Earlier, vmap_area_list is exported to vmcoreinfo so that makedumpfile get
the base address of vmalloc area. Now, vmap_area_list is empty, so export
VMALLOC_START to vmcoreinfo instead, and remove vmap_area_list.

commit 23baf831a3 ("mm, treewide: redefine MAX_ORDER sanely") has
changed the definition of MAX_ORDER to be inclusive. This has caused
issues with code that was not yet upstream and depended on the previous
definition.
To draw attention to the altered meaning of the define, rename MAX_ORDER
to MAX_PAGE_ORDER.

NR_PAGE_ORDERS defines the number of page orders supported by the page
allocator, ranging from 0 to MAX_ORDER, MAX_ORDER + 1 in total.
NR_PAGE_ORDERS assists in defining arrays of page orders and allows for
more natural iteration over them.

We can use a bit in page[1].flags to indicate that this folio belongs to
hugetlb instead of using a value in page[1].dtors. That lets
folio_test_hugetlb() become an inline function like it should be. We can
also get rid of NULL_COMPOUND_DTOR.

The following interrelated ranges are needed by the kdump crash tool:

VMALLOC_START ~ VMALLOC_END,
VMEMMAP_START ~ VMEMMAP_END
Since these values change from time to time, it is preferable to export
them via vmcoreinfo than to change the crash's code frequently.

TCR_EL1.TxSZ, which controls the VA space size, is configured by a
single kernel image to support either 48-bit or 52-bit VA space.
If the ARMv8.2-LVA optional feature is present and we are running
with a 64KB page size, then it is possible to use 52-bits of address
space for both userspace and kernel addresses. However, any kernel
binary that supports 52-bit must also be able to fall back to 48-bit
at early boot time if the hardware feature is not present.
Since TCR_EL1.T1SZ indicates the size of the memory region addressed by
TTBR1_EL1, export the same in vmcoreinfo. User-space utilities like
makedumpfile and crash-utility need to read this value from vmcoreinfo
for determining if a virtual address lies in the linear map range.
While at it also add documentation for TCR_EL1.T1SZ variable being
added to vmcoreinfo.
It indicates the size offset of the memory region addressed by
TTBR1_EL1.

[catalin.marinas@arm.com: removed vabits_actual from the commit log]
Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
Right now user-space tools like 'makedumpfile' and 'crash' need to rely
on a best-guess method of determining value of 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS'
supported by underlying kernel.
This value is used in user-space code to calculate the bit-space
required to store a section for SPARESMEM (similar to the existing
calculation method used in the kernel implementation):
#define SECTIONS_SHIFT (MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS - SECTION_SIZE_BITS)
Now, regressions have been reported in user-space utilities
like 'makedumpfile' and 'crash' on arm64, with the recently added
kernel support for 52-bit physical address space, as there is
no clear method of determining this value in user-space
(other than reading kernel CONFIG flags).
As per suggestion from makedumpfile maintainer (Kazu), it makes more
sense to append 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' to vmcoreinfo in the core code itself
rather than in arch-specific code, so that the user-space code for other
archs can also benefit from this addition to the vmcoreinfo and use it
as a standard way of determining 'SECTIONS_SHIFT' value in user-land.
A reference 'makedumpfile' implementation which reads the
'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' value from vmcoreinfo in a arch-independent fashion
is available here:
While at it also update vmcoreinfo documentation for 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS'
variable being added to vmcoreinfo.
'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' defines the maximum supported physical address
space memory.
