I've tried to split it to several smaller ones, but I couldn't find a way to do it without breaking bisectability.

Yep, the idea is to remove asm-generic/pgtable-nop4d-hack.h and asm-generic/5level-fixup.h. And, there is a small benefit for powerpc as kernel size is reduced a bit, e.g. for pseries_defconfig: $ size old/vmlinux new/vmlinux text data bss dec hex filename 13702955 5961022 1517520 21181497 1433439 old/vmlinux 13702507 5961006 1517520 21181033 1433269 new/vmlinux > cheers > > > On Mon, Dec 09, 2019 at 05:09:08PM +0200, Mike Rapoport wrote: > >> From: Mike Rapoport <rppt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > >> > >> Implement primitives necessary for the 4th level folding, add walks of p4d > >> level where appropriate and replace 5level-fixup.h with pgtable-nop4d.h. > >> > >> Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport <rppt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > >> --- > >> arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/32/pgtable.h | 1 - > >> arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/hash.h | 4 +- > >> arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgalloc.h | 4 +- > >> arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h | 58 ++++++++++-------- > >> arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/radix.h | 6 +- > >> arch/powerpc/include/asm/nohash/32/pgtable.h | 1 - > >> arch/powerpc/include/asm/nohash/64/pgalloc.h | 2 +- > >> .../include/asm/nohash/64/pgtable-4k.h | 32 +++++----- > >> arch/powerpc/include/asm/nohash/64/pgtable.h | 6 +- > >> arch/powerpc/include/asm/pgtable.h | 8 +++ > >> arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_64_mmu_radix.c | 59 ++++++++++++++++--- > >> arch/powerpc/lib/code-patching.c | 7 ++- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/book3s32/mmu.c | 2 +- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/book3s32/tlb.c | 4 +- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/hash_pgtable.c | 4 +- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/radix_pgtable.c | 19 ++++-- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/book3s64/subpage_prot.c | 6 +- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c | 28 +++++---- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/kasan/kasan_init_32.c | 8 +-- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/mem.c | 4 +- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/nohash/40x.c | 4 +- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/nohash/book3e_pgtable.c | 15 +++-- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c | 25 +++++++- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable_32.c | 28 +++++---- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable_64.c | 10 ++-- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/ptdump/hashpagetable.c | 20 ++++++- > >> arch/powerpc/mm/ptdump/ptdump.c | 22 ++++++- > >> arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c | 17 +++++- > >> 28 files changed, 284 insertions(+), 120 deletions(-) > -- Sincerely yours, Mike.
