Re: [PATCH 1/2] Revert "powerpc/8xx: add support for huge pages on VMAP and VMALLOC"

From: Christophe Leroy

This reverts commit a6a8f7c4aa7eb50304b5c4e68eccd24313f3a785.

Commit c742199a014d ("mm/pgtable: add stubs for
{pmd/pub}_{set/clear}_huge") breaks the boot for arm64 when block
mappings are used to create the linear map, as this relies on a working
implementation of pXd_set_huge() even if the corresponding page-table
levels have been folded.

Although the problematic patch reverts cleanly, doing so breaks the
build for 32-bit PowerPC 8xx machines, which rely on the default
function definitions when the corresponding page-table levels are
folded:

| powerpc64-linux-ld: mm/vmalloc.o: in function `vunmap_pud_range':
| linux/mm/vmalloc.c:362: undefined reference to `pud_clear_huge'
| powerpc64-linux-ld: mm/vmalloc.o: in function `vunmap_pmd_range':
| linux/mm/vmalloc.c:337: undefined reference to `pmd_clear_huge'
| powerpc64-linux-ld: mm/vmalloc.o: in function `vunmap_pud_range':
| linux/mm/vmalloc.c:362: undefined reference to `pud_clear_huge'
| powerpc64-linux-ld: mm/vmalloc.o: in function `vunmap_pmd_range':
| linux/mm/vmalloc.c:337: undefined reference to `pmd_clear_huge'
| make: *** [Makefile:1177: vmlinux] Error 1

Although Christophe has kindly offered to look into the arm64 breakage,
he's on holiday for another 10 days and there isn't an obvious fix on
the arm64 side which allows us to continue using huge-vmap for affected
configurations.

In the interest of quickly getting things back to a working state as
they were in 5.13, revert the huge-vmap changes for PowerPC 8xx prior to
reverting the change which breaks arm64. We can then work on this
together for 5.15 once Christophe is back.

Instead of reverting this awaited functionnality, could you please just add the two following functions in arch/powerpc/mm/nohash/8xx.c :

int pud_clear_huge(pud_t *pud)
{
return 0;
}

int pmd_clear_huge(pmd_t *pmd)
{
return 0;
}

Thank you
Christophe
