On 64-bit CPUs with no-execute support and non-snooping icache, such as
970 or POWER4, we have a software mechanism to ensure coherency of the
cache (using exec faults when needed).
This was broken due to a logic error when the code was rewritten
from assembly to C, previously the assembly code did:
BEGIN_FTR_SECTION
mr r4,r30
mr r5,r7
bl hash_page_do_lazy_icache
END_FTR_SECTION(CPU_FTR_NOEXECUTE|CPU_FTR_COHERENT_ICACHE, CPU_FTR_NOEXECUTE)
Which tests that:
(cpu_features & (NOEXECUTE | COHERENT_ICACHE)) == NOEXECUTE
Which says that the current cpu does have NOEXECUTE, but does not have
COHERENT_ICACHE.

Moving probe_machine() to after mmu init will cause the ppc_md
fields relative to the hash table management to be overwritten.
Since we have essentially disconnected the machine type from
the hash backend ops, finish the job by moving them to a different
structure.
The only callback that didn't quite fix is update_partition_table
since this is not specific to hash, so I moved it to a standalone
variable for now. We can revisit later if needed.

This helps to make following hash only pte bits easier.
We have kept _PAGE_CHG_MASK, _HPAGE_CHG_MASK and _PAGE_PROT_BITS as it
is in this patch eventhough they use hash specific bits. Using them in
radix as it is should be ok, because with radix we expect those bit
positions to be zero.
Only renames in this patch, no change in functionality.

_PAGE_PRIVILEGED means the page can be accessed only by the kernel. This
is done to keep pte bits similar to PowerISA 3.0 Radix PTE format. User
pages are now marked by clearing _PAGE_PRIVILEGED bit.
Previously we allowed the kernel to have a privileged page in the lower
address range (USER_REGION). With this patch such access is denied.
We also prevent a kernel access to a non-privileged page in higher
address range (ie, REGION_ID != 0).
Both the above access scenarios should never happen.

This splits the _PAGE_RW bit into _PAGE_READ and _PAGE_WRITE. It also
removes the dependency on _PAGE_USER for implying read only. Few things
to note here is that, we have read implied with write and execute
permission. Hence we should always find _PAGE_READ set on hash pte
fault.
We still can't switch PROT_NONE to !(_PAGE_RWX). Auto numa depends on
marking a prot none pte _PAGE_WRITE. (For more details look at
b191f9b106 "mm: numa: preserve PTE write permissions across a NUMA
hinting fault")

We have five locations in 64-bit hash MMU code that do a cmpxchg() of a
PTE. Currently doing it inline OK, but in a future patch we will be
converting the PTEs to __be64 in some configs. In that case we will need
casts at every cmpxchg() site in order to keep sparse happy.
So move the logic into a helper, this is a reasonably nice cleanup on
its own.

We don't need to update linux page table entry with _PAGE_HASHPTE early
in hash pte fault. A parallel pte update will loop via _PAGE_BUSY
and look at _PAGE_HASHPTE for a required hpte flush only if
_PAGE_BUSY is cleared. That ensures a pte update will wait for a
parallel hpte insert to finish before looking at _PAGE_HASHPTE bit.
To avoid further confusion drop setting _PAGE_HASHPTE in cmpxchg in __hash_page_4K.
