lib/decompressors: fix "no limit" output buffer length

When decompressing into memory, the output buffer length is set to some
arbitrarily high value (0x7fffffff) to indicate the output is, virtually,
unlimited in size.

The problem with this is that some platforms have their physical memory at
high physical addresses (0x80000000 or more), and that the output buffer
address and its "unlimited" length cannot be added without overflowing.
An example of this can be found in inflate_fast():

/* next_out is the output buffer address */
out = strm->next_out - OFF;
/* avail_out is the output buffer size. end will overflow if the output
 * address is >= 0x80000104 */
end = out + (strm->avail_out - 257);

This has huge consequences on the performance of kernel decompression,
since the following exit condition of inflate_fast() will be always true:

} while (in < last && out < end);

Indeed, "end" has overflowed and is now always lower than "out".  As a
result, inflate_fast() will return after processing one single byte of
input data, and will thus need to be called an unreasonably high number of
times.  This probably went unnoticed because kernel decompression is fast
enough even with this issue.

Nonetheless, adjusting the output buffer length in such a way that the
above pointer arithmetic never overflows results in a kernel decompression
that is about 3 times faster on affected machines.

The ARM assembler library functions use a macro called "push" that
along with a macro called "pull" is used to shift bytes around in a
word in an endian-independent way. However, the modern unified
ARM assembler syntax also defines the instruction "push" to push
data onto the stack, which has specific encodings in the Thumb2
instruction set. For prevent possible conflicts going forward, and
to allow the use of the more transparent "push" instruction along
with the modern unified assembler syntax, this patch renames all
occurrences of the "push" macro to "pushbits", as well as renaming
the macro argument, when also called "push", to "pushshift".

For consistency, the macro called "pull" with its argument name
"pull" are also renamed to "pullbits" and "pullshift", respectively.

[PATCH 2/3] Optimize copy_page for modern ARM platforms

The existing implementation of copy_page for ARM appears to be
optimized for older platforms. Benchmark testing in a sandbox
environment shows suboptimal performance on modern platforms
like armv6 and armv7, with speed-ups ranging from 10% (Cortex A8)
to 80% (armv6 used in Raspberry Pi) being achievable.

This commit optimizes copy_page and introduces the new compile-time
constant PREFETCH_DISTANCE, defined in cache.h, which when
multiplied by L1_CACHE_BYTES is equal to the offset used for
prefetches performed with the PLD instruction. For platforms where
L1_CACHE_BYTES is 32 (armv5 and armv6), copy_page processes 32 bytes
at a time while doing one prefetch per iteration, while for armv7
(with L1_CACHE_BYTES equal to 64), 64 bytes are processed at at time
with one prefetch per iteration. When no preload instruction is
available (platforms earlier than armv5), no preload instructions
are generated and 32 bytes are processed at at time.

To facilitate specifying instructions for architectures with no
preload instruction, the NO_PLD macro is added to assembler.h,
augmenting the PLD macro.

[PATCH 3/3] Optimize ARM memset and memzero functions

The ARM memset and memzero functions are optimized with lower overhead
for small requests, generation of more 16-bit Thumb2 instructions when
compiled in Thumb2 mode, and configurable destination alignment before
the main block-copying loop.

The new compile-time constant MEMSET_WRITE_ALIGN_BYTES is introduced
in assembler.h, to augment the CALGN macro that previously regulated
32-byte write alignment but was only used on the Feroceon platform.
MEMSET_WRITE_ALIGN_BYTES can have values of 0 (no write alignment),
8, or 32. Apart from Feroceon, memset write alignment of 32 bytes
appears to benefit the armv6 platform, while the armv7 platform
seems benefit from alignment to 8 bytes for memset/memzero.

The CALGN macro is renamed to MEMSET_CALGN for memset and memzero; the
original CALGN macro is reserved for the memcpy family of functions
(memcpy, copy_from_user, copy_to_user) currently implemented in
copy_template.S, and the associated compile time constant
WRITE_ALIGN_BYTES defines the write alignment for memcpy-related
functions that will be utilized in subsequent contributions. Because
the current CALGN implementation in copy_template.S only implements
32-byte write alignment and is broken on Thumb2, it is only enabled
when WRITE_ALIGN_BYTES is equal to 32 and Thumb2 mode is not enabled.

Finally, memset and memzero now include a directive to enable unified
ARM assembler syntax.

[PATCH 1/2] mm: prevent to add a page to swap if may_writepage is unset

This patch prevents to add a page to swap cache unnecessary when
may_writepage is unset so anoymous lru list isn't full of
Dirty/Swapcache page. So VM can isolate pages from anon lru list,
which ends up setting may_writepage to 1 and could swap out
anon lru pages. When OOM triggers, I confirmed swap space was full.

[PATCH 2/2] mm: forcely swapout when we are out of page cache

In many occasions VM tries to avoid I/O for saving the power.
But if there isn't reclaimable memory without I/O, we should do I/O
to prevent unnecessary OOM kill although we sacrifice power.

One of example is that we are out of page cache. Remained one is
only anonymous pages, for swapping out, we needs may_writepage = 1.
