s390/mm: make the pxd_offset functions more robust
commit d1874a0 upstream. Change the way how pgd_offset, p4d_offset, pud_offset and pmd_offset walk the page tables. pgd_offset now always calculates the index for the top-level page table and adds it to the pgd, this is either a segment table offset for a 2-level setup, a region-3 offset for 3-levels, region-2 offset for 4-levels, or a region-1 offset for a 5-level setup. The other three functions p4d_offset, pud_offset and pmd_offset will only add the respective offset if they dereference the passed pointer. With the new way of walking the page tables a sequence like this from mm/gup.c now works: pgdp = pgd_offset(current->mm, addr); pgd = READ_ONCE(*pgdp); p4dp = p4d_offset(&pgd, addr); p4d = READ_ONCE(*p4dp); pudp = pud_offset(&p4d, addr); pud = READ_ONCE(*pudp); pmdp = pmd_offset(&pud, addr); pmd = READ_ONCE(*pmdp); Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
