[PATCH v2] MIPS: Make virt_to_phys() work for all unmapped addresses.

From: David Daney

From: David Daney <david.daney@xxxxxxxxxx>

As reported:
This problem was discovered when doing BGP traffic with the TCP MD5 option
activated, where the following call chain caused a crash:

* tcp_v4_rcv
* tcp_v4_timewait_ack
* tcp_v4_send_ack -> follow stack variable rep.th
* tcp_v4_md5_hash_hdr
* tcp_md5_hash_header
* sg_init_one
* sg_set_buf
* virt_to_page

I noticed that tcp_v4_send_reset uses a similar stack variable and
also calls tcp_v4_md5_hash_hdr, so it has the same problem.

The networking core can indirectly call virt_to_phys() on stack
addresses, if this is done from PID 0, the stack will usually be in
CKSEG0, so virt_to_phys() needs to work there as well

This one appears to build against Linus' tree.

This could also fix problems noted by Eunbong Song with the
free_initmem_default() call.
