From: Juerg Haefliger <juerg.haefli...@canonical.com>

This patch adds support for XPFO which protects against 'ret2dir' kernel
attacks. The basic idea is to enforce exclusive ownership of page frames
by either the kernel or userspace, unless explicitly requested by the
kernel. Whenever a page destined for userspace is allocated, it is
unmapped from physmap (the kernel's page table). When such a page is
reclaimed from userspace, it is mapped back to physmap.

Additional fields in the page_ext struct are used for XPFO housekeeping,
specifically:
  - two flags to distinguish user vs. kernel pages and to tag unmapped
    pages.
  - a reference counter to balance kmap/kunmap operations.
  - a lock to serialize access to the XPFO fields.

This patch is based on the work of Vasileios P. Kemerlis et al. who
published their work in this paper:
  http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~vpk/papers/ret2dir.sec14.pdf

v6: * use flush_tlb_kernel_range() instead of __flush_tlb_one, so we flush
      the tlb entry on all CPUs when unmapping it in kunmap
    * handle lookup_page_ext()/lookup_xpfo() returning NULL
    * drop lots of BUG()s in favor of WARN()
    * don't disable irqs in xpfo_kmap/xpfo_kunmap, export
      __split_large_page so we can do our own alloc_pages(GFP_ATOMIC) to
      pass it

+         When enabled, every time a page frame is allocated to user space, it
+         is unmapped from the direct mapped RAM region in kernel space
+         (physmap). Similarly, when a page frame is freed/reclaimed, it is
+         mapped back to physmap.
+
+         There is a slight performance impact when this option is enabled.
