jump_label: mips: move module NOP patching into arch code

MIPS is the only remaining architecture that needs to patch jump label
NOP encodings to initialize them at load time. So let's move the module
patching part of that from generic code into arch/mips, and drop it from
the others.

MIPS: module: optimize module relocations processing

For now, module relocation functions are implemented as an array
of handlers of type reloc_handler_t.

Convert that array into a single switch-case function to:
- remove unused arguments;
- change the return type of simple handlers to void;
- remove the array and don't use any data at all;
- avoid using indirect calls;
- allow the compiler to inline and greatly optimize
the relocation function[s].

The result on MIPS32 R2 with GCC 10.2 -O2 is:

mm: don't include asm/pgtable.h if linux/mm.h is already included

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.

The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.

static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}

These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.

For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.

These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.

This patch (of 12):

The linux/mm.h header includes <asm/pgtable.h> to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include <asm/pgtable.h>
in the files that include <linux/mm.h>.

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do
sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f
done

MIPS: Bail on unsupported module relocs

When an unsupported reloc is encountered in a module, we currently
blindly branch to whatever would be at its entry in the reloc handler
function pointer arrays. This may be NULL, or if the unsupported reloc
has a type greater than that of the supported reloc with the highest
type then we'll dereference some value after the function pointer array
& branch to that. The result is at best a kernel oops.

Fix this by checking that the reloc type has an entry in the function
pointer array (ie. is less than the number of items in the array) and
that the handler is non-NULL, returning an error code to fail the module
load if no handler is found.

mm: vmalloc: pass additional vm_flags to __vmalloc_node_range()

For instrumenting global variables KASan will shadow memory backing memory
for modules. So on module loading we will need to allocate memory for
shadow and map it at address in shadow that corresponds to the address
allocated in module_alloc().

__vmalloc_node_range() could be used for this purpose, except it puts a
guard hole after allocated area. Guard hole in shadow memory should be a
problem because at some future point we might need to have a shadow memory
at address occupied by guard hole. So we could fail to allocate shadow
for module_alloc().

Now we have VM_NO_GUARD flag disabling guard page, so we need to pass into
__vmalloc_node_range(). Add new parameter 'vm_flags' to
__vmalloc_node_range() function.

Four architectures (arm, mips, sparc, x86) use __vmalloc_area() for

__vmalloc_node() now calls into __vmalloc_node_range() with a range of

Each architecture may then use __vmalloc_node_range() directly to remove
the duplication of code.

Modules: handle symbols that have a zero value

The module subsystem cannot handle symbols that are zero. If symbols
are present that have a zero value then the module resolver prints out a
message that these symbols are unresolved.

We have to use IS_ERR_VALUE() to check that a symbol has been resolved
or not.
