Currently, s390 has the ability to configure the maximum kernel command
line size via Kconfig (CONFIG_COMMAND_LINE_SIZE). Other architectures
define a hardcoded COMMAND_LINE_SIZE macro in their setup.h headers.
In some use cases, such as netboot kernels, rootfs configurations, or
larger initramfs setups, a larger command line size is required. While
for embedded workloads, it can be reduced to save memory.
Move CONFIG_COMMAND_LINE_SIZE out of arch/s390/Kconfig and into
init/Kconfig under General setup, and update every architecture's setup.h
header to define COMMAND_LINE_SIZE as CONFIG_COMMAND_LINE_SIZE.
For user-space API (uapi) headers, wrap the definition in an `#ifdef
__KERNEL__` guard and retain the historical hardcoded default in the
`#else` block. When user-space headers are installed via `make
headers_install`, unifdef strips out the kernel section, ensuring the same
value as before for user-space applications including `<asm/setup.h>`.
For S390, the range is kept the same, but other architectures have varying
constraints. S390 requires a minimum of 896 bytes to protect legacy
bootloaders from overwriting the .text section. ARM, M68K, and NIOS2
allocate the command line directly on severely constrained decompressor
stacks, so their ranges are strictly capped at 2048 bytes to prevent
deterministic stack exhaustion and boot panics. PowerPC (PPC) boot
wrappers silently truncate arguments past 2048 bytes, so it is also capped
at 2048 to prevent silent parameter loss.
The SuperH (SUPERH) boot parameter page allocates exactly PAGE_SIZE
(typically 4096 bytes), and placing a 4096-byte command line starting at
offset 256 would cause strscpy() to read out of bounds; it is capped at
3840 bytes. Alpha physically limits its boot parameter block to 256
bytes, so its limit is strictly locked to 256. All other architectures
are capped at 4096 bytes to prevent unreasonable allocations.

Now every architecture has been converted to support
CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE, this configuration option no longer
makes any sense to keep around.
Therefore remove it, and remove all the dead code that existed for
!CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE architectures previously.
Additionally, CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE is no longer necessary, as all
architectures instead use CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE when a custom
__tlb_remove_table() is required, so remove this too.
A number of architectures only enabled CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE if
CONFIG_MMU was set, however the mmu_gather logic only actually does
something meaningful if CONFIG_MMU is set (mmu_gather.c is only compiled
in this case, for instance).
As a result, there's no need to gate any of this logic on CONFIG_MMU
explicitly.
CONFIG_PT_RECLAIM however does have a strict dependency on CONFIG_MMU, so
make this dependency explicit.
Additionally, correct comments to remove references to non-RCU page table
gathering and make it clear that this is not 'semi-RCU', nor has it been
since commit 1fb3d8c20bfa ("mm/mmu_gather: replace IPI with
synchronize_rcu() when batch allocation fails").
With this change in place the kernel policy is now that all page tables
are freed after an RCU grace period, and thus it is now safe to
unconditionally perform page table walks under RCU, safe in the knowledge
that page tables will not be freed underneath the walker.
This is all that is guaranteed, however, so naturally it is still
incumbent upon page table walkers to ensure that the page table entries
are as expected.

Each of these architectures directly free page tables without routing
these changes through tlb_remove_ptdesc().
The use of tlb_remove_ptdesc() is required for
CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE to correctly free page tables under RCU,
so simply update these architectures to use these functions.
Since none of the architectures share page tables or do anything unusual,
nothing complicated is required here.
Therefore this is simply a mechanical change - convert __pud_free_tlb(),
__pmd_free_tlb() and __pte_free_tlb() to use tlb_remove_ptdesc() as
required.
At the point this is in place, all mmu_gather page table freeing is
performed under RCU, and thus MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is selected for
each architecture.
Note that CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is dependent on CONFIG_MMU for
xtensa to reflect the fact that nommu does not implement page table
gathering.
This forms part of an overall effort to switch every architecture to this
mode.

In calibrate_ccount(), of_clk_get() acquires a reference to the CPU
clock, but clk_put() is never called to release it. The clock
reference is used only to read the frequency via clk_get_rate(),
then the function returns immediately, leaking the reference.
Fix this by calling clk_put(clk) before returning.

Nothing in suspend.h needs swap.h. However, many files indirectly
depend on some of swap.h's dependencies, so this is a large
cross-subsystem patch. Stats:
42 are missing includes of interrupt.h (the question of why swap.h
brings in interrupt.h remains unanswered).
10 missing includes of seq_file.h
5 missing includes of swap.h (obviously all files could have just added
swap.h, but I preferred to bring in a more minimal inclusion set)
3 missing includes of highmem.h
2 missing includes of device.h
2 missing includes of string_choices.h
1 missing include of cacheflush.h
1 missing include of dma-direction.h
1 missing include of kthread.h
1 missing include of pagemap.h
1 missing include of string_helpers.h
1 missing include of writeback.h
I tried to follow whatever conventions appeared to be in use for the

drm_print.h instead of individually to each driver which used the
functions declared there.

Pull generic entry code updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Make syscall user dispatching configurable
Not all architectures can makes use of syscall user dispatching.
Allow them to disable the feature completely.
- Consolidate stack randomization for the generic entry code and the
architectures using it.
Stack randomization on syscall entry was sprinkled throughout the
architecture specific low level entry code and in some cases at the
wrong points, e.g. before establishing state, which violates the
non-instrumentable constraints of that code.
Clean this up by integrating stack randomization into the generic
entry code helpers so that it is invoked at the earliest possible
point right after establishing state and converting all generic entry
code using architecture over.
- Clean up the syscall number handling in the generic entry code. It
works correctly for architectures which have a separate return value
storage in pt_regs, but fails to distinguish the case where user
space handed in -1 as syscall number from the case where the entry
code rejects it by returning -1 to the callers. Aside of that the
return value functionality of those interfaces is not really
intuitive.
Fix this by separating the decision to reject a syscall (user
dispatch, ptrace, seccomp ...) from the potential modification of the
syscall number through these mechanisms.
This solves most of the problems for architectures which do not have
a separate return value storage in pt_regs except for the case where
a tracepoint has a BPF script or a probe attached which overwrite
both the syscall number and the return value. But that's a problem
which cannot be solved in the generic code, that only can be
addressed by separating the storage model in the affected
architectures.

When simdisk support is built as a loadable module,
simdisk_param_set_filename() receives a pointer into module::args and
stores each filename pointer as is.
In preparation for removing module::args, update the simdisk.filename
parameter code to copy the provided string. This is somewhat complicated by
the fact that simdisk support can also be built-in, in which case the
parameters are parsed during early boot before slab is available. In that
case, the command line itself is preserved for the lifetime of the kernel,
so continue storing the incoming pointer directly.

The return value of __secure_computing() currently uses 0 to indicate
that a system call should be allowed, and -1 to indicate that it should
be blocked/killed. This 0/-1 pattern is non-intuitive for a security
check function and makes the control flow at the call sites less readable.
Furthermore, any potential future changes to these return values would
require a high-risk, error-prone audit of all its users across different
architectures.
Sanitize this logic by converting the return type of __secure_computing()
to a proper boolean, where 'true' explicitly means 'allow' and 'false'
means 'fail/deny'.
Update all the two dozen or so call sites across the tree to align with
this new boolean semantic. No functional changes are intended, as the
callers still return -1 to the lower-level assembly entry code upon
seccomp denial.
Rename the function to __seccomp_permit_syscall() so that the purpose is
entirely clear.

Pull interrupt core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Rework of /proc/interrupt handling:
/proc/interrupts was subject to micro optimizations for a long time,
but most of the low hanging fruit was left on the table. This rework
addresses the major time consuming issues:
- Printing a long series of zeros one by one via a format string
instead of counting subsequent zeros and emitting a string
constant.
- Simplify and cache the conditions whether interrupts should be
printed
- Use a proper iteration over the interrupt descriptor xarray
instead of walking and testing one by one.
- Provide helper functions for the architecture code to emit the
architecture specific counters
- Convert the counter structure in x86 to an array, which
simplifies the output and add mechanisms to suppress unused
architecture interrupts, which just occupy space for nothing.
Adopt the new core mechanisms.
This adjusts the gdb scripts related to interrupt counter statistics
to work with the new mechanisms.
- Prevent a string overflow in the /proc/irq/$N/ directory name
creation code.

The kernel allows arches to select between inline and outline
implementations of the copy_{from,to}_user() by defining individual
INLINE_COPY_FROM_USER and INLINE_COPY_TO_USER, correspondingly. However,
all arches enable or disable them always together.
Without the real use-case for one helper being inlined while the other
outlined, having independent controls is excessive and error prone.
Switch the codebase to the single unified INLINE_COPY_USER control.

Quite some architectures have four character wide acronyms for architecture
specific interrupts like IPI, NMI, etc.
The default precision of printing the Linux device interrupt numbers is
three, which causes quite some code to play games with adding or omitting
space after the acronym and the colon in order to keep the per CPU numbers
properly aligned.
Increase the default number precision to four in the core code and get rid
of the space games all over the place. At the same time align all
architecture specific descriptor texts left so that they show up in the
same column as the interrupt chip names, which makes the output more
uniform accross architectures. Fix up the GDB script to this new scheme as
well.

On real hardware, panic and machine reboot may not flush hardware cache
to memory. This means the persistent ring buffer, which relies on a
coherent state of memory, may not have its events written to the buffer
and they may be lost. Moreover, there may be inconsistency with the
counters which are used for validation of the integrity of the
persistent ring buffer which may cause all data to be discarded.
To avoid this issue, stop recording of the ring buffer on panic and
flush the cache of the ring buffer's memory.

With strnlen(), iss_console_write() is further hardened against callers

Pull pci updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
"Enumeration:
- Allow TLP Processing Hints to be enabled for RCiEPs (George Abraham
P)
- Enable AtomicOps only if we know the Root Port supports them (Gerd
Bayer)
- Don't enable AtomicOps for RCiEPs since none of them need Atomic
Ops and we can't tell whether the Root Complex would support them
(Gerd Bayer)
- Leave Precision Time Measurement disabled until a driver enables it
to avoid PCIe errors (Mika Westerberg)
- Make pci_set_vga_state() fail if bridge doesn't support VGA
routing, i.e., PCI_BRIDGE_CTL_VGA is not writable, and return
errors to vga_get() callers including userspace via
/dev/vga_arbiter (Simon Richter)
- Validate max-link-speed from DT in j721e, brcmstb, mediatek-gen3,
rzg3s drivers (where the actual controller constraints are known),

- Remove pc110pad driver (no longer useful after 486 CPU support
removed) and no_pci_devices() (pc110pad was the last user) (Dmitry
Torokhov, Heiner Kallweit)
Resource management:
- Prevent assigning space to unimplemented bridge windows; previously

window; fixes one problem with devices with large BARs connected
via switches, e.g., Thunderbolt (Ilpo Järvinen)

address space (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Fix alignment calculation for resource size larger than align,
e.g., bridge windows larger than the 1MB required alignment (Ilpo
Järvinen)
Reset:

result (Keith Busch)
- Make sysfs reset_subordinate hotplug safe to avoid spurious hotplug
events (Keith Busch)
- Hide Secondary Bus Reset ('bus') from sysfs reset_methods if masked
by CXL because it has no effect (Vidya Sagar)

clearing Emergency Power Reduction Detected (Shuai Xue)
- Check for AER errors even in devices without drivers (Lukas Wunner)
- Initialize ratelimit info so DPC and EDR paths log AER error
information (Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan)

is gone (Richard Cheng)
Peer-to-peer DMA:
- Allow wildcards in list of host bridges that support peer-to-peer
DMA between hierarchy domains and add all Google SoCs (Jacob

Endpoint framework:
- Advertise dynamic inbound mapping support in pci-epf-test and
update host pci_endpoint_test to skip doorbell testing if not

(Daniel Hodges)
- Remove vntb and ntb duplicate resource teardown that leads to oops
when .allow_link() fails or .drop_link() is called (Koichiro Den)
- Disable vntb delayed work before clearing BAR mappings and
doorbells to avoid oops caused by doing the work after resources
have been torn down (Koichiro Den)
- Add a way to describe reserved subregions within BARs, e.g.,
platform-owned fixed register windows, and use it for the RK3588
BAR4 DMA ctrl window (Koichiro Den)
- Add BAR_DISABLED for BARs that will never be available to an EPF
driver, and change some BAR_RESERVED annotations to BAR_DISABLED
(Niklas Cassel)
- Add NTB .get_dma_dev() callback for cases where DMA API requires a
different device, e.g., vNTB devices (Koichiro Den)
- Add reserved region types for MSI-X Table and PBA so Endpoint
controllers can them as describe hardware-owned regions in a
BAR_RESERVED BAR (Manikanta Maddireddy)
- Make Tegra194/234 BAR0 programmable and remove 1MB size limit
(Manikanta Maddireddy)

Patch series "change young flag check functions to return bool", v2.
This is a cleanup patchset to change all young flag check functions to
return bool, as discussed with David in the previous thread[1]. Since
callers only care about whether the young flag was set, returning bool
makes the intention clearer. No functional changes intended.
This patch (of 6):
Callers use ptep_test_and_clear_young() to clear the young flag and check
whether it was set. Change the return type to bool to make the intention
clearer.

Reduce 22 declarations of empty_zero_page to 3 and 23 declarations of
ZERO_PAGE() to 4.
Every architecture defines empty_zero_page that way or another, but for the
most of them it is always a page aligned page in BSS and most definitions
of ZERO_PAGE do virt_to_page(empty_zero_page).
Move Linus vetted x86 definition of empty_zero_page and ZERO_PAGE() to the
core MM and drop these definitions in architectures that do not implement
colored zero page (MIPS and s390).
ZERO_PAGE() remains a macro because turning it to a wrapper for a static
inline causes severe pain in header dependencies.
For the most part the change is mechanical, with these being noteworthy:
* alpha: aliased empty_zero_page with ZERO_PGE that was also used for boot
parameters. Switching to a generic empty_zero_page removes the aliasing
and keeps ZERO_PGE for boot parameters only
* arm64: uses __pa_symbol() in ZERO_PAGE() so that definition of
ZERO_PAGE() is kept intact.
* m68k/parisc/um: allocated empty_zero_page from memblock,
although they do not support zero page coloring and having it in BSS
will work fine.
* sparc64 can have empty_zero_page in BSS rather allocate it, but it
can't use virt_to_page() for BSS. Keep it's definition of ZERO_PAGE()
but instead of allocating it, make mem_map_zero point to
empty_zero_page.
* sh: used empty_zero_page for boot parameters at the very early boot.
Rename the parameters page to boot_params_page and let sh use the generic
empty_zero_page.
* hexagon: had an amusing comment about empty_zero_page
/* A handy thing to have if one has the RAM. Declared in head.S */
that unfortunately had to go :)

When a bridge window contains big and small resource(s), the small
resource(s) may not amount to the half of the size of the big resource
which would allow calculate_head_align() to shrink the head alignment.
This results in always placing the small resource(s) after the big
resource.
In general, it would be good to be able to place the small resource(s)
before the big resource to achieve better utilization of the address space.
In the cases where the large resource can only fit at the end of the
window, it is even required.
However, carrying the information over from pbus_size_mem() and
calculate_head_align() to __pci_assign_resource() and
pcibios_align_resource() is not easy with the current data structures.
A somewhat hacky way to move the non-aligning tail part to the head is
possible within pcibios_align_resource(). The free space between the start
of the free space span and the aligned start address can be compared with
the non-aligning remainder of the size. If the free space is larger than
the remainder, placing the remainder before the start address is possible.
This relocation should generally work, because PCI resources consist only
power-of-2 atoms.
Various arch requirements may still need to override the relocation, so the

__find_resource_space() calculates the full extent of empty space but only
passes the aligned space to resource_alignf callback. In some situations,
the callback may choose take advantage of the free space before the
requested alignment.
Pass the full extent of the calculated empty space to resource_alignf
callback as an additional parameter.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Scheduler Kconfig space updates:
- Further consolidate configurable preemption modes (Peter Zijlstra)
Reduce the number of architectures that are allowed to offer
PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY, reducing the number of
preemption models from four to just two: 'full' and 'lazy' on
up-to-date architectures (arm64, loongarch, powerpc, riscv, s390,
x86).
None and voluntary are only available as legacy features on
platforms that don't implement lazy preemption yet, or which don't
even support preemption.
The goal is to eventually remove cond_resched() and voluntary
preemption altogether.
RSEQ based 'scheduler time slice extension' support (Thomas Gleixner

This allows a thread to request a time slice extension when it enters
a critical section to avoid contention on a resource when the thread
is scheduled out inside of the critical section.

- Provide static branch for time slice extensions
- Add statistics for time slice extensions
- Add prctl() to enable time slice extensions

improves the scalability of various workloads (Shubhang Kaushik)
- Reorder fields in 'struct rq' for better caching (Blake Jones)
- Fair scheduler SMP NOHZ balancing code speedups (Shrikanth Hegde):
- Move checking for nohz cpus after time check
- Change likelyhood of nohz.nr_cpus
- Remove nohz.nr_cpus and use weight of cpumask instead
- Avoid false sharing for sched_clock_irqtime (Wangyang Guo)
- Cleanups (Yury Norov):
- Drop useless cpumask_empty() in find_energy_efficient_cpu()
- Simplify task_numa_find_cpu()
- Use cpumask_weight_and() in sched_balance_find_dst_group()

Fernandes, with fixes by Peter Zijlstra)
RT scheduler updates:
- Skip currently executing CPU in rto_next_cpu() (Chen Jinghuang)
Entry code updates and performance improvements (Jinjie Ruan)
This is part of the scheduler tree in this cycle due to inter-
dependencies with the RSEQ based time slice extension work:
- Remove unused syscall argument from syscall_trace_enter()
- Rework syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work() for architecture reuse
- Add arch_ptrace_report_syscall_entry/exit()
- Inline syscall_exit_work() and syscall_trace_enter()

- Switch to rcu_dereference_all()
- Remove superfluous rcu_read_lock()
- Limit hrtick work
- Join two #ifdef CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED blocks

- Separate se->vlag from se->vprot
- Rename cfs_rq::avg_load to cfs_rq::sum_weight
- Rename cfs_rq::avg_vruntime to ::sum_w_vruntime & helper functions
- Introduce and use the vruntime_cmp() and vruntime_op() wrappers for
wrapped-signed aritmetics
- Sort out 'blocked_load*' namespace noise
Scheduler debugging code updates:

To initialize node, zone and memory map data structures every architecture
calls free_area_init() during setup_arch() and passes it an array of zone
limits.
Beside code duplication it creates "interesting" ordering cases between
allocation and initialization of hugetlb and the memory map. Some
architectures allocate hugetlb pages very early in setup_arch() in certain
cases, some only create hugetlb CMA areas in setup_arch() and sometimes
hugetlb allocations happen mm_core_init().
With arch_zone_limits_init() helper available now on all architectures it
is no longer necessary to call free_area_init() from architecture setup
code. Rather core MM initialization can call arch_zone_limits_init() in a
single place.
This allows to unify ordering of hugetlb vs memory map allocation and
initialization.
Remove the call to free_area_init() from architecture specific code and
place it in a new mm_core_init_early() function that is called immediately
after setup_arch().
After this refactoring it is possible to consolidate hugetlb allocations
and eliminate differences in ordering of hugetlb and memory map
initialization among different architectures.
As the first step of this consolidation move hugetlb_bootmem_alloc() to
mm_core_early_init().

Move calculations of zone limits to a dedicated arch_zone_limits_init()
function.
Later MM core will use this function as an architecture specific callback
during nodes and zones initialization and thus there won't be a need to
call free_area_init() from every architecture.

Provide a new syscall which has the only purpose to yield the CPU after the
kernel granted a time slice extension.
sched_yield() is not suitable for that because it unconditionally
schedules, but the end of the time slice extension is not required to
schedule when the task was already preempted. This also allows to have a
strict check for termination to catch user space invoking random syscalls
including sched_yield() from a time slice extension region.

Remove <linux/hex.h> from <linux/kernel.h> and update all users/callers of
hex.h interfaces to directly #include <linux/hex.h> as part of the process
of putting kernel.h on a diet.
Removing hex.h from kernel.h means that 36K C source files don't have to
pay the price of parsing hex.h for the roughly 120 C source files that
need it.
This change has been build-tested with allmodconfig on most ARCHes. Also,

Patch series "mm: folio_zero_user: clear page ranges", v11.
This series adds clearing of contiguous page ranges for hugepages.
The series improves on the current discontiguous clearing approach in two
ways:
- clear pages in a contiguous fashion.
- use batched clearing via clear_pages() wherever exposed.
The first is useful because it allows us to make much better use of
hardware prefetchers.
The second, enables advertising the real extent to the processor. Where
specific instructions support it (ex. string instructions on x86; "mops"
on arm64 etc), a processor can optimize based on this because, instead of
seeing a sequence of 8-byte stores, or a sequence of 4KB pages, it sees a
larger unit being operated on.
For instance, AMD Zen uarchs (for extents larger than LLC-size) switch to
a mode where they start eliding cacheline allocation. This is helpful not
just because it results in higher bandwidth, but also because now the
cache is not evicting useful cachelines and replacing them with zeroes.
Demand faulting a 64GB region shows performance improvement:
$ perf bench mem mmap -p $pg-sz -f demand -s 64GB -l 5
baseline +series
(GBps +- %stdev) (GBps +- %stdev)
pg-sz=2MB 11.76 +- 1.10% 25.34 +- 1.18% [*] +115.47% preempt=*
pg-sz=1GB 24.85 +- 2.41% 39.22 +- 2.32% + 57.82% preempt=none|voluntary
pg-sz=1GB (similar) 52.73 +- 0.20% [#] +112.19% preempt=full|lazy
[*] This improvement is because switching to sequential clearing
allows the hardware prefetchers to do a much better job.
[#] For pg-sz=1GB a large part of the improvement is because of the
cacheline elision mentioned above. preempt=full|lazy improves upon
that because, not needing explicit invocations of cond_resched() to
ensure reasonable preemption latency, it can clear the full extent
as a single unit. In comparison the maximum extent used for
preempt=none|voluntary is PROCESS_PAGES_NON_PREEMPT_BATCH (32MB).
When provided the full extent the processor forgoes allocating
cachelines on this path almost entirely.
(The hope is that eventually, in the fullness of time, the lazy
preemption model will be able to do the same job that none or
voluntary models are used for, allowing us to do away with
cond_resched().)
Raghavendra also tested previous version of the series on AMD Genoa and
sees similar improvement [1] with preempt=lazy.
$ perf bench mem map -p $page-size -f populate -s 64GB -l 10
base patched change
pg-sz=2MB 12.731939 GB/sec 26.304263 GB/sec 106.6%
pg-sz=1GB 26.232423 GB/sec 61.174836 GB/sec 133.2%
This patch (of 8):
Let's drop all variants that effectively map to clear_page() and provide
it in a generic variant instead.
We'll use the macro clear_user_page to indicate whether an architecture
provides it's own variant.
Also, clear_user_page() is only called from the generic variant of
clear_user_highpage(), so define it only if the architecture does not
provide a clear_user_highpage(). And, for simplicity define it in
linux/highmem.h.
Note that for parisc, clear_page() and clear_user_page() map to
clear_page_asm(), so we can just get rid of the custom clear_user_page()
implementation. There is a clear_user_page_asm() function on parisc, that
seems to be unused. Not sure what's up with that.

The "SYSCALL_MAX_ARGS" appears to have been unused since
commit 32d92586629a ("syscalls: Remove start and number from
syscall_set_arguments() args"), so remove it.

access_ok() is used only in user mode and
branches to .Linvalid_instruction on fault.
Kernel mode skips access_ok().
