Steve Capper fa48e6f780 arm64: mm: Optimise tlb flush logic where we have >4K granule
The tlb maintainence functions: __cpu_flush_user_tlb_range and
__cpu_flush_kern_tlb_range do not take into consideration the page
granule when looping through the address range, and repeatedly flush
tlb entries for the same page when operating with 64K pages.

This patch re-works the logic s.t. we instead advance the loop by
 1 << (PAGE_SHIFT - 12), so avoid repeating ourselves.

Also the routines have been converted from assembler to static inline
functions to aid with legibility and potential compiler optimisations.

The isb() has been removed from flush_tlb_kernel_range(.) as it is
only needed when changing the execute permission of a mapping. If one
needs to set an area of the kernel as execute/non-execute an isb()
must be inserted after the call to flush_tlb_kernel_range.

Steve Capper af07484863 ARM64: mm: THP support.
Bring Transparent HugePage support to ARM. The size of a
transparent huge page depends on the normal page size. A
transparent huge page is always represented as a pmd.

If PAGE_SIZE is 4KB, THPs are 2MB.
If PAGE_SIZE is 64KB, THPs are 512MB.

Catalin Marinas 58d0ba578b arm64: TLB maintenance functionality
This patch adds the TLB maintenance functions. There is no distinction
made between the I and D TLBs. TLB maintenance operations are
automatically broadcast between CPUs in hardware. The inner-shareable
operations are always present, even on UP systems.

NOTE: Large part of this patch to be dropped once Peter Z's generic
mmu_gather patches are merged.
