Subject: [PATCH v4 00/16] powerpc/32: Use BATs/LTLBs for STRICT_KERNEL_RWX

The purpose of this serie is to:
- use BATs with STRICT_KERNEL_RWX on book3s (See patch 13 for details.)
- use LTLBs with STRICT_KERNEL_RWX on 8xx (See patch 15 for a few details.)

v4:
- Fixed mapin_ram() to only map mem below total_lowmem (patch 4)
- Fixed sparse warning by making __mmu_mapin_ram static (patch 13)

v3:
- Reordered to avoid build failure due to setibat() not being used for several steps in the serie.
Now the patch using setibat() is next to the one adding setibat().
- Fixed mmu_mapin_ram() in patch 3 to return base in all cases, thanks Jonathan for the test
- Fixed build failure on 8xx when CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS is set due to too many instructions in Exception 0x1200
- Made 8M alignment for data the default on 8xx when STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is selected.
- Added patch 1 to not set additionnal bat on the wii when requesting nobats. The only purpose of this patch
is to be backported, as this function is removed later in the series.

v2:
- Fix patch 2 (was patch 3 in v1) based on feedback from Jonathan.
- Added support for 8xx with LTLBs.
- Added systematic population of pagetables for Abatron BDI.

Christophe Leroy (16):
  powerpc/wii: properly disable use of BATs when requested.
  powerpc/mm/32: add base address to mmu_mapin_ram()
  powerpc/mm/32s: rework mmu_mapin_ram()
  powerpc/mm/32s: use generic mmu_mapin_ram() for all blocks.
  powerpc/32: always populate page tables for Abatron BDI.
  powerpc/wii: remove wii_mmu_mapin_mem2()
  powerpc/mm/32s: use _PAGE_EXEC in setbat()
  powerpc/32: add helper to write into segment registers
  powerpc/mmu: add is_strict_kernel_rwx() helper
  powerpc/kconfig: define PAGE_SHIFT inside Kconfig
  powerpc/kconfig: define CONFIG_DATA_SHIFT and CONFIG_ETEXT_SHIFT
  powerpc/mm/32s: add setibat() clearibat() and update_bats()
  powerpc/mm/32s: Use BATs for STRICT_KERNEL_RWX
  powerpc/kconfig: make _etext and data areas alignment configurable on
    Book3s 32
  powerpc/8xx: don't disable large TLBs with CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX
  powerpc/kconfig: make _etext and data areas alignment configurable on
    8xx
