The kernel does not use any keys besides IA so we don't need to
install IB/DA/DB/GA on kernel exit if we arrange to install them
on task switch instead, which we can expect to happen an order of
magnitude less often.
Furthermore we can avoid installing the user IA in the case where the
user task has IA disabled and just leave the kernel IA installed. This
also lets us avoid needing to install IA on kernel entry.
On an Apple M1 under a hypervisor, the overhead of kernel entry/exit
has been measured to be reduced by 15.6ns in the case where IA is
enabled, and 31.9ns in the case where IA is disabled.

Currently __cpu_setup conditionally initializes the address
authentication keys and enables them in SCTLR_EL1, doing so differently
for the primary CPU and secondary CPUs, and skipping this work for CPUs
returning from an idle state. For the latter case, cpu_do_resume
restores the keys and SCTLR_EL1 value after the MMU has been enabled.
This flow is rather difficult to follow, so instead let's move the
primary and secondary CPU initialization into their respective boot
paths. By following the example of cpu_do_resume and doing so once the
MMU is enabled, we can always initialize the keys from the values in
thread_struct, and avoid the machinery necessary to pass the keys in
secondary_data or open-coding initialization for the boot CPU.
This means we perform an additional RMW of SCTLR_EL1, but we already do
this in the cpu_do_resume path, and for other features in cpufeature.c,
so this isn't a major concern in a bringup path. Note that even while
the enable bits are clear, the key registers are accessible.
As this now renders the argument to __cpu_setup redundant, let's also
remove that entirely. Future extensions can follow a similar approach to
initialize values that differ for primary/secondary CPUs.

The 'sync' argument to ptrauth_keys_install_kernel macro is somewhat
opaque at callsites, so instead lets have regular and _nosync variants
of the macro to make this a little more obvious.

This patch restores the kernel keys from current task during cpu resume
after the mmu is turned on and ptrauth is enabled.
A flag is added in macro ptrauth_keys_install_kernel to check if isb
instruction needs to be executed.

Set up keys to use pointer authentication within the kernel. The kernel
will be compiled with APIAKey instructions, the other keys are currently
unused. Each task is given its own APIAKey, which is initialized during
fork. The key is changed during context switch and on kernel entry from
EL0.
The keys for idle threads need to be set before calling any C functions,
because it is not possible to enter and exit a function with different
keys.

As we're going to enable pointer auth within the kernel and use a
different APIAKey for the kernel itself, so move the user APIAKey
switch to EL0 exception return.
The other 4 keys could remain switched during task switch, but are also
moved to keep things consistent.
