Subject: [RFC][PATCH 03/10] x86/mm: introduce "default" kernel PTE mask


From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@...ux.intel.com>

The __PAGE_KERNEL_* page permissions are "raw".  They contain bits
that may or may not be supported on the current processor.  They
need to be filtered by a mask (currently __supported_pte_mask) to
turn them into a value that we can actually set in a PTE.

These __PAGE_KERNEL_* values all contain _PAGE_GLOBAL.  But, with
PTI, we want to be able to support _PAGE_GLOBAL (have the bit set
in __supported_pte_mask) but not have it appear in any of these
masks by default.

This patch creates a new mask, __default_kernel_pte_mask, and
applies it when creating all of the PAGE_KERNEL_* masks.  This
makes PAGE_KERNEL_* safe to use anywhere (they only contain
supported bits).  It also ensures that PAGE_KERNEL_* contains
_PAGE_GLOBAL on PTI=n kernels but clears _PAGE_GLOBAL when
PTI=y.
