Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
"One fix for a regression introduced by our 32-bit KASAN support, which
broke booting on machines with "bootx" early debugging enabled.
A fix for a bug which broke kexec on 32-bit, introduced by changes to
the 32-bit STRICT_KERNEL_RWX support in v5.1.
Finally two fixes going to stable for our THP split/collapse handling,
discovered by Nick. The first fixes random crashes and/or corruption
in guests under sufficient load.
Thanks to: Nicholas Piggin, Christophe Leroy, Aaro Koskinen, Mathieu
Malaterre"

powerpc/64s: Fix THP PMD collapse serialisation
powerpc: Fix kexec failure on book3s/32
Commit 1b2443a547 ("powerpc/book3s64: Avoid multiple endian
conversion in pte helpers") changed the actual bitwise tests in
pte_access_permitted by using pte_write() and pte_present() helpers
rather than raw bitwise testing _PAGE_WRITE and _PAGE_PRESENT bits.
The pte_present() change now returns true for PTEs which are
!_PAGE_PRESENT and _PAGE_INVALID, which is the combination used by
pmdp_invalidate() to synchronize access from lock-free lookups.
pte_access_permitted() is used by pmd_access_permitted(), so allowing
GUP lock free access to proceed with such PTEs breaks this
synchronisation.
This bug has been observed on a host using the hash page table MMU,
with random crashes and corruption in guests, usually together with
bad PMD messages in the host.
Fix this by adding an explicit check in pmd_access_permitted(), and
documenting the condition explicitly.
The pte_write() change should be okay, and would prevent GUP from
falling back to the slow path when encountering savedwrite PTEs, which
matches what x86 (that does not implement savedwrite) does.
