2f98735c9c vm audit: add VM_DONTEXPAND to mmap for drivers that need it
Drivers that register a ->fault handler, but do not range-check the
offset argument, must set VM_DONTEXPAND in the vm_flags in order to
prevent an expanding mremap from overflowing the resource.

I've audited the tree and attempted to fix these problems (usually by
adding VM_DONTEXPAND where it is not obvious).

Because hpet_rtc_interrupt()'s call to get_rtc_time() ends up
resolving to include/asm-generic/rtc.h's (hilariously inlined)
get_rtc_time(), which does spin_unlock_irq() from hard IRQ context.

The obvious patch fixes it.

34508f66b6 x86: AMD Athlon X2 hard hang fix
An Athlon 64 X2 test system showed hard hangs shortly after marking
the kernel text read-only, if we tried to preserve largepages and
changed the PSE entry from RW to RO. The pagetable code itself is
correct, it's the CPU that locked up hard (and not even the NMI
watchdog could punch through that hard hang).

So be conservative and always do splitups - like we did in the past.

626c2c9d06 x86: use the pfn from the page when change its attributes
When changing the attributes of a pte, we should use the PFN from the
existing PTE rather than going through hoops calculating what we think
it might have been; this is both fragile and totally unneeded. It also
makes it more hairy to call any of these functions on non-direct maps
for no good reason whatsover.

With this change, __change_page_attr() no longer takes a pfn as argument,
which simplifies all the callers.

Right now, enforcing that the high mapping of the kernel text doesn't

static_protection() function that enforces all other per-arch sanity

function instead, and makes it apply ONLY to the kernel text, not to all
other areas in the high mapping.

1fba38703d x86: remove special NUMAQ support in io_32.h
Now that the only user does it on its own remove the NUMAQ support macros
in io_32.h

The next step would be to convert the preprocessor mess to actually readable
standard inlines.

c7e844f041 x86: move NUMAQ io handling into arch/x86/pci/numa.c
numa.c is the only user of the {in,out}*_quad functions. And it has only a few call
sites. Change them to open code the magic NUMAQ port access.

fa0c864d99 x86: cleanup - eliminate numbers in LDT allocation code
This patch eliminates numbers in LDT allocation code
trying to make it clear to understand from where
these numbers come.

No code changed:

   1896       0       0    1896     768 ldt.o.before
   1896       0       0    1896     768 ldt.o.after
md5:
 6cbec8705008ddb4b704aade60bceda3  ldt.o.before.asm
 6cbec8705008ddb4b704aade60bceda3  ldt.o.after.asm

f5430f9325 x86: update reference for PAE tlb flushing
Remove bogus reference to "Pentium-II erratum A13" and point to the
actual canonical source of information about what requirements x86
processors have for PAE pagetable updates.

edd6bcd820 x86: pud_clear: only reload cr3 if necessary
Rather than unconditionally reloading cr3, only do so if the pud we're
updating is within the active pgd.

This eliminates TLB flushes most of the time.  The
performance-critical uses of pud_clear are during execve and exit, but
in those cases cr3 is referring to some other pagetable.  The only
other use of pud_clear is during a large (1Gbyte+) munmap, and those
are sufficiently rare that a couple of cr3 reloads won't hurt.
