<title>powerpc/32s: Enable STRICT_MODULE_RWX for the 603 core</title>

<content type='text'>
The book3s/32 MMU doesn't support per page execution protection and
doesn't support RO protection for kernel pages.

However, on the 603 which implements software loaded TLBs, execution
protection is honored by the TLB Miss handler which doesn't load
Instruction TLB for non executable pages. And RO protection is
honored by clearing the C bit for RO pages, leading to DSI.

So on the 603, STRICT_MODULE_RWX is possible without much effort.
Don't disable STRICT_MODULE_RWX on book3s/32 and print a warning
in case STRICT_MODULE_RWX has been selected and the platform has
a Hardware HASH MMU.

<title>powerpc: Add set_memory_{p/np}() and remove set_memory_attr()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f222ab83df92acf72691a2021e1f0d99880dcdf1</id>
<content type='text'>
set_memory_attr() was implemented by commit 4d1755b6a762 ("powerpc/mm:
implement set_memory_attr()") because the set_memory_xx() couldn't
be used at that time to modify memory "on the fly" as explained it
the commit.

But set_memory_attr() uses set_pte_at() which leads to warnings when
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is selected, because set_pte_at() is unexpected for
updating existing page table entries.

The check could be bypassed by using __set_pte_at() instead,
as it was the case before commit c988cfd38e48 ("powerpc/32:
use set_memory_attr()") but since commit 9f7853d7609d ("powerpc/mm:
Fix set_memory_*() against concurrent accesses") it is now possible
to use set_memory_xx() functions to update page table entries
"on the fly" because the update is now atomic.

For DEBUG_PAGEALLOC we need to clear and set back _PAGE_PRESENT.
Add set_memory_np() and set_memory_p() for that.

Replace all uses of set_memory_attr() by the relevant set_memory_xx()
and remove set_memory_attr().

<content type='text'>
When ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is not selected, the user can
still select CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC in which case __kernel_map_pages()
is provided by mm/page_poison.c

So only define __kernel_map_pages() when both
CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
are defined.

Use set_memory_attr() instead of the PPC32 specific change_page_attr()

change_page_attr() was checking that the address was not mapped by
blocks and was handling highmem, but that's unneeded because the
affected pages can't be in highmem and block mapping verification
is already done by the callers.

We now always map kernel text with BATs. Neither need to preload
hash with kernel text addresses nor ensure they are never evicted.

<content type='text'>
There are several occurrences of the following pattern:

	for_each_memblock(memory, reg) {
		start = __pfn_to_phys(memblock_region_memory_base_pfn(reg);
		end = __pfn_to_phys(memblock_region_memory_end_pfn(reg));

		/* do something with start and end */
	}

Using for_each_mem_range() iterator is more appropriate in such cases and
allows simpler and cleaner code.
