mm, powerpc: use vma_kernel_pagesize() in vma_mmu_pagesize()
Patch series "mm, smaps: MMUPageSize for device-dax", v3.
Similar to commit 31383c6865a5 ("mm, hugetlbfs: introduce ->split() to
vm_operations_struct") here is another occasion where we want
special-case hugetlbfs/hstate enabling to also apply to device-dax.
This prompts the question what other hstate conversions we might do
beyond ->split() and ->pagesize(), but this appears to be the last of
the usages of hstate_vma() in generic/non-hugetlbfs specific code paths.
This patch (of 3):
The current powerpc definition of vma_mmu_pagesize() open codes looking
up the page size via hstate. It is identical to the generic
vma_kernel_pagesize() implementation.
Now, vma_kernel_pagesize() is growing support for determining the page
size of Device-DAX vmas in addition to the existing Hugetlbfs page size
determination.
Ideally, if the powerpc vma_mmu_pagesize() used vma_kernel_pagesize() it
would automatically benefit from any new vma-type support that is added
to vma_kernel_pagesize(). However, the powerpc vma_mmu_pagesize() is
prevented from calling vma_kernel_pagesize() due to a circular header
dependency that requires vma_mmu_pagesize() to be defined before
including <linux/hugetlb.h>.
Break this circular dependency by defining the default vma_mmu_pagesize()
as a __weak symbol to be overridden by the powerpc version.
