Mostly recycling the commit log from adaba23c which fixed populate_pmd, but did not fix populate_pud. The same problem exists there. Stable trees reverted the following patch: Revert "x86/mm/pat: Ensure cpa->pfn only contains page frame numbers" This reverts commit 87e2bd89 which is commit edc3b912 upstream. but the L1TF patch 02ff2769 backported here x86/mm/pat: Make set_memory_np() L1TF safe commit 958f79b9 upstream set_memory_np() is used to mark kernel mappings not present, but it has it's own open coded mechanism which does not have the L1TF protection of inverting the address bits. assumed that cpa->pfn contains a PFN. With the above patch reverted it does not, which causes the PUD to be set to an incorrect address shifted by 12 bits, which can cause various failures. Convert the address to a PFN before passing it to pud_pfn(). This is a 4.4 stable only patch to fix the L1TF patches backport there.
