Define ptdesc_t type which describes the basic page table descriptor
layout on arm64 platform. Subsequently all level specific pxxval_t
descriptors are derived from ptdesc_t thus establishing a common original
format, which can also be appropriate for page table entries, masks and
protection values etc which are used at all page table levels.

Calling into the MIDR checking framework from the PI code has recently
become much harder, due to the new fancy "multi-MIDR" support that
relies on tables being populated at boot time, but not that early that
they are available to the PI code. There are additional issues with
this framework, as the code really isn't position independend *at all*.
This leads to some ugly breakages, as reported by Ada.
It so appears that the only reason for the PI code to call into the
MIDR checking code is to cope with The Most Broken ARM64 System Ever,
aka Cavium ThunderX, which cannot deal with nG attributes that result
of the combination of KASLR and KPTI as a consequence of Erratum 27456.
Duplicate the check for the erratum in the PI code, removing the
dependency on the bulk of the MIDR checking framework. This allows
dropping that same check from kaslr_requires_kpti(), as the KPTI code
already relies on the ARM64_WORKAROUND_CAVIUM_27456 cap.

When FEAT_LPA{,2} are not implemented, the ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.PARange and
TCR.IPS values corresponding with 52-bit physical addressing are
reserved.
Setting the TCR.IPS field to 0b110 (52-bit physical addressing) has side
effects, such as how the TTBRn_ELx.BADDR fields are interpreted, and so
it is important that disabling FEAT_LPA2 (by overriding the
ID_AA64MMFR0.TGran fields) also presents a PARange field consistent with
that.
So limit the field to 48 bits unless LPA2 is enabled, and update
existing references to use the override consistently.

In the attempt to clear and recreate the initial ID map for LPA2, we
wrongly use 'start - end' as the map size and make the memset() almost a
nop.
Fix it by passing the correct map size.

This reverts commit 50e3ed0f93f4f62ed2aa83de5db6cb84ecdd5707.
The SCTLR_EL1.WXN control forces execute-never when a page has write
permissions. While the idea of hardening such write/exec combinations is
good, with permissions indirection enabled (FEAT_PIE) this control
becomes RES0. FEAT_PIE introduces a slightly different form of WXN which
only has an effect when the base permission is RWX and the write is
toggled by the permission overlay (FEAT_POE, not yet supported by the
arm64 kernel). Revert the patch for now.

The AArch64 virtual memory system supports a global WXN control, which
can be enabled to make all writable mappings implicitly no-exec. This is
a useful hardening feature, as it prevents mistakes in managing page
table permissions from being exploited to attack the system.
When enabled at EL1, the restrictions apply to both EL1 and EL0. EL1 is
completely under our control, and has been cleaned up to allow WXN to be
enabled from boot onwards. EL0 is not under our control, but given that
widely deployed security features such as selinux or PaX already limit
the ability of user space to create mappings that are writable and
executable at the same time, the impact of enabling this for EL0 is
expected to be limited. (For this reason, common user space libraries
that have a legitimate need for manipulating executable code already
carry fallbacks such as [0].)
If enabled at compile time, the feature can still be disabled at boot if
needed, by passing arm64.nowxn on the kernel command line.

Update the early kernel mapping code to take 52-bit virtual addressing
into account based on the LPA2 feature. This is a bit more involved than
LVA (which is supported with 64k pages only), given that some page table
descriptor bits change meaning in this case.
To keep the handling in asm to a minimum, the initial ID map is still
created with 48-bit virtual addressing, which implies that the kernel
image must be loaded into 48-bit addressable physical memory. This is
currently required by the boot protocol, even though we happen to
support placement outside of that for LVA/64k based configurations.
Enabling LPA2 involves more than setting TCR.T1SZ to a lower value,
there is also a DS bit in TCR that needs to be set, and which changes
the meaning of bits [9:8] in all page table descriptors. Since we cannot
enable DS and every live page table descriptor at the same time, let's
pivot through another temporary mapping. This avoids the need to
reintroduce manipulations of the page tables with the MMU and caches
disabled.
To permit the LPA2 feature to be overridden on the kernel command line,
which may be necessary to work around silicon errata, or to deal with
mismatched features on heterogeneous SoC designs, test for CPU feature
overrides first, and only then enable LPA2.

Currently, we detect CPU support for 52-bit virtual addressing (LVA)
extremely early, before creating the kernel page tables or enabling the
MMU. We cannot override the feature this early, and so large virtual
addressing is always enabled on CPUs that implement support for it if
the software support for it was enabled at build time. It also means we
rely on non-trivial code in asm to deal with this feature.
Given that both the ID map and the TTBR1 mapping of the kernel image are
guaranteed to be 48-bit addressable, it is not actually necessary to
enable support this early, and instead, we can model it as a CPU
feature. That way, we can rely on code patching to get the correct
TCR.T1SZ values programmed on secondary boot and resume from suspend.
On the primary boot path, we simply enable the MMU with 48-bit virtual
addressing initially, and update TCR.T1SZ if LVA is supported from C
code, right before creating the kernel mapping. Given that TTBR1 still
points to reserved_pg_dir at this point, updating TCR.T1SZ should be
safe without the need for explicit TLB maintenance.
Since this gets rid of all accesses to the vabits_actual variable from
asm code that occurred before TCR.T1SZ had been programmed, we no longer
have a need for this variable, and we can replace it with a C expression
that produces the correct value directly, based on the value of TCR.T1SZ.

Now that the early kernel mapping is created with all the right
attributes and segment boundaries, there is no longer a need to recreate
it and switch to it. This also means we no longer have to copy the kasan
shadow or some parts of the fixmap from one set of page tables to the
other.

The asm code that creates the initial ID map is rather intricate and
hard to follow. This is problematic because it makes adding support for
things like LPA2 or WXN more difficult than necessary. Also, it is
parameterized like the rest of the MM code to run with a configurable
number of levels, which is rather pointless, given that all AArch64 CPUs
implement support for 48-bit virtual addressing, and that many systems
exist with DRAM located outside of the 39-bit addressable range, which
is the only smaller VA size that is widely used, and we need additional
tricks to make things work in that combination.
So let's bite the bullet, and rip out all the asm macros, and fiddly
code, and replace it with a C implementation based on the newly added
routines for creating the early kernel VA mappings. And while at it,
create the initial ID map based on 48-bit virtual addressing as well,
regardless of the number of configured levels for the kernel proper.
Note that this code may execute with the MMU and caches disabled, and is
therefore not permitted to make unaligned accesses. This shouldn't
generally happen in any case for the algorithm as implemented, but to be
sure, let's pass -mstrict-align to the compiler just in case.

The asm version of the kernel mapping code works fine for creating a
coarse grained identity map, but for mapping the kernel down to its
exact boundaries with the right attributes, it is not suitable. This is
why we create a preliminary RWX kernel mapping first, and then rebuild
it from scratch later on.
So let's reimplement this in C, in a way that will make it unnecessary
to create the kernel page tables yet another time in paging_init().
