Move header includes for the nopud / nopmd types to the location of the actual
pte / pgd type definitions.  This allows generic 4-level page type code to be
written before the split 2/3 level page table headers are included.

Add the three bare TLB accessor functions to paravirt-ops.  Most amusingly,
flush_tlb is redefined on SMP, so I can't call the paravirt op flush_tlb.
Instead, I chose to indicate the actual flush type, kernel (global) vs. user
(non-global).  Global in this sense means using the global bit in the page
table entry, which makes TLB entries persistent across CR3 reloads, not
global as in the SMP sense of invoking remote shootdowns, so the term is
confusingly overloaded.

The ptep_establish macro is only used on user-level PTEs, for P->P mapping
changes.  Since these always happen under protection of the pagetable lock,
the strong synchronization of a 64-bit cmpxchg is not needed, in fact, not
even a lock prefix needs to be used.  We can simply instead clear the P-bit,
followed by a normal set.  The write ordering is still important to avoid the
possibility of the TLB snooping a partially written PTE and getting a bad
mapping installed.

Move the __HAVE_ARCH_PTEP defines to accompany the function definitions.
Anything else is just a complete nightmare to track through the 2/3-level
paging code, and this caused duplicate definitions to be needed (pte_same),
which could have easily been taken care of with the asm-generic pgtable
functions.

Proposed fix for ptep_get_and_clear_full PAE bug.  Pte_clear had the same bug,
so use the same fix for both.  Turns out pmd_clear had it as well, but pgds
are not affected.

The problem is rather intricate.  Page table entries in PAE mode are 64-bits
wide, but the only atomic 8-byte write operation available in 32-bit mode is
cmpxchg8b, which is expensive (at least on P4), and thus avoided.  But it can
happen that the processor may prefetch entries into the TLB in the middle of an
operation which clears a page table entry.  So one must always clear the P-bit
in the low word of the page table entry first when clearing it.

Since the sequence *ptep = __pte(0) leaves the order of the write dependent on
the compiler, it must be coded explicitly as a clear of the low word followed
by a clear of the high word.  Further, there must be a write memory barrier
here to enforce proper ordering by the compiler (and, in the future, by the
processor as well).

On > 4GB memory machines, the implementation of pte_clear for PAE was clearly
deficient, as it could leave virtual mappings of physical memory above 4GB
aliased to memory below 4GB in the TLB.  The implementation of
ptep_get_and_clear_full has a similar bug, although not nearly as likely to
occur, since the mappings being cleared are in the process of being destroyed,
and should never be dereferenced again.

But, as luck would have it, it is possible to trigger bugs even without ever
dereferencing these bogus TLB mappings, even if the clear is followed fairly
soon after with a TLB flush or invalidation.  The problem is that memory above
4GB may now be aliased into the first 4GB of memory, and in fact, may hit a
region of memory with non-memory semantics.  These regions include AGP and PCI
space.  As such, these memory regions are not cached by the processor.  This
introduces the bug.

The processor can speculate memory operations, including memory writes, as long
as they are committed with the proper ordering.  Speculating a memory write to
a linear address that has a bogus TLB mapping is possible.  Normally, the
speculation is harmless.  But for cached memory, it does leave the falsely
speculated cacheline unmodified, but in a dirty state.  This cache line will be
eventually written back.  If this cacheline happens to intersect a region of
memory that is not protected by the cache coherency protocol, it can corrupt
data in I/O memory, which is generally a very bad thing to do, and can cause
total system failure or just plain undefined behavior.

These bugs are extremely unlikely, but the severity is of such magnitude, and
the fix so simple that I think fixing them immediately is justified.  Also,
they are nearly impossible to debug.

Registering a callback handler through register_die_notifier() is obviously
primarily intended for use by modules.  However, the way these currently
get called it is basically impossible for them to actually be used by
modules, as there is, on non-PAE configurationes, a good chance (the larger
the module, the better) for the system to crash as a result.

This is because the callback gets invoked

(a) in the page fault path before the top level page table propagation
    gets carried out (hence a fault to propagate the top level page table
    entry/entries mapping to module's code/data would nest infinitly) and

(b) in the NMI path, where nested faults must absolutely not happen,
    since otherwise the IRET from the nested fault re-enables NMIs,
    potentially resulting in nested NMI occurences.

Besides the modular aspect, similar problems would even arise for in-
kernel consumers of the API if they touched ioremap()ed or vmalloc()ed
memory inside their handlers.

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!
