Commit Message

Currently vmf_insert_pfn_pmd only works with devmap
and BUG_ON otherwise. Add support for handling
page special when pfn_t has it marked with PFN_SPECIAL.

Usage of page special aren't expected to do GUP
hence return no pages on gup_huge_pmd() much like how
it is done for ptes on gup_pte_range().

This allows a DAX driver to handle 2M hugepages without
struct pages.

The ifdef/endif don't make much sense here; x86 does have PTE_SPECIAL,
and this is an x86 header file, so that can be assumed.

Here, you're calling it unconditionally.  I think you need a pmd_special()
conditionally defined in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h

+#ifndef CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL
+static inline bool pmd_special(pmd_t pmd)
+{
+	return false;
+}
+#endif

(oh, and plese use bool instead of int; I know that's different from
pte_special(), but pte_special() predates bool and nobody's done the work
to convert it yet)

Again, we'll need a generic one.

Should that rather be ...

+	BUG_ON(!(vma->vm_flags & (VM_PFNMAP|VM_MIXEDMAP)) &&
+			!pfn_t_devmap(pfn) && !pfn_t_special(pfn));

I also think this comment needs adjusting:

        /*
         * There is no pmd_special() but there may be special pmds, e.g.
         * in a direct-access (dax) mapping, so let's just replicate the

         */

Will add it.

Yes. That is indeed a mistake I had already fixed for v2. Patch 3 does the exact
same, so as the other comments you mentioned here too so will adjust that
accordingly.

I'll replace with what vm_normal_page() equivalent has:

	/* !CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL case follows: */
