I don't know if this will fix this bug, but it's definitely a bugfix.
It was trashing random pages by overwriting them with pagetables...
Don't trash a large pmd's data when mapping physical memory.
This is a bugfix for "x86_64: adjust mapping of physical pagetables
to work with Xen".

This patch brings back limiting of the E820 map when a user-defined
E820 map is specified. While the behaviour of i386 (32 bit) was to limit
the E820 map (and /proc/iomem), the behaviour of x86-64 (64 bit) was not to
limit.
That patch limits the E820 map again for both x86 architectures.
Code was tested for compilation and booting on a 32 bit and 64 bit system.

It's never safe to call a swapgs pvop when the user stack is current -
it must be inline replaced. Rather than making a call, the
SWAPGS_UNSAFE_STACK pvop always just puts "swapgs" as a placeholder,
which must either be replaced inline or trap'n'emulated (somehow).

Don't conflate sysret and sysexit; they're different instructions with
different semantics, and may be in use at the same time (at least
within the same kernel, depending on whether its an Intel or AMD
system).
sysexit - just return to userspace, does no register restoration of
any kind; must explicitly atomically enable interrupts.
sysret - reloads flags from r11, so no need to explicitly enable
interrupts on 64-bit, responsible for restoring usermode %gs

This is needed when the kernel is running on RING3, such as under Xen.
x86_64 has a weird feature that makes it #GP on iret when SS is a null

This need to be tested on bare metal to make sure it doesn't cause any
problems. AMD specs say SS is always ignored (except on iret?).

This makes a few of changes to the construction of the initial
pagetables to work better with paravirt_ops/Xen. The main areas
are:
1. Support non-PSE mapping of memory, since Xen doesn't currently
allow 2M pages to be mapped in guests.
2. Make sure that the ioremap alias of all pages are dropped before
attaching the new page to the pagetable. This avoids having
writable aliases of pagetable pages.
3. Preserve existing pagetable entries, rather than overwriting. Its
possible that a fair amount of pagetable has already been constructed,
so reuse what's already in place rather than ignoring and overwriting it.
The algorithm relies on the invariant that any page which is part of
the kernel pagetable is itself mapped in the linear memory area. This
way, it can avoid using ioremap on a pagetable page.
The invariant holds because it maps memory from low to high addresses,
and also allocates memory from low to high. Each allocated page can
map at least 2M of address space, so the mapped area will always
progress much faster than the allocated area. It relies on the early
boot code mapping enough pages to get started.

Split x86_64_start_kernel() into two pieces:
The first essentially cleans up after head_64.S. It clears the
bss, zaps low identity mappings, sets up some early exception
handlers.
The second part preserves the boot data, reserves the kernel's
text/data/bss, pagetables and ramdisk, and then starts the kernel
proper.
This split is so that Xen can call the second part to do the set up it
needs done. It doesn't need any of the first part setups, because it
doesn't boot via head_64.S, and its redundant or actively damaging.

Set __PAGE_OFFSET to the most negative possible address +
16*PGDIR_SIZE. The gap is to allow a space for a hypervisor to fit.
The gap is more or less arbitrary, but it's what Xen needs.
When booting native, kernel/head_64.S has a set of compile-time
generated pagetables used at boot time. This patch removes their
absolutely hard-coded layout, and makes it parameterised on
__PAGE_OFFSET (and __START_KERNEL_map).

Jan Beulich points out that vmalloc_sync_all() assumes that the
kernel's pmd is always expected to be present in the pgd. The current
pgd construction code will add the pgd to the pgd_list before its pmds
have been pre-populated, thereby making it visible to
vmalloc_sync_all().
However, because pgd_prepopulate_pmd also does the allocation, it may
block and cannot be done under spinlock.
The solution is to preallocate the pmds out of the spinlock, then
populate them while holding the pgd_list lock.
This patch also pulls the pmd preallocation and mop-up functions out
to be common, assuming that the compiler will generate no code for
them when PREALLOCTED_PMDS is 0. Also, there's no need for pgd_ctor
to clear the pgd again, since it's allocated as a zeroed page.

vmalloc_sync_all() is only called from register_die_notifier and
alloc_vm_area. Neither is on any performance-critical paths, so
vmalloc_sync_all() itself is not on any hot paths.
Given that the optimisations in vmalloc_sync_all add a fair amount of
code and complexity, and are fairly hard to evaluate for correctness,
it's better to just remove them to simplify the code rather than worry
about its absolute performance.
