Commit efd9e03facd0 ("arm64: Use static keys for CPU features")
introduced support for static keys in asm/cpufeature.h, including
linux/jump_label.h. When CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO is not defined, this causes a
circular dependency via linux/atomic.h, asm/lse.h and asm/cpufeature.h.
This patch moves the capability macros out out of asm/cpufeature.h into
a separate asm/cpucaps.h and modifies some of the #includes accordingly.

Kernel source files need not include <linux/kconfig.h> explicitly
because the top Makefile forces to include it with:
-include $(srctree)/include/linux/kconfig.h
This commit removes explicit includes except the following:
* arch/s390/include/asm/facilities_src.h
* tools/testing/radix-tree/linux/kernel.h
These two are used for host programs.

In some cases, one side of an alternative sequence is simply a number of
NOPs used to balance the other side. Keeping track of this manually is
tedious, and the presence of large chains of NOPs makes the code more
painful to read than necessary.
To ameliorate matters, this patch adds a new alternative_else_nop_endif,
which automatically balances an alternative sequence with a trivial NOP
sled.
In many cases, we would like a NOP-sled in the default case, and
instructions patched in in the presence of a feature. To enable the NOPs
to be generated automatically for this case, this patch also adds a new
alternative_if, and updates alternative_else and alternative_endif to
work with either alternative_if or alternative_endif.

The ARM errata 819472, 826319, 827319 and 824069 for affected
Cortex-A53 cores demand to promote "dc cvau" instructions to
"dc civac" as well.
Attribute the usage of the instruction in __flush_cache_user_range
to also be covered by our alternative patching efforts.
For that we introduce an assembly macro which both deals with
alternatives while still tagging the instructions as USER.

Commit 77ee306c0aea9 ("arm64: alternatives: add enable parameter to
conditional asm macros") extended the alternative assembly macros.
Unfortunately this does not really work as one would expect, as the
enable parameter in fact correctly protects the alternative section
magic, but not the actual code sequences.
This results in having both the original instruction(s) _and_ the
alternative ones, if enable if false.
Since there is no user of this macros anyway, just revert it.
This reverts commit 77ee306c0aea9a219daec256ad25982944affef8.

Instead of using absolute addresses for both the exception location
and the fixup, use offsets relative to the exception table entry values.
Not only does this cut the size of the exception table in half, it is
also a prerequisite for KASLR, since absolute exception table entries
are subject to dynamic relocation, which is incompatible with the sorting
of the exception table that occurs at build time.
This patch also introduces the _ASM_EXTABLE preprocessor macro (which
exists on x86 as well) and its _asm_extable assembly counterpart, as
shorthands to emit exception table entries.

'User Access Override' is a new ARMv8.2 feature which allows the
unprivileged load and store instructions to be overridden to behave in
the normal way.
This patch converts {get,put}_user() and friends to use ldtr*/sttr*
instructions - so that they can only access EL0 memory, then enables
UAO when fs==KERNEL_DS so that these functions can access kernel memory.
This allows user space's read/write permissions to be checked against the
page tables, instead of testing addr<USER_DS, then using the kernel's
read/write permissions.

Currently we treat the alternatives separately from other data that's
only used during initialisation, using separate .altinstructions and
.altinstr_replacement linker sections. These are freed for general
allocation separately from .init*. This is problematic as:
* We do not remove execute permissions, as we do for .init, leaving the
memory executable.
* We pad between them, making the kernel Image bianry up to PAGE_SIZE
bytes larger than necessary.
This patch moves the two sections into the contiguous region used for
.init*. This saves some memory, ensures that we remove execute
permissions, and allows us to remove some code made redundant by this
reorganisation.

When patching the kernel text with alternatives, we may end up patching
parts of the stop_machine state machine (e.g. atomic_dec_and_test in
ack_state) and consequently corrupt the instruction stream of any
secondary CPUs.
This patch passes the cpu_online_mask to stop_machine, forcing all of
the CPUs into our own callback which can place the secondary cores into
a dumb (but safe!) polling loop whilst the patching is carried out.

Some uses of ALTERNATIVE() may depend on a feature that is disabled at
compile time by a Kconfig option. In this case the unused alternative
instructions waste space, and if the original instruction is a nop, it
wastes time and space.
This patch adds an optional 'config' option to ALTERNATIVE() and
alternative_insn that allows the compiler to remove both the original
and alternative instructions if the config option is not defined.

The existing alternative_insn macro has some limitations that make it
hard to work with. In particular the fact it takes instructions from it
own macro arguments means it doesn't play very nicely with C pre-processor
macros because the macro arguments look like a string to the C
pre-processor. Workarounds are (probably) possible but things start to
look ugly.
Introduce an alternative set of macros that allows instructions to be
presented to the assembler as normal and switch everything over to the
new macros.

AArch64 toolchains suffer from the following bug:
$ cat blah.S
1:
.inst 0x01020304
.if ((. - 1b) != 4)
.error "blah"
.endif
$ aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc -c blah.S
blah.S: Assembler messages:
blah.S:3: Error: non-constant expression in ".if" statement
which precludes the use of msr_s and co as part of alternatives.
We workaround this issue by not directly testing the labels
themselves, but by moving the current output pointer by a value
that should always be zero. If this value is not null, then
we will trigger a backward move, which is expclicitely forbidden.
This triggers the error we're after:
AS arch/arm64/kvm/hyp.o
arch/arm64/kvm/hyp.S: Assembler messages:
arch/arm64/kvm/hyp.S:1377: Error: attempt to move .org backwards
scripts/Makefile.build:294: recipe for target 'arch/arm64/kvm/hyp.o' failed
make[1]: *** [arch/arm64/kvm/hyp.o] Error 1
Makefile:946: recipe for target 'arch/arm64/kvm' failed
Not pretty, but at least works on the current toolchains.

asm/alternative-asm.h and asm/alternative.h are extremely similar,
and really deserve to live in the same file (as this makes further
modufications a bit easier).
Fold the content of alternative-asm.h into alternative.h, and
update the few users.

Currently the kernel patches all necessary instructions once at boot
time, so modules are not covered by this.
Change the apply_alternatives() function to take a beginning and an
end pointer and introduce a new variant (apply_alternatives_all()) to
cover the existing use case for the static kernel image section.
Add a module_finalize() function to arm64 to check for an
alternatives section in a module and patch only the instructions from
that specific area.
Since that module code is not touched before the module
initialization has ended, we don't need to halt the machine before
doing the patching in the module's code.

With a blatant copy of some x86 bits we introduce the alternative
runtime patching "framework" to arm64.
This is quite basic for now and we only provide the functions we need
at this time.
This is connected to the newly introduced feature bits.
