[PATCH V3 00/30] mm/mmap: Drop protection_map[] and platform's __SXXX/__PXXX requirements

protection_map[] is an array based construct that translates given vm_flags
combination. This array contains page protection map, which is populated by
the platform via [__S000 .. __S111] and [__P000 .. __P111] exported macros.
Primary usage for protection_map[] is for vm_get_page_prot(), which is used
to determine page protection value for a given vm_flags. vm_get_page_prot()
implementation, could again call platform overrides arch_vm_get_page_prot()
and arch_filter_pgprot(). Some platforms override protection_map[] that was
originally built with __SXXX/__PXXX with different runtime values.

Currently there are multiple layers of abstraction i.e __SXXX/__PXXX macros
, protection_map[], arch_vm_get_page_prot() and arch_filter_pgprot() built
between the platform and generic MM, finally defining vm_get_page_prot().

Hence this series proposes to drop all these abstraction levels and instead
just move the responsibility of defining vm_get_page_prot() to the platform
itself making it clean and simple.

This first introduces ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT which enables the platforms
to define custom vm_get_page_prot(). This starts converting platforms that
either change protection_map[] or define the overrides arch_filter_pgprot()
or arch_vm_get_page_prot() which enables for those constructs to be dropped
off completely. This series then converts remaining platforms which enables
for __SXXX/__PXXX constructs to be dropped off completely. Finally it drops
the generic vm_get_page_prot() and then ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT as every
platform now defines their own vm_get_page_prot().

The series has been inspired from an earlier discuss with Christoph Hellwig

This series applies on 5.17-rc6 after the following patch.

This series has been cross built for multiple platforms.
