MIPS: Enable IOREMAP_PROT config option for MIPS cpus
Allows the users of ptrace to access memory mapped by the ptraced process
using the same cache coherency attributes as the original process.
For example while using gdb with ioremap_prot() incorporated, both gdb and
the process being traced will have same cache coherency attributes.

Laurent Dufour 3010a5ea66 mm: introduce ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL
Currently the PTE special supports is turned on in per architecture
header files.  Most of the time, it is defined in
arch/*/include/asm/pgtable.h depending or not on some other per
architecture static definition.

This patch introduce a new configuration variable to manage this
directly in the Kconfig files.  It would later replace
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL.

Here notes for some architecture where the definition of
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is not obvious:

arm
 __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL which is currently defined in
arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable-3level.h which is included by
arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable.h when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is set.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if ARM_LPAE.

powerpc
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined in 2 files:
 - arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h
 - arch/powerpc/include/asm/pte-common.h
The first one is included if (PPC_BOOK3S & PPC64) while the second is
included in all the other cases.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL all the time.

sparc:
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined if defined(__sparc__) &&
defined(__arch64__) which are defined through the compiler in
sparc/Makefile if !SPARC32 which I assume to be if SPARC64.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if SPARC64

There is no functional change introduced by this patch.

Jonathan Corbet c7c527dd6e Revert "Documentation/features/vm: Remove arch support status file for 'pte_special'"
The removal of this file appears to have been premature; it's not a feature
enabled by Kconfig, but it's a arch-level feature regardless.  Put it back
for now until some happy future time when we decide how we really want to
document such features.

This reverts commit 2bef69a385.

Arnd Bergmann 1ea5afd42a Documentation: arch-support: remove obsolete architectures
A number of architecture ports are obsolete and getting dropped,
so we no longer want to track the respective features.

We already removed the lines for metag and mn10300, this does
the same edits for all the others.

For the remaining 21 architectures, this shows how many are known
to implement each given feature:

Ard Biesheuvel 324420bf91 arm64: add support for ioremap() block mappings
This wires up the existing generic huge-vmap feature, which allows
ioremap() to use PMD or PUD sized block mappings. It also adds support
to the unmap path for dealing with block mappings, which will allow us
to unmap the __init region using unmap_kernel_range() in a subsequent
patch.
