34e3c4500c LoongArch: Rework CPU feature probe from CPUCFG/IOCSR
Probe ISA level, TLB, IOCSR information from CPUCFG to improve kernel
resilience to different core implementations.

BTW, IOCSR register definition appears to be a platform-specific spec
instead of an architecture spec, even for the Loongson CPUs there is no
guarantee that IOCSR will always present.

Thus it's dangerous to perform IOCSR probing without checking CPU type
and instruction availability.

01158487af LoongArch: Introduce hardware page table walker
Loongson-3A6000 and newer processors have hardware page table walker
(PTW) support. PTW can handle all fastpaths of TLBI/TLBL/TLBS/TLBM
exceptions by hardware, software only need to handle slowpaths (page
faults).

BTW, PTW doesn't append _PAGE_MODIFIED for page table entries, so we
change pmd_dirty() and pte_dirty() to also check _PAGE_DIRTY for the
"dirty" attribute.
