVM's live migration. The bit is set in the

from the storage key in the PGSTE. The bit can be tested and reset by KVM using
the kvm_s390_test_and_clear_page_dirty function that is introduced by this patch.

Instead of making init a two pass sequence, to satisfy the Intel's TLB
Application note (developer.intel.com/design/processor/applnots/317080.pdf
Section 6 page 26), we preserve the original page permissions
when fragmenting the large mappings and don't touch the existing memory
mapping (which satisfies Xen's requirements).
Only open issue is: on a native linux kernel, we will go back to mapping
the first 0-1GB kernel identity mapping as executable (because of the
static mapping setup in head_64.S). We can fix this in a different
patch if needed.

memtype list. This avoids the explosion in the number of entries in
memtype list (of the order of 20,000 with AGP) and makes the PAT
tracking simpler.

Do a global flush tlb after splitting the large page and before we do the
actual change page attribute in the PTE.
With out this, we violate the TLB application note, which says
"The TLBs may contain both ordinary and large-page translations for
a 4-KByte range of linear addresses. This may occur if software
modifies the paging structures so that the page size used for the
address range changes. If the two translations differ with respect
to page frame or attributes (e.g., permissions), processor behavior
is undefined and may be implementation-specific."
And also serialize cpa() (for !DEBUG_PAGEALLOC which uses large identity
mappings) using cpa_lock. So that we don't allow any other cpu, with stale
large tlb entries change the page attribute in parallel to some other cpu
splitting a large page entry along with changing the attribute.

No alias checking needed for setting present/not-present mapping. Otherwise,

Don't use large pages for kernel identity mapping with DEBUG_PAGEALLOC.
This will remove the need to split the large page for the

interrupt context). cpa code simplication in the subsequent patches.

In the first pass, kernel physical mapping will be setup using large or
small pages but uses the same PTE attributes as that of the early
PTE attributes setup by early boot code in head_[32|64].S
After flushing TLB's, we go through the second pass, which setups the
direct mapped PTE's with the appropriate attributes (like NX, GLOBAL etc)
which are runtime detectable.
This two pass mechanism conforms to the TLB app note which says:
"Software should not write to a paging-structure entry in a way that would
change, for any linear address, both the page size and either the page frame
or attributes."

|3823593 101616 111700 4036909 3d992d vmlinux.nodmazone

to optimize away many conditionals in page allocation paths.

There is a bug in the BIOSes of some HP boxes with AMD Turions which
connects IO-APIC pins with ACPI thermal trip points in such a way that
if the state of the IO-APIC is not as expected by the (buggy) BIOS, the
thermal trip points are set to insanely low values (usually all of them
become 16 degrees Celsius). As a result, thermal throttling kicks in
and knock the system down to its shoes.
Unfortunately some of the recent IO-APIC changes made the bug show up.
To prevent this from happening, blacklist machines that are known to be
affected (nx6115 and 6715b in this particular case).
This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11516 listed as
