2018-01-02x86/cpu_entry_area: Add debugstore entries to cpu_entry_areaThomas Gleixner
commit 10043e02db7f8a4161f76434931051e7d797a5f6 upstream. The Intel PEBS/BTS debug store is a design trainwreck as it expects virtual addresses which must be visible in any execution context. So it is required to make these mappings visible to user space when kernel page table isolation is active. Provide enough room for the buffer mappings in the cpu_entry_area so the buffers are available in the user space visible page tables. At the point where the kernel side entry area is populated there is no buffer available yet, but the kernel PMD must be populated. To achieve this set the entries for these buffers to non present.

2017-12-29x86/cpu_entry_area: Move it out of the fixmapThomas Gleixner
commit 92a0f81d89571e3e8759366e050ee05cc545ef99 upstream. Put the cpu_entry_area into a separate P4D entry. The fixmap gets too big and 0-day already hit a case where the fixmap PTEs were cleared by cleanup_highmap(). Aside of that the fixmap API is a pain as it's all backwards.
