Christophe Leroy f4b0b5a0f3 powerpc: Add set_memory_{p/np}() and remove set_memory_attr()
commit f222ab83df upstream.

set_memory_attr() was implemented by commit 4d1755b6a7 ("powerpc/mm:
implement set_memory_attr()") because the set_memory_xx() couldn't
be used at that time to modify memory "on the fly" as explained it
the commit.

But set_memory_attr() uses set_pte_at() which leads to warnings when
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is selected, because set_pte_at() is unexpected for
updating existing page table entries.

The check could be bypassed by using __set_pte_at() instead,
as it was the case before commit c988cfd38e ("powerpc/32:
use set_memory_attr()") but since commit 9f7853d760 ("powerpc/mm:
Fix set_memory_*() against concurrent accesses") it is now possible
to use set_memory_xx() functions to update page table entries
"on the fly" because the update is now atomic.

For DEBUG_PAGEALLOC we need to clear and set back _PAGE_PRESENT.
Add set_memory_np() and set_memory_p() for that.

Replace all uses of set_memory_attr() by the relevant set_memory_xx()
and remove set_memory_attr().

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
