Subject: [PATCH v4 RESEND 0/11] x86/mm: Handle large PAT bit in pud/pmd interfaces
The PAT bit gets relocated to bit 12 when PUD/PMD mappings are used. This
bit 12, however, is not covered by PTE_FLAGS_MASK, which is corrently used
by masking pfn and flags for all levels. This patch-set updates pud/pmd
interfaces and multiple functions to handle the large PAT bit properly.
Patch 1/11-2/11 make changes necessary for patch 3/11 to use P?D_PAGE_MASK.
Patch 3/11-4/11 fix pud/pmd interfaces to handle the PAT bit properly.
Patch 5/11 adds p?d_pgprot() interfaces for PUD/PMD.
Patch 6/11 fixes /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables to show the PAT bit
properly.
Patch 7/11-10/11 fix multiple functions to handle the large PAT bit properly.
Patch 11/11 fixes the no-change case in try_preserve_large_page() by
leveraging the changes made in patch 9/11.
Note, the PAT bit is first enabled in 4.2-rc1 with WT mapping. The functions
fixed by patch 7/11-10/11 are not used with WT mapping yet. These fixes will
protect them from the future use of the PAT bit set.
The patchset is based on the -tip branch.

v4:
- Add descriptions of the issue fixed by patch 01/11 (Thomas Gleixner).
- Split patch 03 into two patches, mask changes & pud/pmd interface changes.
(Thomas Gleixner).
v3:
- Add patch 4/11 and 6/11-9/11 for multiple interfaces to handle the large
PAT bit.
- Add patch 11/11 to fix the same pgprot handling in
try_preserve_large_page().
v2:
- Change p?n_pfn() to handle the PAT bit. (Juergen Gross)
- Mask pfn and flags with P?D_PAGE_MASK. (Juergen Gross)
- Change p?d_page_vaddr() and p?d_page() to handle the PAT bit.
