Subject: mm/mmap: build protect protection_map[] with __P000
Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2022 10:46:05 +0530

Patch series "mm/mmap: Drop __SXXX/__PXXX macros from across platforms",
v6.

__SXXX/__PXXX macros are an unnecessary abstraction layer in creating the
generic protection_map[] array which is used for vm_get_page_prot().  This
abstraction layer can be avoided, if the platforms just define the array
protection_map[] for all possible vm_flags access permission combinations
and also export vm_get_page_prot() implementation.

This series drops __SXXX/__PXXX macros from across platforms in the tree. 
First it build protects generic protection_map[] array with '#ifdef
__P000' and moves it inside platforms which enable
ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT.  Later this build protects same array with
'#ifdef ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT' and moves inside remaining platforms
while enabling ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT.  This adds a new macro
DECLARE_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT defining the current generic vm_get_page_prot(),
in order for it to be reused on platforms that do not require custom
implementation.  Finally, ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT can just be dropped,
as all platforms now define and export vm_get_page_prot(), via looking up
a private and static protection_map[] array.  protection_map[] data type
has been changed as 'static const' on all platforms that do not change it
during boot.


This patch (of 26):

Build protect generic protection_map[] array with __P000, so that it can
be moved inside all the platforms one after the other.  Otherwise there
will be build failures during this process. 
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT cannot be used for this purpose as only
certain platforms enable this config now.
