Address an Oops issues when performing test of loading XE GPU driver module after applying the GPU SVM and Xe SVM patch series[1] and the Dept patch series[2].
The issue occurs when loading the xe driver via modprobe [3], which adds a struct page for device memory via devm_memremap_pages(). When a process leads the addition of a struct page to vmemmap (e.g. hot-plug), the page table update for the newly added vmemmap-based virtual address is updated first in init_mm's page table and then synchronized later.
If the vmemmap-based virtual address is accessed through the process's page table before this sync, a page fault will occur.
This addresses the issue by synchronizing with the global pgds immediately after populating the init_mm's pgd. On platforms other than the x86 platform, there is currently no case of accessing the address before synchronizing the pgd, so applying the weak symbol to existing vmemmap_pgd_populate() and vmemmap_pgd_populate(), and adding a strong- symbol function to x86 so that only the x86 platform have this behavior.

This is a pure copy and paste of the generic function. I assume this is because the mm/sparse-vmemmap.c is static. But this kind of copying is really unfortunate.

I'd _really_ like to find another way to do this. We really don't want to add copy-and-paste versions of generic functions that we now need to maintain on the x86 side.
The _best_ way is probably to create some p*d_populate_kernel() helpers:
void pgd_populate_kernel(unsigned long addr, pgd_t *pgd, p4d_t *p4d) { pgd_populate(&init_mm, pgd, p4d); arch_sync_global_pgds(addr, addr+something); }
and move over most of the callers of:
p*d_populate(&init_mm, ...);
Because I suspect that'll fix your issue _and_ solve the generic class of issues where folks populate a kernel page table entry but forget to call sync_global_pgds().
