[PATCH] powerpc/mm: fix early initialization failure for MMUs with no hash table

From: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com>
Date: 2021-11-27 02:07:17
Also in: lkml, stable
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Linus Torvalds

The blamed patch attempted to do a trivial conversion of
map_mem_in_cams() by adding an extra "bool init" argument, but by
mistake, changed the way in which two call sites pass the other boolean
argument, "bool dry_run".

As a result, early_init_this_mmu() now calls map_mem_in_cams() with
dry_run=true, and setup_initial_memory_limit() calls with dry_run=false,
both of which are unintended changes.

This makes the kernel boot process hang here:

[    0.045211] e500 family performance monitor hardware support registered
[    0.051891] rcu: Hierarchical SRCU implementation.
[    0.057791] smp: Bringing up secondary CPUs ...

Issue noticed on a Freescale T1040.

Fixes: 52bda69ae8b5 ("powerpc/fsl_booke: Tell map_mem_in_cams() if init is done")
