From: Steve Capper <steve.capper@xxxxxxx>
Subject: arm64: hugetlb: refactor find_num_contig()

Patch series "Support for contiguous pte hugepages", v4.

This patchset updates the hugetlb code to fix issues arising from
contiguous pte hugepages (such as on arm64).  Compared to v3, This version
addresses a build failure on arm64 by including two cleanup patches. 
Other than the arm64 cleanups, the rest are generic code changes.  The
remaining arm64 support based on these patches will be posted separately. 
The patches are based on v4.12-rc2.  Previous related postings can be
found at [0], [1], [2], and [3].

The patches fall into three categories -

* Patch 1-2 - arm64 cleanups required to greatly simplify changing
  huge_pte_offset() prototype in Patch 5.

  Catalin, Will - are you happy for these patches to go via mm?

* Patches 3-4 address issues with gup

* Patches 5-8 relate to passing a size argument to hugepage helpers to
  disambiguate the size of the referred page. These changes are
  required to enable arch code to properly handle swap entries for
  contiguous pte hugepages.

  The changes to huge_pte_offset() (patch 5) touch multiple
  architectures but I've managed to minimise these changes for the
  other affected functions - huge_pte_clear() and set_huge_pte_at().

These patches gate the enabling of contiguous hugepages support on arm64
which has been requested for systems using !4k page granule.


This patch (of 8):

As we regularly check for contiguous pte's in the huge accessors, remove
this extra check from find_num_contig.
