Subject: [PATCH] mm: Remove broken pfn_to_virt() on arch csky/hexagon/openrisc

Remove the broken pfn_to_virt() on architectures csky/hexagon/openrisc.

The pfn_to_virt() on those architectures takes PFN instead of PA as the
input to macro __va(), with PAGE_SHIFT applying to the converted VA, which
is not right, especially when there's a non-zero offset in __va(). [1]

The broken pfn_to_virt() was noticed when checking how page_to_virt() is
unfolded on x86. It turns out that the one in linux/mm.h instead of in
asm-generic/page.h is compiled for x86. However, page_to_virt() in
asm-generic/page.h is found out expanding to pfn_to_virt() with a bug
described above. The pfn_to_virt() is found out not right as well on
architectures csky/hexagon/openrisc.

Since there's no single caller on csky/hexagon/openrisc to pfn_to_virt()
and there are functions doing similar things as pfn_to_virt() --
- pfn_to_kaddr() in asm/page.h for csky,
- page_to_virt() in asm/page.h for hexagon, and
- page_to_virt() in linux/mm.h for openrisc,
just delete the pfn_to_virt() on those architectures.

The pfn_to_virt() in asm-generic/page.h is not touched in this patch as
it's referenced by page_to_virt() in that header while the whole header is
going to be removed as a whole due to no one including it.

Nice changelog text!

Applied it to the asm-generic tree now, thanks,
