[PATCH -v5 00/19] x86: Use BRK to pre mapping page table to make xen happy

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Thu Oct 18 2012 - 16:52:54 EST


on top of current linus/master and tip/x86/mm2, but please zap last patch in that branch.

1. use brk to mapping first PMD_SIZE range under end of ram.
2. top down to initialize page table range by range.
3. get rid of calculate_page_table, and find_early_page_table.
4. remove early_ioremap in page table accessing.
5. remove workaround in xen to mark page RO.

v2: changes, update xen interface about pagetable_reserve, so not
use pgt_buf_* in xen code directly.
v3: use range top-down to initialize page table, so will not use
calculating/find early table anymore.
also reorder the patches sequence.
v4: add mapping_mark_page_ro to fix xen, also move pgt_buf_* to init.c
and merge alloc_low_page(), and for 32bit need to add alloc_low_pages
to fix 32bit kmap setting.
v5: remove mark_page_ro workaround.
Add another 5 cleanup patches.
