Peter Zijlstra 20273941f2 mm: fix race in kunmap_atomic()
Christoph reported a nice splat which illustrated a race in the new stack
based kmap_atomic implementation.

The problem is that we pop our stack slot before we're completely done
resetting its state -- in particular clearing the PTE (sometimes that's
CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM).  If an interrupt happens before we actually clear
the PTE used for the last slot, that interrupt can reuse the slot in a
dirty state, which triggers a BUG in kmap_atomic().

Fix this by introducing kmap_atomic_idx() which reports the current slot
index without actually releasing it and use that to find the PTE and delay
the _pop() until after we're completely done.

/*
* highmem.c: virtual kernel memory mappings for high memory
*
* Provides kernel-static versions of atomic kmap functions originally
* found as inlines in include/asm-sparc/highmem.h. These became
* needed as kmap_atomic() and kunmap_atomic() started getting
* called from within modules.
* -- Tomas Szepe <szepe@pinerecords.com>, September 2002
*
* But kmap_atomic() and kunmap_atomic() cannot be inlined in
* modules because they are loaded with btfixup-ped functions.
*/
/*
* The use of kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic is discouraged - kmap/kunmap
* gives a more generic (and caching) interface. But kmap_atomic can
* be used in IRQ contexts, so in some (very limited) cases we need it.
*
* XXX This is an old text. Actually, it's good to use atomic kmaps,
* provided you remember that they are atomic and not try to sleep
* with a kmap taken, much like a spinlock. Non-atomic kmaps are
* shared by CPUs, and so precious, and establishing them requires IPI.
* Atomic kmaps are lightweight and we may have NCPUS more of them.
