464fd83e84 MIPS: Limit fixrange_init() to the FIXMAP region
fixrange_init() allocates page tables for all addresses higher than
FIXADDR_TOP.  On processors that override the default FIXADDR_TOP
address of 0xfffe_0000, this can consume up to 4 pages (1 page per 4MB)
for pgd's that are never used.

325f8a0a31 MIPS: Two-level pagetables for 64-bit kernels with 64KB pages.
For 64-bit kernels with 64KB pages and two level page tables, there are
42 bits worth of virtual address space This is larger than the 40 bits of
virtual address space obtained with the default 4KB Page size and three
levels, so there are no draw backs for using two level tables with this
configuration.

e0cc87f594 MIPS: Shrink the size of tlb handler
By combining swapper_pg_dir and module_pg_dir, several if conditions
can be eliminated from the tlb exception handler. The reason they
can be combined is that, the effective virtual address of vmalloc
returned is at the bottom, and of module_alloc returned is at the
top. It also fixes the bug in vmalloc(), which happens when its
return address is not covered by the first pgd.

6a1e552947 [MIPS] Add external declaration of pagetable_init() to pgalloc.h
This fixes some sparse warnings.

pgtable-32.c:15:6: warning: symbol 'pgd_init' was not declared. Should it be static?

656be92f9a [MIPS] Load modules to CKSEG0 if CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64=n
This is a patch to load 64-bit modules to CKSEG0 so that can be
compiled with -msym32 option.  This makes each module ~10% smaller.

* introduce MODULE_START and MODULE_END
* custom module_alloc()
* PGD for modules
* change XTLB refill handler synthesizer
* enable -msym32 for modules again
  (revert ca78b1a5c6a6e70e052d3ea253828e49b5d07c8a)

New XTLB refill handler looks like this:

f8829caee3 [MIPS] Fix aliasing bug in copy_to_user_page / copy_from_user_page
The current implementation uses a sequence of a cacheflush and a copy.
This is racy in case of a multithreaded debuggee and renders GDB
virtually unusable.

Aside this fixes a performance hog rendering access to /proc/cmdline very
slow and resulting in a enough cache stalls for the 34K AP/SP programming
model to make the bare metal code on the non-Linux VPE miss RT deadlines.

The main part of this patch was originally written by Ralf Baechle;
Atushi Nemoto did the the debugging.

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!
