[ Upstream commit c67ddf59ac44adc60649730bf8347e37c516b001 ]
debug_pagealloc is a debug feature which clears the valid bit in page table
entry for freed pages to detect illegal accesses to freed memory.
For this feature to work, virtual mapping must have PAGE_SIZE resolution.
(No, we cannot map with huge pages and split them only when needed; because
pages can be allocated/freed in atomic context and page splitting cannot be
done in atomic context)
Force linear mapping to use small pages if debug_pagealloc is enabled.
Note that it is not necessary to force the entire linear mapping, but only
those that are given to memory allocator. Some parts of memory can keep
using huge page mapping (for example, kernel's executable code). But these
parts are minority, so keep it simple. This is just a debug feature, some
extra overhead should be acceptable.
