This adds tests which will validate architecture page table helpers and
other accessors in their compliance with expected generic MM semantics.
This will help various architectures in validating changes to existing
page table helpers or addition of new ones.

This test covers basic page table entry transformations including but not
limited to old, young, dirty, clean, write, write protect etc at various
level along with populating intermediate entries with next page table page
and validating them.

Test page table pages are allocated from system memory with required size
and alignments. The mapped pfns at page table levels are derived from a
real pfn representing a valid kernel text symbol. This test gets called
inside kernel_init() right after async_synchronize_full().

This test gets built and run when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE is selected. Any
architecture, which is willing to subscribe this test will need to select
ARCH_HAS_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE. For now this is limited to arc, arm64, x86, s390
and ppc32 platforms where the test is known to build and run successfully.
Going forward, other architectures too can subscribe the test after fixing
any build or runtime problems with their page table helpers. Meanwhile for
better platform coverage, the test can also be enabled with CONFIG_EXPERT
even without ARCH_HAS_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE.

Folks interested in making sure that a given platform's page table helpers
conform to expected generic MM semantics should enable the above config
which will just trigger this test during boot. Any non conformity here will
be reported as an warning which would need to be fixed. This test will help
catch any changes to the agreed upon semantics expected from generic MM and
enable platforms to accommodate it thereafter.

This adds a test validation for architecture exported page table helpers.
Patch adds basic transformation tests at various levels of the page table.

This test was originally suggested by Catalin during arm64 THP migration
RFC discussion earlier. Going forward it can include more specific tests
with respect to various generic MM functions like THP, HugeTLB etc and
platform specific tests.

OK, I get this working on powerpc hash MMU as well, so this?

Hmm, set_pte_at() function is not preferred here for these tests. The idea
is to avoid or atleast minimize TLB/cache flushes triggered from these sort
of 'static' tests. set_pte_at() is platform provided and could/might trigger
these flushes or some other platform specific synchronization stuff. Just
wondering is there specific reason with respect to the soft lock up problem
making it necessary to use set_pte_at() rather than a simple WRITE_ONCE() ?

Looks at the s390 version of set_pte_at(), it has this comment,

I can only guess that powerpc  could be the same here.

Primarily reason is to avoid TLB/cache flush instructions on the system
during these tests that only involve transforming different page table
level entries through helpers. Unless really necessary, why should it
emit any TLB/cache flush instructions ?

This comment is present in multiple platforms while defining set_pte_at().
Is not 'barrier()' here alone good enough ? Else what exactly set_pte_at()
does as compared to WRITE_ONCE() that avoids the soft lock up, just trying
to understand.

No, barrier() is not enough.

I surely can spend hours to figure which exact things in set_pte_at() is necessary for
pte_clear() not to stuck, and then propose a solution and possible need to retest on
multiple arches. I am not sure if that is a good use of my time just to saving
a few TLB/cache flush on a debug kernel?

What's the problem with thoses flushes ?

Argh ! I didn't realise that you were writing directly into the page 
tables. When it works, that's only by chance I guess.

To properly set the page table entries, set_pte_at() has to be used:
- On powerpc 8xx, with 16k pages, the page table entry must be copied 
four times. set_pte_at() does it, WRITE_ONCE() doesn't.
- On powerpc book3s/32 (hash MMU), the flag _PAGE_HASHPTE must be 
preserved among writes. set_pte_at() preserves it, WRITE_ONCE() doesn't.

set_pte_at() also does a few other mandatory things, like calling 
pte_mkpte()

So, the WRITE_ONCE() must definitely become a set_pte_at()

Sure, will do. These are part of the clear tests that populates a given
entry with a non zero value before clearing and testing it with pxx_none().
In that context, WRITE_ONCE() seemed sufficient. But pte_clear() might be
closely tied with proper page table entry update and hence a preceding
set_pte_at() will be better.

There are still more WRITE_ONCE() for other page table levels during these
clear tests. set_pmd_at() and set_pud_at() are defined on platforms that
support (and enable) THP and PUD based THP respectively. Hence they could
not be used for clear tests as remaining helpers pmd_clear(), pud_clear(),
p4d_clear() and pgd_clear() still need to be validated with or without
THP support and enablement. We should just leave all other WRITE_ONCE()
instances unchanged. Please correct me if I am missing something here.
