David Dillow f7116e115a iommu/vt-d: Don't over-free page table directories
dma_pte_free_level() recurses down the IOMMU page tables and frees
directory pages that are entirely contained in the given PFN range.
Unfortunately, it incorrectly calculates the starting address covered
by the PTE under consideration, which can lead to it clearing an entry
that is still in use.

This occurs if we have a scatterlist with an entry that has a length
greater than 1026 MB and is aligned to 2 MB for both the IOMMU and
physical addresses. For example, if __domain_mapping() is asked to map a
two-entry scatterlist with 2 MB and 1028 MB segments to PFN 0xffff80000,
it will ask if dma_pte_free_pagetable() is asked to PFNs from
0xffff80200 to 0xffffc05ff, it will also incorrectly clear the PFNs from
0xffff80000 to 0xffff801ff because of this issue. The current code will
set level_pfn to 0xffff80200, and 0xffff80200-0xffffc01ff fits inside
the range being cleared. Properly setting the level_pfn for the current
level under consideration catches that this PTE is outside of the range
being cleared.

This patch also changes the value passed into dma_pte_free_level() when
it recurses. This only affects the first PTE of the range being cleared,
and is handled by the existing code that ensures we start our cursor no
lower than start_pfn.

This was found when using dma_map_sg() to map large chunks of contiguous
memory, which immediatedly led to faults on the first access of the
erroneously-deleted mappings.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
