powerpc/mm: Fix pte_pagesize_index() crash on 4K w/64K hash
The powerpc kernel can be built to have either a 4K PAGE_SIZE or a 64K PAGE_SIZE. However when built with a 4K PAGE_SIZE there is an additional config option which can be enabled, PPC_HAS_HASH_64K, which means the kernel also knows how to hash a 64K page even though the base PAGE_SIZE is 4K. This is used in one obscure configuration, to support 64K pages for SPU local store on the Cell processor when the rest of the kernel is using 4K pages. In this configuration, pte_pagesize_index() is defined to just pass through its arguments to get_slice_psize(). However pte_pagesize_index() is called for both user and kernel addresses, whereas get_slice_psize() only knows how to handle user addresses. This has been broken forever, however until recently it happened to work. That was because in get_slice_psize() the large kernel address would cause the right shift of the slice mask to return zero. However in commit 7aa0727f3302 ("powerpc/mm: Increase the slice range to 64TB"), the get_slice_psize() code was changed so that instead of a right shift we do an array lookup based on the address. When passed a kernel address this means we index way off the end of the slice array and return random junk. That is only fatal if we happen to hit something non-zero, but when we do return a non-zero value we confuse the MMU code and eventually cause a check stop. This fix is ugly, but simple. When we're called for a kernel address we return 4K, which is always correct in this configuration, otherwise we use the slice mask.
