The .rodata section really should just be read only; the config option
is there to make breaking up the 2Mb page an option (so people whos machines
give more performance for the 2Mb case can opt to do so).
But when the page gets split anyway, this is no longer an issue, so
clean up the code and remove the ifdefs

This change broke recovery of exceptions in iret:
commit 72fe485854
Author: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com>
x86: replace privileged instructions with paravirt macros
The ENTRY(native_iret) macro adds alignment padding before the iretq
instruction, so "iret_label" no longer points exactly at the instruction.
It was sloppy to leave the old "iret_label" label behind when replacing
its nearby use. Removing it would have revealed the other use of the
label later in the file, and upon noticing that use, anyone exercising
the minimum of attention to detail expected of anyone touching this
subtle code would realize it needed to change as well.

In my revamp of the x86 ptrace code for setting register values,
I accidentally omitted a check that was there in the old code.
Allowing %cs to be 0 causes a bad crash in recovery from iret failure.

Introduce CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK. If disabled then the kernel is free
(but not obliged to) randomize the brk area.
Heap randomization breaks ancient binaries, so we keep COMPAT_BRK
enabled by default.
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
There is a check in sys_brk(), that tries to make sure that we do not
underflow the area that is dedicated to brk heap.
The check is however wrong, as it assumes that brk area starts immediately
after the end of the code (+bss), which is wrong for example in
environments with randomized brk start. The proper way is to check whether
the address is not below the start_brk address.

In very rare cases, on certain CPUs, we could end up in the spurious
fault handler and ignore a large pud/pmd mapping. The resulting pte
pointer points into the mapped physical space and dereferencing it
will fault recursively.
Make the code aware of large mappings and do the permission check
on the pmd/pud entry, when a large pud/pmd mapping is detected.

Teach the debug logging macro to differentiate between log levels based on the
type of debug level enabled specifically instead of a threshold-based one.
Thus, convert tape->debug_level to a bitmask that is written to over /proc.
Also,
- cleanup and simplify the debug macro thus removing a lot of code lines,
- get rid of unused debug levels,
- adjust the loglevel at several places where it was simply missing (e.g.
idetape_chrdev_open())
- move the tape ptr initialization up in idetape_chrdev_open() so that we can
use it in the debug_log macro earlier in the function.

The commit 139ddfcab5 ("ide: move handling of
I/O resources out of ide_probe_port()") changed the ordering of hwif->noprobe
check vs ide_hwif_request_regions() call (so that we now reserve I/O regions
before checking for hwif->noprobe). However ide-generic host driver depended
on hwif->noprobe to be set for skipping probing of empty ide_hwifs[] slots.
Fix it by passing only indexes of non-empty slots to ide_device_add_all()
from ide_generic_init().
