- Make LAM enablement safe vs. kernel threads using a process mm
temporarily as switching back to the process would not update CR3 and
therefore not enable LAM causing faults in user space when using tagged
pointers. Cure it by synchronizing LAM enablement via IPIs to all CPUs
which use the related mm.
- Cure a LAM harmless inconsistency between CR3 and the state during
context switch. It's both confusing and prone to lead to real bugs
- Handle alt stack handling for threads which run with a non-zero
protection key. The non-zero key prevents the kernel to access the
alternate stack. Cure it by temporarily enabling all protection keys for
the alternate stack setup/restore operations.
- Provide a EFI config table identity mapping for kexec kernel to prevent
kexec fails because the new kernel cannot access the config table array
- Use GB pages only when a full GB is mapped in the identity map as
otherwise the CPU can speculate into reserved areas after the end of
memory which causes malfunction on UV systems.
- Remove the noisy and pointless SRAT table dump during boot
- Use is_ioremap_addr() for iounmap() address range checks instead of
high_memory. is_ioremap_addr() is more precise.
