Introduce a new API vmemmap_free() to free and remove vmemmap
pagetables. Since pagetable implements are different, each architecture
has to provide its own version of vmemmap_free(), just like
vmemmap_populate().
Note: vmemmap_free() is not implemented for ia64, ppc, s390, and sparc.

When memory is removed, the corresponding pagetables should alse be
removed. This patch introduces some common APIs to support vmemmap
pagetable and x86_64 architecture direct mapping pagetable removing.
All pages of virtual mapping in removed memory cannot be freed if some
pages used as PGD/PUD include not only removed memory but also other
memory. So this patch uses the following way to check whether a page
can be freed or not.
1) When removing memory, the page structs of the removed memory are
filled with 0FD.
2) All page structs are filled with 0xFD on PT/PMD, PT/PMD can be
cleared. In this case, the page used as PT/PMD can be freed.
For direct mapping pages, update direct_pages_count[level] when we freed
their pagetables. And do not free the pages again because they were
freed when offlining.
For vmemmap pages, free the pages and their pagetables.
For larger pages, do not split them into smaller ones because there is
no way to know if the larger page has been split. As a result, there is
no way to decide when to split. We deal the larger pages in the
following way:
1) For direct mapped pages, all the pages were freed when they were
offlined. And since menmory offline is done section by section, all
the memory ranges being removed are aligned to PAGE_SIZE. So only need
to deal with unaligned pages when freeing vmemmap pages.
2) For vmemmap pages being used to store page_struct, if part of the
larger page is still in use, just fill the unused part with 0xFD. And
when the whole page is fulfilled with 0xFD, then free the larger page.

For removing memmap region of sparse-vmemmap which is allocated bootmem,
memmap region of sparse-vmemmap needs to be registered by
get_page_bootmem(). So the patch searches pages of virtual mapping and
registers the pages by get_page_bootmem().
NOTE: register_page_bootmem_memmap() is not implemented for ia64,
ppc, s390, and sparc. So introduce CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE
and revert register_page_bootmem_info_node() when platform doesn't
support it.
It's implemented by adding a new Kconfig option named
CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE, which will be automatically selected
by memory-hotplug feature fully supported archs(currently only on
x86_64).
Since we have 2 config options called MEMORY_HOTPLUG and
MEMORY_HOTREMOVE used for memory hot-add and hot-remove separately,
and codes in function register_page_bootmem_info_node() are only
used for collecting infomation for hot-remove, so reside it under
MEMORY_HOTREMOVE.
Besides page_isolation.c selected by MEMORY_ISOLATION under
MEMORY_HOTPLUG is also such case, move it too.

Pull x86 mm changes from Peter Anvin:
"This is a huge set of several partly interrelated (and concurrently
developed) changes, which is why the branch history is messier than
one would like.
The *really* big items are two humonguous patchsets mostly developed
by Yinghai Lu at my request, which completely revamps the way we
create initial page tables. In particular, rather than estimating how
much memory we will need for page tables and then build them into that
memory -- a calculation that has shown to be incredibly fragile -- we
now build them (on 64 bits) with the aid of a "pseudo-linear mode" --
a #PF handler which creates temporary page tables on demand.
This has several advantages:
1. It makes it much easier to support things that need access to data
very early (a followon patchset uses this to load microcode way
early in the kernel startup).
2. It allows the kernel and all the kernel data objects to be invoked
from above the 4 GB limit. This allows kdump to work on very large
systems.
3. It greatly reduces the difference between Xen and native (Xen's
equivalent of the #PF handler are the temporary page tables created
by the domain builder), eliminating a bunch of fragile hooks.
The patch series also gets us a bit closer to W^X.
Additional work in this pull is the 64-bit get_user() work which you
were also involved with, and a bunch of cleanups/speedups to
__phys_addr()/__pa()."

A user reported the following oops when a backup process reads
/proc/kcore:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffbb00ff33b000
IP: [<ffffffff8103157e>] kern_addr_valid+0xbe/0x110

[<ffffffff81449692>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
Investigation determined that the bug triggered when reading
system RAM at the 4G mark. On this system, that was the first
address using 1G pages for the virt->phys direct mapping so the
PUD is pointing to a physical address, not a PMD page.
The problem is that the page table walker in kern_addr_valid() is
not checking pud_large() and treats the physical address as if
it was a PMD. If it happens to look like pmd_none then it'll
silently fail, probably returning zeros instead of real data. If
the data happens to look like a present PMD though, it will be
walked resulting in the oops above.
This patch adds the necessary pud_large() check.
Unfortunately the problem was not readily reproducible and now
they are running the backup program without accessing
/proc/kcore so the patch has not been validated but I think it
makes sense.

Just like the way we calculate next for pud and pmd, aka round down and
add size.
Also, do not do boundary-checking with 'next', and just pass 'end' down
to phys_pud_init() instead. Because the loop in phys_pud_init() stops at
PTRS_PER_PUD and thus can handle a possibly bigger 'end' properly.

Get pgt_buf early from BRK, and use it to map PMD_SIZE from top at first.
Then use mapped pages to map more ranges below, and keep looping until
all pages get mapped.
alloc_low_page will use page from BRK at first, after that buffer is used
up, will use memblock to find and reserve pages for page table usage.
Introduce min_pfn_mapped to make sure find new pages from mapped ranges,
that will be updated when lower pages get mapped.
Also add step_size to make sure that don't try to map too big range with
limited mapped pages initially, and increase the step_size when we have
more mapped pages on hand.
We don't need to call pagetable_reserve anymore, reserve work is done
in alloc_low_page() directly.
At last we can get rid of calculation and find early pgt related code.
-v2: update to after fix_xen change,
also use MACRO for initial pgt_buf size and add comments with it.
-v3: skip big reserved range in memblock.reserved near end.

After we add code use buffer in BRK to pre-map buf for page table in

it should be safe to remove early_memmap for page table accessing.
Instead we get panic with that.
It turns out that we clear the initial page table wrongly for next range
that is separated by holes.
And it only happens when we are trying to map ram range one by one.
We need to check if the range is ram before clearing page table.
We change the loop structure to remove the extra little loop and use
one loop only, and in that loop will caculate next at first, and check if
[addr,next) is covered by E820_RAM.
-v2: E820_RESERVED_KERN is treated as E820_RAM. EFI one change some E820_RAM

We are going to use buffer in BRK to map small range just under memory top,
and use those new mapped ram to map ram range under it.

but ranges around it are ram too, we could use bigger page to map it to
avoid small page size.
We will adjust page_size_mask in following patch:

Currently direct mappings are created for [ 0 to max_low_pfn<<PAGE_SHIFT )
and [ 4GB to max_pfn<<PAGE_SHIFT ), which may include regions that are not
backed by actual DRAM. This is fine for holes under 4GB which are covered
by fixed and variable range MTRRs to be UC. However, we run into trouble
on higher memory addresses which cannot be covered by MTRRs.
Our system with 1TB of RAM has an e820 that looks like this:
BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x00000000000983ff] usable
BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000098400-0x000000000009ffff] reserved
BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000000d0000-0x00000000000fffff] reserved
BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000100000-0x00000000c7ebffff] usable
BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000c7ec0000-0x00000000c7ed7fff] ACPI data

BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000fec00000-0x00000000fec0ffff] reserved
BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000fee00000-0x00000000fee00fff] reserved
BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000fff00000-0x00000000ffffffff] reserved

BIOS-e820: [mem 0x000000e038000000-0x000000fcffffffff] reserved
BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000010000000000-0x0000011ffeffffff] usable
and so direct mappings are created for huge memory hole between
0x000000e038000000 to 0x0000010000000000. Even though the kernel never
generates memory accesses in that region, since the page tables mark
them incorrectly as being WB, our (AMD) processor ends up causing a MCE
while doing some memory bookkeeping/optimizations around that area.
This patch iterates through e820 and only direct maps ranges that are
marked as E820_RAM, and keeps track of those pfn ranges. Depending on
the alignment of E820 ranges, this may possibly result in using smaller
size (i.e. 4K instead of 2M or 1G) page tables.

instead. - Yinghai Lu

When I made an attempt at separating __pa_symbol and __pa I found that there
were a number of cases where __pa was used on an obvious symbol.
I also caught one non-obvious case as _brk_start and _brk_end are based on the
address of __brk_base which is a C visible symbol.
In mark_rodata_ro I was able to reduce the overhead of kernel symbol to
virtual memory translation by using a combination of __va(__pa_symbol())
instead of page_address(virt_to_page()).

There are various pieces of code in arch/x86 that require a page table
with an identity mapping. Make trampoline_pgd a proper kernel page
table, it currently only includes the kernel text and module space
mapping.
One new feature of trampoline_pgd is that it now has mappings for the
physical I/O device addresses, which are inserted at ioremap()
time. Some broken implementations of EFI firmware require these
mappings to always be around.

Commit 20167d3421 ("x86-64: Fix
accounting in kernel_physical_mapping_init()") went a little too
far by entirely removing the counting of pre-populated page
tables: this should be done at boot time (to cover the page
tables set up in early boot code), but shouldn't be done during
memory hot add.
Hence, re-add the removed increments of "pages", but make them
and the one in phys_pte_init() conditional upon !after_bootmem.

When finding a present and acceptable 2M/1G mapping, the number

already incremented when the earlier part of the mapping was
established). Instead, last_map_addr needs to be updated in this
case.
Further, address increments were wrong in one place each in both
phys_pmd_init() and phys_pud_init() (lacking the aligning down
to the respective page boundary).
As we're now doing the same calculation several times, fold it
into a single instance using a local variable (matching how
kernel_physical_mapping_init() itself does it at the PGD level).
Observed during code inspection, not because of an actual

whether they're node affine or not, which shouldn't matter at all.

ZONE_DMA is unnecessary for a large number of machines that do not
require less than 32-bit DMA addressing, e.g. ISA legacy DMA or PCI
cards with a restricted DMA address mask.
This patch allows users to disable ZONE_DMA for x86 if they know they
will not be using such devices with their kernel.
This prevents the VM from unnecessarily reserving a ratio of memory
(defaulting to 1/256th of system capacity) with lowmem_reserve_ratio
for such allocations when it will never be used.

The only special handling NUMA needs to do for hotadd memory is
determining the node for the hotadd memory given the address of it and
there's nothing specific to specific config method used.
srat_64.c does somewhat elaborate error checking on
ACPI_SRAT_MEM_HOT_PLUGGABLE regions, remembers them and implements
memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() which determines the node for given
hotadd address.
This is almost completely redundant. All the information is already
available to the generic NUMA code which already performs all the
sanity checking and merging. All that's necessary is not using
__initdata from numa_meminfo and providing a function which uses it to
map address to node.
Drop the specific implementation from srat_64.c and add generic
memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() in numa_64.c, which is enabled if
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG is set. Other than dropping the code, srat_64.c
doesn't need any change as it already calls numa_add_memblk() for hot
pluggable regions which is enough.
While at it, change CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_SPARSE in srat_64.c to
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG, for NUMA on x86-64, the two are always the
same.

Also init_memory_mapping() is called several times for numa or memory

This patch reverts NUMA affine page table allocation added by commit
1411e0ec31 (x86-64, numa: Put pgtable to local node memory).
The commit made an undocumented change where the kernel linear mapping
strictly follows intersection of e820 memory map and NUMA
configuration. If the physical memory configuration has holes or NUMA
nodes are not properly aligned, this leads to using unnecessarily
smaller mapping size which leads to increased TLB pressure. For
details,
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1104672
Patches to fix the problem have been proposed but the underlying code
needs more cleanup and the approach itself seems a bit heavy handed
and it has been determined to revert the feature for now and come back
to it in the next developement cycle.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1105959
As init_memory_mapping_high() callsites have been consolidated since
the commit, reverting is done manually. Also, the RED-PEN comment in
arch/x86/mm/init.c is not restored as the problem no longer exists
with memblock based top-down early memory allocation.

It means with the patch, page table for [0, 2g) will need 2g, instead of under 512M,
page table for [4g, 128g) will be near 128g, instead of under 2g.
That would good, if we have lots of memory above 4g, like 1024g, or 2048g or 16T, will not put
related page table under 2g. that would be have chance to fill the under 2g if 1G or 2M page is
not used.
the code change will use add map_low_page() and update unmap_low_page() for 64bit, and use them
to get access the corresponding high memory for page table setting.

Take mm->page_table_lock while syncing the vmalloc region. This prevents
a race with the Xen pagetable pin/unpin code, which expects that the
page_table_lock is already held. If this race occurs, then Xen can see
an inconsistent page type (a page can either be read/write or a pagetable
page, and pin/unpin converts it between them), which will cause either
the pin or the set_p[gm]d to fail; either will crash the kernel.
vmalloc_sync_all() should be called rarely, so this extra use of
page_table_lock should not interfere with its normal users.
The mm pointer is stashed in the pgd page's index field, as that won't
be otherwise used for pgds.

So We can get exact reseved size in specified range.
Set the size right after initmem_init(), because later bootmem API will

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA chops the large pages spanning boundaries of kernel
text/rodata/data to small 4KB pages as they are mapped with different
attributes (text as RO, RODATA as RO and NX etc).
On x86_64, preserve the large page mappings for kernel text/rodata/data
boundaries when CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is enabled. This is done by allowing the
RODATA section to be hugepage aligned and having same RWX attributes
for the 2MB page boundaries
Extra Memory pages padding the sections will be freed during the end of the boot
and the kernel identity mappings will have different RWX permissions compared to
the kernel text mappings.
Kernel identity mappings to these physical pages will be mapped with smaller
pages but large page mappings are still retained for kernel text,rodata,data
mappings.

In the first 2MB, kernel text is co-located with kernel static
page tables setup by head_64.S. CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA chops this
2MB large page mapping to small 4KB pages as we mark the kernel text as RO,
leaving the static page tables as RW.
With CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA disabled, OLTP run on NHM-EP shows 1% improvement
with 2% reduction in system time and 1% improvement in iowait idle time.
To recover this, move the kernel static page tables to .data section, so that
we don't have to break the first 2MB of kernel text to small pages with
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA.

To eventually interleave emulated nodes over physical nodes, we
need to know the physical topology of the machine without actually
registering it. This does the k8 node setup in two parts:
detection and registration. NUMA emulation can then used the
physical topology detected to setup the address ranges of emulated
nodes accordingly. If emulation isn't used, the k8 nodes are
registered as normal.
Two formals are added to the x86 NUMA setup functions: `acpi' and
`k8'. These represent whether ACPI or K8 NUMA has been detected;
both cannot be true at the same time. This specifies to the NUMA
emulation code whether an underlying physical NUMA topology exists
and which interface to use.
This patch deals solely with separating the k8 setup path into
Northbridge detection and registration steps and leaves the ACPI
changes for a subsequent patch. The `acpi' formal is added here,
however, to avoid touching all the header files again in the next
patch.
This approach also ensures emulated nodes will not span physical
nodes so the true memory latency is not misrepresented.
k8_get_nodes() may now be used to export the k8 physical topology
of the machine for NUMA emulation.

For /proc/kcore, each arch registers its memory range by kclist_add().
In usual,
- range of physical memory
- range of vmalloc area
- text, etc...
are registered but "range of physical memory" has some troubles. It
doesn't updated at memory hotplug and it tend to include unnecessary
memory holes. Now, /proc/iomem (kernel/resource.c) includes required
physical memory range information and it's properly updated at memory
hotplug. Then, it's good to avoid using its own code(duplicating
information) and to rebuild kclist for physical memory based on
/proc/iomem.

Some 64bit arch has special segment for mapping kernel text. It should be

This patch unifies KCORE_TEXT entry scattered under x86 and ia64.
I'm not familiar with other archs (mips has its own even after this patch)
but range of [_stext ..._end) is a valid area of text and it's not in
direct-map area, defining CONFIG_ARCH_PROC_KCORE_TEXT is only a necessary
thing to do.

Impact: keep kernel text read only
Because dynamic ftrace converts the calls to mcount into and out of
nops at run time, we needed to always keep the kernel text writable.
But this defeats the point of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA. This patch converts
the kernel code to writable before ftrace modifies the text, and converts
it back to read only afterward.
The kernel text is converted to read/write, stop_machine is called to
modify the code, then the kernel text is converted back to read only.
The original version used SYSTEM_STATE to determine when it was OK
or not to change the code to rw or ro. Andrew Morton pointed out that
using SYSTEM_STATE is a bad idea since there is no guarantee to what
its state will actually be.
Instead, I moved the check into the set_kernel_text_* functions
themselves, and use a local variable to determine when it is
OK to change the kernel text RW permissions.

Impact: fix crash with memory hotplug enabled
kernel_physical_mapping_init() is called during memory hotplug
so it does not belong in the init section.
If the kernel is built with CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y on
the make command line, arch/x86/mm/init_64.c is compiled with
the -fno-inline-functions-called-once gcc option defeating
inlining of kernel_physical_mapping_init() within init_memory_mapping().
When kernel_physical_mapping_init() is not inlined it is placed
in the .init.text section according to the __init in it's current
declaration. A later call to kernel_physical_mapping_init() during
a memory hotplug operation encounters an int3 trap because the
.init.text section memory has been freed.
This patch eliminates the crash caused by the int3 trap by moving the
non-inlined kernel_physical_mapping_init() from .init.text to .meminit.text.

Device drivers that use pci_request_regions() (and similar APIs) have a
reasonable expectation that they are the only ones accessing their device.
As part of the e1000e hunt, we were afraid that some userland (X or some
bootsplash stuff) was mapping the MMIO region that the driver thought it
had exclusively via /dev/mem or via various sysfs resource mappings.
This patch adds the option for device drivers to cause their reserved
regions to the "banned from /dev/mem use" list, so now both kernel memory
and device-exclusive MMIO regions are banned.
NOTE: This is only active when CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM is set.
In addition to the config option, a kernel parameter iomem=relaxed is
provided for the cases where developers want to diagnose, in the field,
drivers issues from userspace.

Show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs
Add /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memoryY symlinks for all
the memory sections located on nodeX. For example:
/sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135
indicates that memory section 135 resides on node1.
Also revises documentation to cover this change as well as updating
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-memory to include descriptions
of memory hotremove files 'phys_device', 'phys_index', and 'state'
that were previously not described there.
In addition to it always being a good policy to provide users with
the maximum possible amount of physical location information for
resources that can be hot-added and/or hot-removed, the following
are some (but likely not all) of the user benefits provided by
this change.
Immediate:
- Provides information needed to determine the specific node
on which a defective DIMM is located. This will reduce system
downtime when the node or defective DIMM is swapped out.
- Prevents unintended onlining of a memory section that was
previously offlined due to a defective DIMM. This could happen
during node hot-add when the user or node hot-add assist script
onlines _all_ offlined sections due to user or script inability
to identify the specific memory sections located on the hot-added
node. The consequences of reintroducing the defective memory
could be ugly.
- Provides information needed to vary the amount and distribution
of memory on specific nodes for testing or debugging purposes.
Future:
- Will provide information needed to identify the memory
sections that need to be offlined prior to physical removal
of a specific node.
Symlink creation during boot was tested on 2-node x86_64, 2-node
ppc64, and 2-node ia64 systems. Symlink creation during physical
memory hot-add tested on a 2-node x86_64 system.

nothing time critical about them and this way the amount of
interrupt-context work is reduced.

When nr_range gets decremented, the same slot must be considered for
coalescing with its new successor again.
The issue is apparently pretty benign to native code, but surfaces as a
boot time crash in our forward ported Xen tree (where the page table
setup overall works differently than in native).

The check prevents flags on mappings from being changed, which is not
desireable. There's no need to check for replacing a mapping, and
x86-32 does not do this check.

early_ioremap() is also used to map normal memory when constructing
the linear memory mapping. However, since we sometimes need to be able
to distinguish between actual IO mappings and normal memory mappings,
add a early_memremap() call, which maps with PAGE_KERNEL (as opposed
to PAGE_KERNEL_IO for early_ioremap()), and use it when constructing
pagetables.

Use one of the software-defined PTE bits to indicate that a mapping is
intended for an IO address. On native hardware this is irrelevent,
since a physical address is a physical address. But in a virtual
environment, physical addresses are also virtualized, so there needs
to be some way to distinguish between pseudo-physical addresses and
actual hardware addresses; _PAGE_IOMAP indicates this intent.
By default, __supported_pte_mask masks out _PAGE_IOMAP, so it doesn't
even appear in the final pagetable.

Move the prototypes from the generic kernel.h header to the more
appropriate include/asm-x86/bios_ebda.h header file.
Also, remove the check from the power management code - this is a
pure x86 matter for now.

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.
