powerpc/rtas: Avoid warning on invalid token argument to sys_rtas()
rtas_token_to_function() WARNs when passed an invalid token; it's
meant to catch bugs in kernel-based users of RTAS functions. However,
user space controls the token value passed to rtas_token_to_function()
by block_rtas_call(), so user space with sufficient privilege to use
sys_rtas() can trigger the warnings at will:
unexpected failed lookup for token 2048
WARNING: CPU: 20 PID: 2247 at arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas.c:556
rtas_token_to_function+0xfc/0x110
...
NIP rtas_token_to_function+0xfc/0x110
LR rtas_token_to_function+0xf8/0x110
Call Trace:
rtas_token_to_function+0xf8/0x110 (unreliable)
sys_rtas+0x188/0x880
system_call_exception+0x268/0x530
system_call_common+0x160/0x2c4
It's desirable to continue warning on bogus tokens in
rtas_token_to_function(). Currently it is used to look up RTAS
function descriptors when tracing, where we know there has to have
been a successful descriptor lookup by different means already, and it
would be a serious inconsistency for the reverse lookup to fail.
So instead of weakening rtas_token_to_function()'s contract by
removing the warnings, introduce rtas_token_to_function_untrusted(),
which has no opinion on failed lookups. Convert block_rtas_call() and
rtas_token_to_function() to use it.
