Because Xen doesn't support PSE mappings in guests, all code which
assumed the presence of PSE has been changed to fall back to smaller
mappings if necessary. As a result, PSE is optional rather than
required (though still used whereever possible).

x86, 64-bit: adjust mapping of physical pagetables to work with Xen
This makes a few of changes to the construction of the initial
pagetables to work better with paravirt_ops/Xen. The main areas
are:
1. Support non-PSE mapping of memory, since Xen doesn't currently
allow 2M pages to be mapped in guests.
2. Make sure that the ioremap alias of all pages are dropped before
attaching the new page to the pagetable. This avoids having
writable aliases of pagetable pages.
3. Preserve existing pagetable entries, rather than overwriting. Its
possible that a fair amount of pagetable has already been constructed,
so reuse what's already in place rather than ignoring and overwriting it.
The algorithm relies on the invariant that any page which is part of
the kernel pagetable is itself mapped in the linear memory area. This
way, it can avoid using ioremap on a pagetable page.
The invariant holds because it maps memory from low to high addresses,
and also allocates memory from low to high. Each allocated page can
map at least 2M of address space, so the mapped area will always
progress much faster than the allocated area. It relies on the early
boot code mapping enough pages to get started.

The first essentially cleans up after head_64.S. It clears the
bss, zaps low identity mappings, sets up some early exception
handlers.
The second part preserves the boot data, reserves the kernel's
text/data/bss, pagetables and ramdisk, and then starts the kernel
proper.
This split is so that Xen can call the second part to do the set up it
needs done. It doesn't need any of the first part setups, because it
doesn't boot via head_64.S, and its redundant or actively damaging.

paravirt/x86, 64-bit: move __PAGE_OFFSET to leave a space for hypervisor
Set __PAGE_OFFSET to the most negative possible address +
16*PGDIR_SIZE. The gap is to allow a space for a hypervisor to fit.
The gap is more or less arbitrary, but it's what Xen needs.
When booting native, kernel/head_64.S has a set of compile-time
generated pagetables used at boot time. This patch removes their
absolutely hard-coded layout, and makes it parameterised on
__PAGE_OFFSET (and __START_KERNEL_map).

Jan Beulich points out that vmalloc_sync_all() assumes that the
kernel's pmd is always expected to be present in the pgd. The current
pgd construction code will add the pgd to the pgd_list before its pmds
have been pre-populated, thereby making it visible to
vmalloc_sync_all().
However, because pgd_prepopulate_pmd also does the allocation, it may
block and cannot be done under spinlock.
The solution is to preallocate the pmds out of the spinlock, then
populate them while holding the pgd_list lock.
This patch also pulls the pmd preallocation and mop-up functions out
to be common, assuming that the compiler will generate no code for
them when PREALLOCTED_PMDS is 0. Also, there's no need for pgd_ctor
to clear the pgd again, since it's allocated as a zeroed page.

vmalloc_sync_all() is only called from register_die_notifier and
alloc_vm_area. Neither is on any performance-critical paths, so
vmalloc_sync_all() itself is not on any hot paths.
Given that the optimisations in vmalloc_sync_all add a fair amount of
code and complexity, and are fairly hard to evaluate for correctness,
it's better to just remove them to simplify the code rather than worry
about its absolute performance.
