[PATCH v4 00/10] Convert powerpc to default topdown mmap layout

Rebased on top of Nic's series "powerpc: Make hash MMU code build configurable" in today's powerpc/merge-test on github

This series converts powerpc to default topdown mmap layout.

powerpc requires its own arch_get_unmapped_area() only when
slices are needed, which is only for book3s/64. First part of
the series moves slices into book3s/64 specific directories
and cleans up other subarchitectures.

Last part converts to default topdown mmap layout.

A small modification is done to core mm to allow
powerpc to still provide its own arch_randomize_brk()

Another modification is done to core mm to allow powerpc
to use generic versions of get_unmapped_area functions for Radix
while still providing its own implementation for Hash, the
selection between Radix and Hash being doing at runtime.

Changes in v4:
- Move arch_randomize_brk() simplification out of this series
- Add a change to core mm to enable using generic implementation
while providing arch specific one at the same time.
- Reworked radix get_unmapped_area to use generic implementation
- Rebase on top of Nic's series v6

Changes in v3:
- Fixed missing <linux/elf-randomize.h> in last patch
- Added a patch to move SZ_1T out of drivers/pci/controller/pci-xgene.c

Changes in v2:
- Moved patch 4 before patch 2
- Make generic arch_randomize_brk() __weak
- Added patch 9

Christophe Leroy (10):
  mm: Allow arch specific arch_randomize_brk() with
    CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_TOPDOWN_MMAP_LAYOUT
  mm, hugetlbfs: Allow an arch to always use generic versions of
    get_unmapped_area functions
  powerpc/mm: Move vma_mmu_pagesize()
  powerpc/mm: Make slice specific to book3s/64
  powerpc/mm: Remove CONFIG_PPC_MM_SLICES
  powerpc/mm: Use generic_get_unmapped_area() and call it from
    arch_get_unmapped_area()
  powerpc/mm: Use generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area()
  powerpc/mm: Move get_unmapped_area functions to slice.c
  powerpc/mm: Convert to default topdown mmap layout
  powerpc/mm: Properly randomise mmap with slices
