From: Hanjun Guo <hanjun.guo@xxxxxxxxxx> When we using iounmap() to free the 4K mapping, it just clear the PTEs but leave P4D/PUD/PMD unchanged, also will not free the memory of page tables. This will cause issues on ARM64 platform (not sure if other archs have the same issue) for this case: 1. ioremap a 4K size, valid page table will build, 2. iounmap it, pte0 will set to 0; 3. ioremap the same address with 2M size, pgd/pmd is unchanged, then set the a new value for pmd; 4. pte0 is leaked; 5. CPU may meet exception because the old pmd is still in TLB, which will lead to kernel panic. Fix it by skip setting up the huge I/O mappings when p4d/pud/pmd is zero.
