We use virt_to_pte(NULL, va) a lot, which isn't very obvious.
I added virt_to_kpte(va) as a more obvious wrapper function,
that also validates the va as being a kernel adddress.
And, I fixed the semantics of virt_to_pte() so that we handle
the pud and pmd the same way, and we now document the fact that
we handle the final pte level differently.

Allow enabling frame pointer support; this makes it easier to hook
into the various kernel features that claim they require it without
having to add Kconfig conditionals everywhere (a la mips, ppc, s390,
and microblaze). When enabled, it basically eliminates leaf functions
as such, and stops optimizing tail and sibling calls. It adds around
3% to the size of the kernel when enabled.

The TILE-Gx chip includes an on-chip UART. This change adds support

The existing code relied on the hardware definition (<arch/chip.h>)
to specify how much VA and PA space was available. It's convenient
to allow customizing this for some configurations, so provide symbols
MAX_PA_WIDTH and MAX_VA_WIDTH in <asm/page.h> that can be modified
if desired.
Additionally, move away from the MEM_XX_INTRPT nomenclature to
define the start of various regions within the VA space. In fact
the cleaner symbol is, for example, MEM_SV_START, to indicate the
start of the area used for supervisor code; the actual address of the
interrupt vectors is not as important, and can be changed if desired.
As part of this change, convert from "intrpt1" nomenclature (which
built in the old privilege-level 1 model) to a simple "intrpt".
Also strip out some tilepro-specific code supporting modifying the
PL the kernel could run at, since we don't actually support using
different PLs in tilepro, only tilegx.

Previously, we used a special-purpose register (SPR_SYSTEM_SAVE_K_0)
to hold the CPU number and the top of the current kernel stack
by using the low bits to hold the CPU number, and using the high
bits to hold the address of the page just above where we'd want
the kernel stack to be. That way we could initialize a new SP
when first entering the kernel by just masking the SPR value and
subtracting a couple of words.
However, it's actually more useful to be able to place an arbitrary
kernel-top value in the SPR. This allows us to create a new stack
context (e.g. for virtualization) with an arbitrary top-of-stack VA.
To make this work, we now store the CPU number in the high bits,
above the highest legal VA bit (42 bits in the current tilegx
microarchitecture). The full 42 bits are thus available to store the
top of stack value. Getting the current cpu (a relatively common
operation) is still fast; it's now a shift rather than a mask.
We make this change only for tilegx, since tilepro has too few SPR
bits to do this, and we don't need this support on tilepro anyway.

Nothing in the codebase was using them, and as written they took

we can put them back.

This change adds infrastructure (CONFIG_TILE_HVGLUE_TRACE) that
provides C code wrappers for the calls the kernel makes to the Tilera
hypervisor. This allows standard kernel infrastructure like FTRACE to
be able to instrument hypervisor calls.
To allow direct calls to the true API, we export their names with a
leading underscore as well. This is important for the few contexts
where we need to make hypervisor calls without touching the stack.
As part of this change, we also switch from creating the symbols
with linker magic to creating them with assembler magic. This lets
us provide a symbol type and generally make them appear more as symbols
and less as just random values in the Elf namespace.

First, don't re-enable interrupts blindly in the Linux trap handler.
We already handle page faults this way; synchronous interrupts like
ILL_TRANS will fire even when interrupts are disabled, and we don't
want to re-enable interrupts in that case.
For ILL_TRANS, we now pass the ILL_VA_PC reason into the trap handler
so we can report it properly; this is the address that caused the
illegal translation trap. We print the address as part of the
pr_alert() message now if it's coming from the kernel.

First, in huge_pte_offset(), we were erroneously checking
pgd_present(), which is always true, rather than pud_present(),
which is the thing that tells us if there is a top-level (L0) PTE.
Fixing this means we properly look up huge page entries only when
the Present bit is actually set in the PTE.
Second, use the standard pte_alloc_map() instead of the hand-rolled
pte_alloc_hugetlb() routine that basically was written to avoid
worrying about CONFIG_HIGHPTE. However, we no longer plan to support
HIGHPTE, so a separate routine was just unnecessary code duplication.

Also, don't abort kernel backtracers for invalid userspace PC's.

call to a bad address above PAGE_OFFSET, even though that it can
be perfectly reasonable to continue the backtrace in such a case.

This change enables unaligned userspace memory access via a kernel
fast path on tilegx. The kernel tracks user PC/instruction pairs
per-thread using a direct-mapped cache in userspace. The cache
maps those PC/instruction pairs to JIT'ed instruction sequences that
load or store using byte-wide load store intructions and then
synthesize 2-, 4- or 8-byte load or store results. Once an
instruction has been seen to generate an unaligned access once,
subsequent hits on that instruction typically require overhead
of only around 50 cycles if cache and TLB is hot.
We support the prctl() PR_GET_UNALIGN / PR_SET_UNALIGN sys call to
enable or disable unaligned fixups on a per-process basis.
To do this we pull some of the tilepro unaligned support out of the
single_step.c file; tilepro uses instruction disassembly for both
single-step and unaligned access support. Since tilegx actually has
hardware singlestep support, though, it's cleaner to keep the tilegx
unaligned access code in a separate file. While we're at it,
properly rename the tilepro-specific types, etc., to have tilepro
suffixes instead of generic tile suffixes.

This change adds support for the "memmap" boot parameter similar
to what x86 provides. The tile version supports "memmap=1G$5G",
for example, as a way to reserve a 1 GB range starting at PA 5GB.
The memory is reserved via bootmem during startup, and we create a
suitable "struct resource" marked as "Reserved" so you can see the
range reported by /proc/iomem. Up to 64 such regions can currently
be reserved on the boot command line.
We do not support the x86 options "memmap=nn@ss" (force some memory
to be available at the given address) since it's pointless to try to
have Linux use memory the Tilera hypervisor hasn't given it. We do
not support "memmap=nn#ss" to add an ACPI range for later processing,
since we don't support ACPI. We do not support "memmap=exactmap"
since we don't support reading the e820 information from the BIOS
like x86 does. I did add support for "memmap=nn" (and the synonym
"mem=nn") which cap the highest PA value at "nn"; these are both
just a synonym for the existing tile boot option "maxmem".

This change improves and cleans up the tile console.
- We enable HVC_IRQ support on tilegx, with the addition of a new
Tilera hypervisor API for tilegx to allow a console IPI. If IPI
support is not available we fall back to the previous polling mode.
- We simplify the earlyprintk code to use CON_BOOT and eliminate some
of the other supporting earlyprintk code.
- A new tile_console_write() primitive is used to send output to
the console and is factored out of the hvc_tile driver.
This lets us support a "sim_console" boot argument to allow using
simulator hooks to send output to the "console" as a slightly
faster alternative to emulating the hardware more directly.
