Implementing pte_update with pte_xchg (which uses cmpxchg) is inefficient. A single larx/stcx. works fine, no need for the less efficient cmpxchg sequence. Then remove the memory barriers from the operation. There is a requirement for TLB flushing to load mm_cpumask after the store that reduces pte permissions, which is moved into the TLB flush code.

Allow PowerPC to skip the full memory barrier in switch_mm(), and only issue the barrier when scheduling into a task belonging to a process that has registered to use expedited private. Threads targeting the same VM but which belong to different thread groups is a tricky case. It has a few consequences: It turns out that we cannot rely on get_nr_threads(p) to count the number of threads using a VM. We can use (atomic_read(&mm->mm_users) == 1 && get_nr_threads(p) == 1) instead to skip the synchronize_sched() for cases where the VM only has a single user, and that user only has a single thread. It also turns out that we cannot use for_each_thread() to set thread flags in all threads using a VM, as it only iterates on the thread group. Therefore, test the membarrier state variable directly rather than relying on thread flags. This means membarrier_register_private_expedited() needs to set the MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag, issue synchronize_sched(), and only then set MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_READY which allows private expedited membarrier commands to succeed. membarrier_arch_switch_mm() now tests for the MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag.

The PSL and nMMU need to see all TLB invalidations for the memory contexts used on the adapter. For the hash memory model, it is done by making all TLBIs global as soon as the cxl driver is in use. For radix, we need something similar, but we can refine and only convert to global the invalidations for contexts actually used by the device. The new mm_context_add_copro() API increments the 'active_cpus' count for the contexts attached to the cxl adapter. As soon as there's more than 1 active cpu, the TLBIs for the context become global. Active cpu count must be decremented when detaching to restore locality if possible and to avoid overflowing the counter. The hash memory model support is somewhat limited, as we can't decrement the active cpus count when mm_context_remove_copro() is called, because we can't flush the TLB for a mm on hash. So TLBIs remain global on hash.

This doesn't change any code, just renames things so we consistently have foo_32.c and foo_64.c where we have separate 32- and 64-bit versions. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch of Kconfig files. It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm, arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac. This is enough to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc. For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel. This makes some minor changes to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc. The boot directory is still not merged. That's going to be interesting.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
