Subject: [RFC V1 00/31] mm/mmap: Drop protection_map[] and platform's __SXXX/__PXXX requirements

protection_map[] is an array based construct that translates given vm_flags
combination. This array contains page protection map, which is populated by
the platform via [__S000 .. __S111] and [__P000 .. __P111] exported macros.
Primary usage for protection_map[] is for vm_get_page_prot(), which is used
to determine page protection value for a given vm_flags. vm_get_page_prot()
implementation, could again call platform overrides arch_vm_get_page_prot()
and arch_filter_pgprot(). Some platforms override protection_map[] that was
originally built with __SXXX/__PXXX with different runtime values.

Currently there are multiple layers of abstraction i.e __SXXX/__PXXX macros
, protection_map[], arch_vm_get_page_prot() and arch_filter_pgprot() built
between the platform and generic MM, finally defining vm_get_page_prot().

Hence this series proposes to drop all these abstraction levels and instead
just move the responsibility of defining vm_get_page_prot() to the platform
itself making it clean and simple.

This first introduces ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT which enables the platforms
to define custom vm_get_page_prot(). This starts converting platforms that
either change protection_map[] or define the overrides arch_filter_pgprot()
or arch_vm_get_page_prot() which enables for those constructs to be dropped
off completely. This series then converts remaining platforms which enables
for __SXXX/__PXXX constructs to be dropped off completely. Finally it drops
the generic vm_get_page_prot() and then ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT as every
platform now defines their own vm_get_page_prot().

The last patch demonstrates how vm_flags combination indices can be defined
as macros and be replaces across all platforms (if required, not done yet).

The series has been inspired from an earlier discuss with Christoph Hellwig

https://lore.kernel.org/all/1632712920-8171-1-git-send-email-anshuman.khandual@arm.com/

This series applies on 5.17-rc1 after the following patch.

https://lore.kernel.org/all/1643004823-16441-1-git-send-email-anshuman.khandual@arm.com/

This has been cross built for multiple platforms. I would like to get some
early feed back on this proposal. All reviews and suggestions welcome.

Hello Christoph,

I have taken the liberty to preserve your authorship on the x86 patch which
is borrowed almost as is from our earlier discussion. I have also added you
as 'Suggested-by:' on the patch that adds config ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT.
Nonetheless please feel free to correct me for any other missing authorship
attributes I should have added. Thank you.
