__is_defined(__PAGETABLE_P?D_FOLDED) doesn't quite work as intended
as these symbols are internal to asm-generic and aren't defined in the
way kconfig expects. This makes them always evaluate to false.
Switch to #ifdef.

Once swapper_pg_dir is in the rodata section, it will not be possible to
modify it directly, but we will need to modify it in some cases.
To enable this, we can use the fixmap when deliberately modifying
swapper_pg_dir. As the pgd is only transiently mapped, this provides
some resilience against illicit modification of the pgd, e.g. for
Kernel Space Mirror Attack (KSMA).

Since the address of swapper_pg_dir is fixed for a given kernel image,
it is an attractive target for manipulation via an arbitrary write. To
mitigate this we'd like to make it read-only by moving it into the
rodata section.
We require that swapper_pg_dir is at a fixed offset from tramp_pg_dir
and reserved_ttbr0, so these will also need to move into rodata.
However, swapper_pg_dir is allocated along with some transient page
tables used for boot which we do not want to move into rodata.
As a step towards this, this patch separates the boot-time page tables
into a new init_pg_dir, and reduces swapper_pg_dir to the single page it
needs to be. This allows us to retain the relationship between
swapper_pg_dir, tramp_pg_dir, and swapper_pg_dir, while cleanly
separating these from the boot-time page tables.
The init_pg_dir holds all of the pgd/pud/pmd/pte levels needed during
boot, and all of these levels will be freed when we switch to the
swapper_pg_dir, which is initialized by the existing code in
paging_init(). Since we start off on the init_pg_dir, we no longer need
to allocate a transient page table in paging_init() in order to ensure
that swapper_pg_dir isn't live while we initialize it.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Commit 7f0b1bf04511 ("arm64: Fix barriers used for page table modifications")
fixed a reported issue with fixmap page-table entries not being visible
to the walker due to a missing DSB instruction. At the same time, it added
ISB instructions to the arm64 set_{pte,pmd,pud} functions, which are not
required by the architecture and make little sense in isolation.
Remove the redundant ISBs.

Currently the PTE special supports is turned on in per architecture
header files. Most of the time, it is defined in
arch/*/include/asm/pgtable.h depending or not on some other per
architecture static definition.
This patch introduce a new configuration variable to manage this
directly in the Kconfig files. It would later replace
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL.
Here notes for some architecture where the definition of
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is not obvious:
arm
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL which is currently defined in
arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable-3level.h which is included by
arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable.h when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is set.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if ARM_LPAE.
powerpc
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined in 2 files:
- arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h
- arch/powerpc/include/asm/pte-common.h
The first one is included if (PPC_BOOK3S & PPC64) while the second is
included in all the other cases.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL all the time.
sparc:
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined if defined(__sparc__) &&
defined(__arch64__) which are defined through the compiler in
sparc/Makefile if !SPARC32 which I assume to be if SPARC64.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if SPARC64
There is no functional change introduced by this patch.

In many cases, page tables can be accessed concurrently by either another
CPU (due to things like fast gup) or by the hardware page table walker
itself, which may set access/dirty bits. In such cases, it is important
to use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE when accessing page table entries so that
entries cannot be torn, merged or subject to apparent loss of coherence
due to compiler transformations.
Whilst there are some scenarios where this cannot happen (e.g. pinned
kernel mappings for the linear region), the overhead of using READ_ONCE
/WRITE_ONCE everywhere is minimal and makes the code an awful lot easier
to reason about. This patch consistently uses these macros in the arch
code, as well as explicitly namespacing pointers to page table entries
from the entries themselves by using adopting a 'p' suffix for the former
(as is sometimes used elsewhere in the kernel source).

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
"The main theme of this pull request is security covering variants 2
and 3 for arm64. I expect to send additional patches next week
covering an improved firmware interface (requires firmware changes)
for variant 2 and way for KPTI to be disabled on unaffected CPUs
(Cavium's ThunderX doesn't work properly with KPTI enabled because of
a hardware erratum).
Summary:
- Security mitigations:
- variant 2: invalidate the branch predictor with a call to
secure firmware
- variant 3: implement KPTI for arm64
- 52-bit physical address support for arm64 (ARMv8.2)
- arm64 support for RAS (firmware first only) and SDEI (software
delegated exception interface; allows firmware to inject a RAS
error into the OS)
- perf support for the ARM DynamIQ Shared Unit PMU
- CPUID and HWCAP bits updated for new floating point multiplication
instructions in ARMv8.4
- remove some virtual memory layout printks during boot
- fix initial page table creation to cope with larger than 32M kernel
images when 16K pages are enabled"

Currently the early assembler page table code assumes that precisely
1xpgd, 1xpud, 1xpmd are sufficient to represent the early kernel text
mappings.
Unfortunately this is rarely the case when running with a 16KB granule,
and we also run into limits with 4KB granule when building much larger
kernels.
This patch re-writes the early page table logic to compute indices of
mappings for each level of page table, and if multiple indices are
required, the next-level page table is scaled up accordingly.
Also the required size of the swapper_pg_dir is computed at link time
to cover the mapping [KIMAGE_ADDR + VOFFSET, _end]. When KASLR is
enabled, an extra page is set aside for each level that may require extra
entries at runtime.

Instead of open coding the generation of page table entries, use the
macros/functions that exist for this - pfn_p*d and p*d_populate. Most
code in the kernel already uses these macros, this patch tries to fix
up the few places that don't. This is useful for the next patch in this
series, which needs to change the page table entry logic, and it's
better to have that logic in one place.
The KVM extended ID map is special, since we're creating a level above
CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS and the required function isn't available. Leave
it as is and add a comment to explain it. (The normal kernel ID map code
doesn't need this change because its page tables are created in assembly
(__create_page_tables)).

The top 4 bits of a 52-bit physical address are positioned at bits 2..5
in the TTBR registers. Introduce a couple of macros to move the bits
there, and change all TTBR writers to use them.
Leave TTBR0 PAN code unchanged, to avoid complicating it. A system with
52-bit PA will have PAN anyway (because it's ARMv8.1 or later), and a
system without 52-bit PA can only use up to 48-bit PAs. A later patch in
this series will add a kconfig dependency to ensure PAN is configured.
In addition, when using 52-bit PA there is a special alignment
requirement on the top-level table. We don't currently have any VA_BITS
configuration that would violate the requirement, but one could be added
in the future, so add a compile-time BUG_ON to check for it.

Jiankang reports that our race detection in set_pte_at is firing when
copying the page tables in dup_mmap as a result of a fork(). In this
situation, the page table isn't actually live and so there is no way
that we can race with a concurrent update from the hardware page table
walker.
This patch reworks the race detection so that we require either the
mm to match the current active_mm (i.e. currently installed in our TTBR0)
or the mm_users count to be greater than 1, implying that the page table
could be live in another CPU. The mm_users check might still be racy,
but we'll avoid false positives and it's not realistic to validate that
all the necessary locks are held as part of this assertion.

On systems with hardware dirty bit management, the ltp madvise09 unit
test fails due to dirty bit information being lost and pages being
incorrectly freed.
This was bisected to:
arm64: Ignore hardware dirty bit updates in ptep_set_wrprotect()
Reverting this commit leads to a separate problem, that the unit test
retains pages that should have been dropped due to the function
madvise_free_pte_range(.) not cleaning pte's properly.
Currently pte_mkclean only clears the software dirty bit, thus the
following code sequence can appear:
pte = pte_mkclean(pte);
if (pte_dirty(pte))
// this condition can return true with HW DBM!
This patch also adjusts pte_mkclean to set PTE_RDONLY thus effectively
clearing both the SW and HW dirty information.
In order for this to function on systems without HW DBM, we need to
also adjust pte_mkdirty to remove the read only bit from writable pte's
to avoid infinite fault loops.

In response to compile breakage introduced by a series that added the
pud_write helper to x86, Stephen notes:
did you consider using the other paradigm:
In arch include files:
#define pud_write pud_write
static inline int pud_write(pud_t pud)
.....
Then in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:
#ifndef pud_write
tatic inline int pud_write(pud_t pud)
{
....
}
#endif
If you had, then the powerpc code would have worked ... ;-) and many
of the other interfaces in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h are
protected that way ...
Given that some architecture already define pmd_write() as a macro, it's
a net reduction to drop the definition of __HAVE_ARCH_PMD_WRITE.

The generic pte_access_permitted() implementation only checks for
pte_present() (together with the write permission where applicable).
However, for both kernel ptes and PROT_NONE mappings pte_present() also
returns true on arm64 even though such mappings are not user accessible.
Additionally, arm64 now supports execute-only user permission
(PROT_EXEC) which is implemented by clearing the PTE_USER bit.
With this patch the arm64 implementation of pte_access_permitted()
checks for the PTE_VALID and PTE_USER bits together with writable access
if applicable.

On kernels built with support for transparent huge pages, different CPUs
can access the PMD concurrently due to e.g. fast GUP or page_vma_mapped_walk
and they must take care to use READ_ONCE to avoid value tearing or caching
of stale values by the compiler. Unfortunately, these functions call into
our pgtable macros, which don't use READ_ONCE, and compiler caching has
been observed to cause the following crash during ext4 writeback:
PC is at check_pte+0x20/0x170
LR is at page_vma_mapped_walk+0x2e0/0x540

This is because page_vma_mapped_walk loads the PMD twice before calling
pte_offset_map: the first time without READ_ONCE (where it gets all zeroes
due to a concurrent pmdp_invalidate) and the second time with READ_ONCE
(where it sees a valid table pointer due to a concurrent pmd_populate).
However, the compiler inlines everything and caches the first value in
a register, which is subsequently used in pte_offset_phys which returns
a junk pointer that is later dereferenced when attempting to access the
relevant pte.
This patch fixes the issue by using READ_ONCE in pte_offset_phys to ensure
that a stale value is not used. Whilst this is a point fix for a known
failure (and simple to backport), a full fix moving all of our page table
accessors over to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE and consistently using READ_ONCE in
page_vma_mapped_walk is in the works for a future kernel release.

ptep_set_wrprotect() is only called on CoW mappings which are private
(!VM_SHARED) with the pte either read-only (!PTE_WRITE && PTE_RDONLY) or
writable and software-dirty (PTE_WRITE && !PTE_RDONLY && PTE_DIRTY).
There is no race with the hardware update of the dirty state: clearing
of PTE_RDONLY when PTE_WRITE (a.k.a. PTE_DBM) is set. This patch removes
the code setting the software PTE_DIRTY bit in ptep_set_wrprotect() as
superfluous. A VM_WARN_ONCE is introduced in case the above logic is
wrong or the core mm code changes its use of ptep_set_wrprotect().

Currently PTE_RDONLY is treated as a hardware only bit and not handled

The set_pte_at() function is responsible for setting this bit based on
the write permission or dirty state. This patch moves the PTE_RDONLY

With the support for hardware updates of the access and dirty states,
the following pte handling functions had to be implemented using
exclusives: __ptep_test_and_clear_young(), ptep_get_and_clear(),
ptep_set_wrprotect() and ptep_set_access_flags(). To take advantage of
the LSE atomic instructions and also make the code cleaner, convert
these pte functions to use the more generic cmpxchg()/xchg().

When memory failure is enabled, a poisoned hugepage pte is marked as a
swap entry. huge_pte_offset() does not return the poisoned page table
entries when it encounters PUD/PMD hugepages.
This behaviour of huge_pte_offset() leads to error such as below when
munmap is called on poisoned hugepages.

This is the third attempt at enabling the use of contiguous hints for
kernel mappings. The most recent attempt 0bfc445dec9d was reverted after
it turned out that updating permission attributes on live contiguous ranges
may result in TLB conflicts. So this time, the contiguous hint is not set
for .rodata or for the linear alias of .text/.rodata, both of which are
mapped read-write initially, and remapped read-only at a later stage.
(Note that the latter region could also be unmapped and remapped again
with updated permission attributes, given that the region, while live, is
only mapped for the convenience of the hibernation code, but that also
means the TLB footprint is negligible anyway, so why bother)
This enables the following contiguous range sizes for the virtual mapping
of the kernel image, and for the linear mapping:
granule size | cont PTE | cont PMD |
-------------+------------+------------+
4 KB | 64 KB | 32 MB |
16 KB | 2 MB | 1 GB* |
64 KB | 2 MB | 16 GB* |
* Only when built for 3 or more levels of translation. This is due to the
fact that a 2 level configuration only consists of PGDs and PTEs, and the
added complexity of dealing with folded PMDs is not justified considering
that 16 GB contiguous ranges are likely to be ignored by the hardware (and
16k/2 levels is a niche configuration)

Commit cab15ce604e5 ("arm64: Introduce execute-only page access
permissions") allowed a valid user PTE to have the PTE_USER bit clear.
As a consequence, the pte_valid_not_user() macro in set_pte() was
replaced with pte_valid_global() under the assumption that only user
pages have the nG bit set. EFI mappings, however, also have the nG bit
set and set_pte() wrongly ignores issuing the DSB+ISB.
This patch reinstates the pte_valid_not_user() macro and adds the
PTE_UXN bit check since all kernel mappings have this bit set. For
clarity, pte_exec() is renamed to pte_user_exec() as it only checks for
the absence of PTE_UXN. Consequently, the user executable check in
set_pte_at() drops the pte_ng() test since pte_user_exec() is
sufficient.

DEBUG_PAGEALLOC removes the valid bit of page table entries to prevent
any access to unallocated memory. Hibernate uses this as a hint that those
pages don't need to be saved/restored. This patch adds the
kernel_page_present() function it uses.
hibernate.c copies the resume kernel's linear map for use during restore.
Add _copy_pte() to fill-in the holes made by DEBUG_PAGEALLOC in the resume
kernel, so we can restore data the original kernel had at these addresses.
Finally, DEBUG_PAGEALLOC means the linear-map alias of KERNEL_START to
KERNEL_END may have holes in it, so we can't lazily clean this whole
area to the PoC. Only clean the new mmuoff region, and the kernel/kvm
idmaps.

The ARMv8 architecture allows execute-only user permissions by clearing
the PTE_UXN and PTE_USER bits. However, the kernel running on a CPU
implementation without User Access Override (ARMv8.2 onwards) can still
access such page, so execute-only page permission does not protect
against read(2)/write(2) etc. accesses. Systems requiring such
protection must enable features like SECCOMP.
This patch changes the arm64 __P100 and __S100 protection_map[] macros
to the new __PAGE_EXECONLY attributes. A side effect is that
pte_user() no longer triggers for __PAGE_EXECONLY since PTE_USER isn't
set. To work around this, the check is done on the PTE_NG bit via the
pte_ng() macro. VM_READ is also checked now for page faults.

set_pte_at(.) will set or unset the PTE_RDONLY hardware bit before
writing the entry to the table.
This can cause problems with the copy-on-write logic in hugetlb_cow:
*) hugetlb_cow(.) called to handle a write fault on read only pte,
*) Before the copy-on-write updates the new page table a call is
made to pte_same(huge_ptep_get(ptep), pte)), to check for a race,
*) Because set_pte_at(.) changed the pte, *ptep != pte, and the
hugetlb_cow(.) code erroneously assumes that it lost the race,
*) The new page is subsequently freed without being used.
On arm64 this problem only becomes apparent when we apply:
67961f9 mm/hugetlb: fix huge page reserve accounting for private
mappings
When one runs the libhugetlbfs test suite, there are allocation errors
and hugetlbfs pages become erroneously locked in memory as reserved.
(There is a high HugePages_Rsvd: count).
In this patch we introduce pte_same which ignores the PTE_RDONLY bit,
allowing for the libhugetlbfs test suite to pass as expected and
without leaking any reserved HugeTLB pages.

I've just discovered that the useful-sounding has_transparent_hugepage()
is actually an architecture-dependent minefield: on some arches it only
builds if CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y, on others it's also there when
not, but on some of those (arm and arm64) it then gives the wrong
answer; and on mips alone it's marked __init, which would crash if
called later (but so far it has not been called later).
Straighten this out: make it available to all configs, with a sensible
default in asm-generic/pgtable.h, removing its definitions from those
arches (arc, arm, arm64, sparc, tile) which are served by the default,
adding #define has_transparent_hugepage has_transparent_hugepage to
those (mips, powerpc, s390, x86) which need to override the default at
runtime, and removing the __init from mips (but maybe that kind of code
should be avoided after init: set a static variable the first time it's
called).

The ARMv8.1 architecture extensions introduce support for hardware
updates of the access and dirty information in page table entries. With
VTCR_EL2.HA enabled (bit 21), when the CPU accesses an IPA with the
PTE_AF bit cleared in the stage 2 page table, instead of raising an
Access Flag fault to EL2 the CPU sets the actual page table entry bit
(10). To ensure that kernel modifications to the page table do not
inadvertently revert a bit set by hardware updates, certain Stage 2
software pte/pmd operations must be performed atomically.
The main user of the AF bit is the kvm_age_hva() mechanism. The
kvm_age_hva_handler() function performs a "test and clear young" action
on the pte/pmd. This needs to be atomic in respect of automatic hardware
updates of the AF bit. Since the AF bit is in the same position for both
Stage 1 and Stage 2, the patch reuses the existing
ptep_test_and_clear_young() functionality if
__HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_TEST_AND_CLEAR_YOUNG is defined. Otherwise, the
existing pte_young/pte_mkold mechanism is preserved.
The kvm_set_s2pte_readonly() (and the corresponding pmd equivalent) have
to perform atomic modifications in order to avoid a race with updates of
the AF bit. The arm64 implementation has been re-written using
exclusives.
Currently, kvm_set_s2pte_writable() (and pmd equivalent) take a pointer
argument and modify the pte/pmd in place. However, these functions are
only used on local variables rather than actual page table entries, so
it makes more sense to follow the pte_mkwrite() approach for stage 1
attributes. The change to kvm_s2pte_mkwrite() makes it clear that these
functions do not modify the actual page table entries.
The (pte|pmd)_mkyoung() uses on Stage 2 entries (setting the AF bit
explicitly) do not need to be modified since hardware updates of the
dirty status are not supported by KVM, so there is no possibility of
losing such information.

Currently, pmd_present() only checks for a non-zero value, returning
true even after pmd_mknotpresent() (which only clears the type bits).
This patch converts pmd_present() to using pte_present(), similar to the
other pmd_*() checks. As a side effect, it will return true for
PROT_NONE mappings, though they are not yet used by the kernel with
transparent huge pages.
For consistency, also change pmd_mknotpresent() to only clear the
PMD_SECT_VALID bit, even though the PMD_TABLE_BIT is already 0 for block
mappings (no functional change). The unused PMD_SECT_PROT_NONE
definition is removed as transparent huge pages use the pte page prot
values.

When hardware updates of the access and dirty states are enabled, the
default ptep_set_access_flags() implementation based on calling
set_pte_at() directly is potentially racy. This triggers the "racy dirty
state clearing" warning in set_pte_at() because an existing writable PTE
is overridden with a clean entry.
There are two main scenarios for this situation:
1. The CPU getting an access fault does not support hardware updates of
the access/dirty flags. However, a different agent in the system
(e.g. SMMU) can do this, therefore overriding a writable entry with a
clean one could potentially lose the automatically updated dirty
status
2. A more complex situation is possible when all CPUs support hardware
AF/DBM:
a) Initial state: shareable + writable vma and pte_none(pte)
b) Read fault taken by two threads of the same process on different
CPUs
c) CPU0 takes the mmap_sem and proceeds to handling the fault. It
eventually reaches do_set_pte() which sets a writable + clean pte.
CPU0 releases the mmap_sem
d) CPU1 acquires the mmap_sem and proceeds to handle_pte_fault(). The
pte entry it reads is present, writable and clean and it continues
to pte_mkyoung()
e) CPU1 calls ptep_set_access_flags()
If between (d) and (e) the hardware (another CPU) updates the dirty
state (clears PTE_RDONLY), CPU1 will override the PTR_RDONLY bit
marking the entry clean again.
This patch implements an arm64-specific ptep_set_access_flags() function
to perform an atomic update of the PTE flags.

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
"Here are the main arm64 updates for 4.6. There are some relatively
intrusive changes to support KASLR, the reworking of the kernel
virtual memory layout and initial page table creation.
Summary:
- Initial page table creation reworked to avoid breaking large block
mappings (huge pages) into smaller ones. The ARM architecture
requires break-before-make in such cases to avoid TLB conflicts but
that's not always possible on live page tables
- Kernel virtual memory layout: the kernel image is no longer linked
to the bottom of the linear mapping (PAGE_OFFSET) but at the bottom
of the vmalloc space, allowing the kernel to be loaded (nearly)
anywhere in physical RAM
- Kernel ASLR: position independent kernel Image and modules being
randomly mapped in the vmalloc space with the randomness is
provided by UEFI (efi_get_random_bytes() patches merged via the
arm64 tree, acked by Matt Fleming)
- Implement relative exception tables for arm64, required by KASLR
(initial code for ARCH_HAS_RELATIVE_EXTABLE added to lib/extable.c
but actual x86 conversion to deferred to 4.7 because of the merge
dependencies)
- Support for the User Access Override feature of ARMv8.2: this
allows uaccess functions (get_user etc.) to be implemented using
LDTR/STTR instructions. Such instructions, when run by the kernel,
perform unprivileged accesses adding an extra level of protection.
The set_fs() macro is used to "upgrade" such instruction to
privileged accesses via the UAO bit
- Half-precision floating point support (part of ARMv8.2)
- Optimisations for CPUs with or without a hardware prefetcher (using
run-time code patching)
- copy_page performance improvement to deal with 128 bytes at a time
- Sanity checks on the CPU capabilities (via CPUID) to prevent
incompatible secondary CPUs from being brought up (e.g. weird
big.LITTLE configurations)
- valid_user_regs() reworked for better sanity check of the
sigcontext information (restored pstate information)
- ACPI parking protocol implementation
- CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA enabled by default

- DEBUG_PAGEALLOC support

The set_pte_at() function must update the hardware PTE_RDONLY bit
depending on the state of the PTE_WRITE and PTE_DIRTY bits of the given
entry value. However, it currently only performs this for pte_valid()
entries, ignoring PTE_PROT_NONE. The side-effect is that PROT_NONE
mappings would not have the PTE_RDONLY bit set. Without
CONFIG_ARM64_HW_AFDBM, this is not an issue since such PROT_NONE pages
are not accessible anyway.
With commit 2f4b829c625e ("arm64: Add support for hardware updates of
the access and dirty pte bits"), the ptep_set_wrprotect() function was
re-written to cope with automatic hardware updates of the dirty state.
As an optimisation, only PTE_RDONLY is checked to assess the "dirty"
status. Since set_pte_at() does not set this bit for PROT_NONE mappings,
such pages may be considered "dirty" as a result of
ptep_set_wrprotect().
This patch updates the pte_valid() check to pte_present() in
set_pte_at(). It also adds PTE_PROT_NONE to the swap entry bits comment.

Commit dfd55ad85e4a ("arm64: vmemmap: use virtual projection of linear
region") fixed an issue where the struct page array would overflow into the
adjacent virtual memory region if system RAM was placed so high up in
physical memory that its addresses were not representable in the build time
configured virtual address size.
However, the fix failed to take into account that the vmemmap region needs
to be relatively aligned with respect to the sparsemem section size, so that
a sequence of page structs corresponding with a sparsemem section in the
linear region appears naturally aligned in the vmemmap region.
So round up vmemmap to sparsemem section size. Since this essentially moves
the projection of the linear region up in memory, also revert the reduction
of the size of the vmemmap region.

Commit dd006da21646 ("arm64: mm: increase VA range of identity map") made
some changes to the memory mapping code to allow physical memory to reside
at an offset that exceeds the size of the virtual mapping.
However, since the size of the vmemmap area is proportional to the size of
the VA area, but it is populated relative to the physical space, we may
end up with the struct page array being mapped outside of the vmemmap
region. For instance, on my Seattle A0 box, I can see the following output
in the dmesg log.
vmemmap : 0xffffffbdc0000000 - 0xffffffbfc0000000 ( 8 GB maximum)
0xffffffbfc0000000 - 0xffffffbfd0000000 ( 256 MB actual)
We can fix this by deciding that the vmemmap region is not a projection of
the physical space, but of the virtual space above PAGE_OFFSET, i.e., the
linear region. This way, we are guaranteed that the vmemmap region is of
sufficient size, and we can even reduce the size by half.
