powerpc/64/mm: implement page mapping percpu first chunk allocator
Implement page mapping percpu first chunk allocator as a fallback to the embedding allocator. With 4K hash translation we limit our page table range to 64TB and commit: 0034d395 ("powerpc/mm/hash64: Map all the kernel regions in the same 0xc range") moved all kernel mapping to that 64TB range. In-order to support sparse memory layout we need to increase our linear mapping space and reduce other mappings. With such a layout percpu embedded first chunk allocator will fail because of small vmalloc range. Add a fallback to page mapping percpu first chunk allocator for such failures. The below dmesg output can be observed in such case. percpu: max_distance=0x1ffffef00000 too large for vmalloc space 0x10000000000 PERCPU: auto allocator failed (-22), falling back to page size percpu: 40 4K pages/cpu s148816 r0 d15024 Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200608070904.387440-2-aneesh.kumar@linux.ibm.com
