This is done in order that a split can be performed without needing to allocate additional memory. The freeing occurs in zap_deposited_table() and is done directly without any delay via pte_free(). This is currently not a problem as existing page table walks are protected by the mmap or anon rmap lock. However this becomes problematic in a future where RCU-only page table walkers exist, as there is nothing to prevent a page table walker that started the walk prior to collapse having its PTE table freed underneath it. Commit 13cf577e6b66 ("mm/pgtable: add pte_free_defer() for pgtable as page") already provides us the mechanism by which to solve this - pte_free_defer(). Therefore, as a prerequisite to a future commit which will permit fully RCU page table walks, update zap_deposited_table() to use pte_free_defer() rather than pte_free(). Note that the IPI sync in collapse_huge_page() is still required to ensure refcount correctness against a GUP-fast operation. This is because GUP-fast might increment refcount, but __collapse_huge_page_isolate() determines whether it is safe to proceed by checking folio_ref_count() against folio_expected_ref_count(), so the two must be mutually excluded.

This is meaningful as tlb_remove_ptdesc() allows for RCU page table freeing if CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is specified. The csky, hexagon, nios2, openrisc, sh (except X2) and m68k-sun3 architectures all have 2 levels of page tables, so the only page tables ever freed by mmu_gather are PTEs, so this update suffices to ensure that every page table freed by the mmu_gather mechanism is freed under RCU. Therefore, update all of these architectures to select CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE. This forms part of an overall effort to switch every architecture to this mode.

Commit 69be3fb111e7 ("riscv: enable MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE for SMP && MMU") enabled CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE for CONFIG_SMP, CONFIG_MMU riscv builds. This is expressly for the safety of GUP-fast walkers (CONFIG_HAVE_GUP_FAST is enabled if CONFIG_MMU is enabled). Naturally a single core system does not encounter issues with software page table walkers being correctly synchronised across cores, as there is only a single core. However, CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU is still available on a riscv UP system, so for a future RCU-only page table walker, this guarantee is required to prevent concurrent page table teardown. All page table freeing is already done via tlb_remove_ptdesc() so the conditions of CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE are already met. This forms part of an overall effort to switch every architecture to this mode.

Regardless of whether CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is enabled or not, the same page table freeing functions __pte_free_tlb() and __pmd_free_tlb() are used. Non-LPAE PMD page tables are folded into the PGD and freed by pgd_free() (PGD freeing is not part of mmu_gather page table freeing in any case), so this is a noop in this case. Since commit 358d1c39c82a ("arm: convert various functions to use ptdescs") both LPAE and non-LPAE PTE page table freeing uses tlb_remove_ptdesc(). Thus all page table freeing is performed under RCU with CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE enabled for LPAE and non-LPAE and thus it need not be gated on LPAE. A UP arm system can set CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU, so a future pure RCU page table walker requires MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE to be enabled on UP as well, even if concurrent GUP fast is not possible there. Therefore, it is both safe and desirable to set CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE for all MMU arm architectures (nommu does not perform mmu_gather operations). This forms part of an overall effort to switch every architecture to this mode.

The use of tlb_remove_ptdesc() is required for CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE to correctly free page tables under RCU, so simply update these architectures to use these functions. Since none of the architectures share page tables or do anything unusual, nothing complicated is required here. Therefore this is simply a mechanical change - convert __pud_free_tlb(), __pmd_free_tlb() and __pte_free_tlb() to use tlb_remove_ptdesc() as required. At the point this is in place, all mmu_gather page table freeing is performed under RCU, and thus MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is selected for each architecture. Note that CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is dependent on CONFIG_MMU for xtensa to reflect the fact that nommu does not implement page table gathering. This forms part of an overall effort to switch every architecture to this mode.

Naturally, UP systems do not have to worry about concurrent GUP fast operations. However, CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU is also available even on a UP system, so a future pure-RCU page table walker requires MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE to be enabled on UP, even if concurrent GUP fast is not possible there. To enable future pure-RCU page table walkers, enable MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE unconditionally. With this change, it is no longer necessary to have !CONFIG_SMP pgtable_free_tlb(), so also remove this now dead code. This forms part of an overall effort to switch every architecture to this mode.

Update its __pte_free_tlb() function to use tlb_remove_ptdesc() in order that, with CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE, page tables are freed under RCU. The page tables occupy a page each and have no odd semantics, so this change suffices to allow enabling of CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE for m68k-coldfire, so do so. This forms part of an overall effort to switch every architecture to this mode.

All other sh variants are fine as commit e3ecf7c7d082 ("mm: pgtable: convert some architectures to use tlb_remove_ptdesc()") already converted page table freeing to use tlb_remove_ptdesc(), which does so after an RCU grace period when CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is specified. Resolve this issue by firstly specifying CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE for sh-X2, so the arch can provide its own __tlb_remove_table() implementation (called after the RCU grace period). Then, convert __pmd_free_tlb() to tag the pointer to the PMD, and have __tlb_remove_table() check this tag to determine whether to free via the slab or to use pagetable_dtor_free(). This follows the pattern used by sparc64 as implemented in commit 4a0100f7546f ("sparc64: use RCU page table freeing"). Previously __pmd_free_tlb() freed PMD page tables immediately, before any TLB flush IPI. This seems to be a pre-existing bug, which this change also resolves. CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE is only specified for sh-X2, as setting it disables CONFIG_PT_RECLAIM and causes __tlb_remove_table_one() to call tlb_remove_table_sync_rcu() and synchronize_rcu() in turn, and this is not necessary for other sh variants. This forms part of an overall effort to switch every architecture to this mode.

Here, custom table removal logic is required, so CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE is enabled for m68k-motorola. Firstly as part of this change, the page table level must be communicated to the underlying __tlb_remove_table() implementation. Take advantage of the fact that page tables are aligned by more than enough to permit setting TABLE_PTE or TABLE_PMD in the low bits of the pointer, and store this there. Then update __pte_free_tlb() and __pmd_free_tlb() to pass this through, then have __tlb_remove_table() decode this and pass it to free_pointer_table(). The page table freeing is performed via call_rcu(), so free_pointer_table() now will be invoked from softirq context, and as such may be re-entrant. Introduce an irq save/restore spinlock to handle this, and hold it over the time a given ptable entry is being referenced in both get_pointer_table() and free_pointer_table(). In order to make things a little easier in this respect, separate out the logic for adding a new ptable entry into add_pointer_table() and only hold the lock during ptable entry insertion in this case. Note that original list_add_tail(new, dp) added new prior to dp, which is ptable_list[type].next, i.e. after ptable_list[type]. The equivalent therefore is list_add(new, &ptable_list[type]), which adds new after ptable_list[type], only without needing to make reference to dp. Note that, as m68k-motorola specifies CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE, it does not enable CONFIG_PT_RECLAIM. This isn't meaningfully impactful.

To support this, a custom __tlb_remove_table() function is required, as specified by CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE. This allows __pte_free_tlb() and __pmd_free_tlb() to specify which page table level is being freed, which is transmitted to __tlb_remove_table() through setting the lowest bit of the page table to 1 for a PMD and 0 for a PTE (the page tables are 256-byte aligned so this is safe to do). Next, since the page table freeing is done via RCU callback, and thus might be executed in softirq context, update the spin locks to IRQ save/restore. Then, in __tlb_remove_table(), figure out whether to free a PMD page table via free_pmd_fast() or a PTE via the newly introduced __pte_free() function, using the lower bit encoded in __pte_free_tlb() or __pmd_free_tlb() to determine which to call. As part of this change use this spin lock rather than mm->page_table_lock for all shared page table exclusion, as RCU freeing means that page tables can be freed from soft IRQ context so both don't have an mm and also mm->page_table_lock is not IRQ-safe. Note that the specification of CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE disables CONFIG_PT_RECLAIM for sparc32, which mirrors sparc64. This forms part of an overall effort to switch every architecture to this mode, and with it complete, means every architecture now supports CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE.

Therefore remove it, and remove all the dead code that existed for !CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE architectures previously. Additionally, CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE is no longer necessary, as all architectures instead use CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE when a custom __tlb_remove_table() is required, so remove this too. A number of architectures only enabled CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE if CONFIG_MMU was set, however the mmu_gather logic only actually does something meaningful if CONFIG_MMU is set (mmu_gather.c is only compiled in this case, for instance). As a result, there's no need to gate any of this logic on CONFIG_MMU explicitly. CONFIG_PT_RECLAIM however does have a strict dependency on CONFIG_MMU, so make this dependency explicit. Additionally, correct comments to remove references to non-RCU page table gathering and make it clear that this is not 'semi-RCU', nor has it been since commit 1fb3d8c20bfa ("mm/mmu_gather: replace IPI with synchronize_rcu() when batch allocation fails"). With this change in place the kernel policy is now that all page tables are freed after an RCU grace period, and thus it is now safe to unconditionally perform page table walks under RCU, safe in the knowledge that page tables will not be freed underneath the walker. This is all that is guaranteed, however, so naturally it is still incumbent upon page table walkers to ensure that the page table entries are as expected.

It is however unsafe for writers to do so, as they must obtain an appropriate lock to do so safely. Update the pte_offset_map_lock()'s comment block to reflect this. Similarly update the process addresses documentation.
