Rather than flush the TLB entry when installing a new PTE to allow
the fast TLB reload to re-fill the TLB, just refill the TLB entry
when removing the old one.

Fault paths like do_read_fault will install a Linux pte with the young
bit clear. The CPU will fault again because the TLB has not been
updated, this time a valid pte exists so handle_pte_fault will just
set the young bit with ptep_set_access_flags, which flushes the TLB.
The TLB is flushed so the next attempt will go to the fast TLB handler
which loads the TLB with the new Linux pte. The access then proceeds.
This design is fragile to depend on the young bit being clear after
the initial Linux fault. A proposed core mm change to immediately set
the young bit upon such a fault, results in ptep_set_access_flags not
flushing the TLB because it finds no change to the pte. The spurious
fault fix path only flushes the TLB if the access was a store. If it
was a load, then this results in an infinite loop of page faults.
This change adds a TLB flush in update_mmu_cache, which removes that
TLB entry upon the first fault. This will cause the fast TLB handler
to load the new pte and avoid the Linux page fault entirely.

Thanks to commit 4b3ef9daa4 ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB
trunks"), after swapoff the address_space associated with the swap
device will be freed. So page_mapping() users which may touch the
address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space
from being freed during accessing.
The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in architecture
specific code may access the address_space of swap device for anonymous
pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function. But in some cases
there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from being swapoff,
for example,
CPU1 CPU2
__get_user_pages() swapoff()
flush_dcache_page()
mapping = page_mapping()
... exit_swap_address_space()
... kvfree(spaces)
mapping_mapped(mapping)
The address space may be accessed after being freed.
But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care
about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should be
used. The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all architectures
follows this too. They will check whether page_mapping() is NULL and
whether mapping_mapped() is true to determine whether to flush the
dcache immediately. And they will use interval tree (mapping->i_mmap)
to find all user space mappings. While mapping_mapped() and
mapping->i_mmap isn't used by anonymous pages in swap cache at all.
So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping()
is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL
otherwise. All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are
replaced with page_mapping_file().

Remove the end address checking for initda function. We need to invalidate
each address line for initda instruction, from start to end address.

Remove the end address checking for flushda function. We need to flush
each address line for flushda instruction, from start to end address.
This is because flushda instruction only flush the cache if tag and line
fields are matched.
Change to use ldwio instruction (bypass cache) to load the instruction
that causing trap. Our interest is the actual instruction that executed
by the processor, this should be uncached.
Note, EA address might be an userspace cached address.
