Subject: [PATCH v5 0/8] huge vmalloc mappings

I made this powerpc-only for the time being. It shouldn't be too hard to
add support for other archs that define HUGE_VMAP. I have booted x86
with it enabled, just may not have audited everything.

Hi Andrew, would you care to put this in your tree?

Thanks,
Nick

Since v4:
- Fixed an off-by-page-order bug in v4
- Several minor cleanups.
- Added page order to /proc/vmallocinfo
- Added hugepage to alloc_large_system_hage output.
- Made an architecture config option, powerpc only for now.

Since v3:
- Fixed an off-by-one bug in a loop
- Fix !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP build fail
- Hopefully this time fix the arm64 vmap stack bug, thanks Jonathan
  Cameron for debugging the cause of this (hopefully).

Since v2:
- Rebased on vmalloc cleanups, split series into simpler pieces.
- Fixed several compile errors and warnings
- Keep the page array and accounting in small page units because
  struct vm_struct is an interface (this should fix x86 vmap stack debug
  assert). [Thanks Zefan]

Nicholas Piggin (8):
  mm/vmalloc: fix vmalloc_to_page for huge vmap mappings
  mm: apply_to_pte_range warn and fail if a large pte is encountered
  mm/vmalloc: rename vmap_*_range vmap_pages_*_range
  lib/ioremap: rename ioremap_*_range to vmap_*_range
  mm: HUGE_VMAP arch support cleanup
  mm: Move vmap_range from lib/ioremap.c to mm/vmalloc.c
  mm/vmalloc: add vmap_range_noflush variant
  mm/vmalloc: Hugepage vmalloc mappings
