David S. Miller 679292993c [SPARC64]: Fix _PAGE_EXEC_4U check in sun4u I-TLB miss handler.
It was using an immediate _PAGE_EXEC_4U value in an 'and'
instruction to perform the test.  This doesn't work because
the immediate field is signed 13-bit, this the mask being
tested against the PTE was 0x1000 sign-extended to 32-bits
instead of just plain 0x1000.

David S. Miller 45f791eb0f [SPARC64]: Fix _PAGE_EXEC handling.
First of all, use the known _PAGE_EXEC_{4U,4V} value instead
of loading _PAGE_EXEC from memory.  We either know which one
to use by context, or we can code patch the test.

Next, we need to check executability of a PTE in the generic
TSB miss handler.

David S. Miller 8b23427441 [SPARC64]: More TLB/TSB handling fixes.
The SUN4V convention with non-shared TSBs is that the context
bit of the TAG is clear.  So we have to choose an "invalid"
bit and initialize new TSBs appropriately.  Otherwise a zero
TAG looks "valid".

Make sure, for the window fixup cases, that we use the right
global registers and that we don't potentially trample on
the live global registers in etrap/rtrap handling (%g2 and
%g6) and that we put the missing virtual address properly
in %g5.

David S. Miller c4bce90ea2 [SPARC64]: Deal with PTE layout differences in SUN4V.
Yes, you heard it right, they changed the PTE layout for
SUN4V.  Ho hum...

This is the simple and inefficient way to support this.
It'll get optimized, don't worry.

David S. Miller 517af33237 [SPARC64]: Access TSB with physical addresses when possible.
This way we don't need to lock the TSB into the TLB.
The trick is that every TSB load/store is registered into
a special instruction patch section.  The default uses
virtual addresses, and the patch instructions use physical
address load/stores.

We can't do this on all chips because only cheetah+ and later
have the physical variant of the atomic quad load.

David S. Miller 74bf4312ff [SPARC64]: Move away from virtual page tables, part 1.
We now use the TSB hardware assist features of the UltraSPARC
MMUs.

SMP is currently knowingly broken, we need to find another place
to store the per-cpu base pointers.  We hid them away in the TSB
base register, and that obviously will not work any more :-)

Another known broken case is non-8KB base page size.

Also noticed that flush_tlb_all() is not referenced anywhere, only
the internal __flush_tlb_all() (local cpu only) is used by the
sparc64 port, so we can get rid of flush_tlb_all().

The kernel gets it's own 8KB TSB (swapper_tsb) and each address space
gets it's own private 8K TSB.  Later we can add code to dynamically
increase the size of per-process TSB as the RSS grows.  An 8KB TSB is
good enough for up to about a 4MB RSS, after which the TSB starts to
incur many capacity and conflict misses.

We even accumulate OBP translations into the kernel TSB.

Another area for refinement is large page size support.  We could use
a secondary address space TSB to handle those.
