This patch implements a fast entry for syscalls.
Syscalls don't have to preserve non volatile registers except LR.
This patch then implement a fast entry for syscalls, where
volatile registers get clobbered.
As this entry is dedicated to syscall it always sets MSR_EE
and warns in case MSR_EE was previously off
It also assumes that the call is always from user, system calls are
unexpected from kernel.
The overall series improves null_syscall selftest by 12,5% on an 83xx
and by 17% on a 8xx.

EXC_XFER_TEMPLATE() is not called with COPY_EE anymore so
we can get rid of copyee parameters and related COPY_EE and NOCOPY
macros.

All exceptions handlers know when to reenable interrupts, so
it is safer to enter all of them with MSR_EE unset, except
for syscalls.

syscalls are expected to be entered with MSR_EE set. Lets
make it inconditional by forcing MSR_EE on syscalls.
This patch adds EXC_XFER_SYS for that.

Unlike said in the comment, r1 is not reused by the critical
exception handler, as it uses a dedicated critirq_ctx stack.
Decrementing r1 early is then unneeded.
Should the above be valid, the code is crap buggy anyway as
r1 gets some intermediate values that would jeopardise the
whole process (for instance after mfspr r1,SPRN_SPRG_THREAD)
Using SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH2 to save r1 is then not needed, r11 can be
used instead. This avoids one mtspr and one mfspr and makes the
prolog closer to what's done on 6xx and 8xx.

This patch adds KASAN support for PPC32. The following patch
will add an early activation of hash table for book3s. Until
then, a warning will be raised if trying to use KASAN on an
hash 6xx.
To support KASAN, this patch initialises that MMU mapings for
accessing to the KASAN shadow area defined in a previous patch.
An early mapping is set as soon as the kernel code has been
relocated at its definitive place.
Then the definitive mapping is set once paging is initialised.
For modules, the shadow area is allocated at module_alloc().

This patch renames THREAD_INFO to TASK_STACK, because it is in fact
the offset of the pointer to the stack in task_struct so this pointer
will not be impacted by the move of THREAD_INFO.
Also make it available on 64-bit, as we'll need it there when we
activate THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK.

The Kconfig symbol SERIAL_TEXT_DEBUG was removed from
arch/powerpc/Kconfig.debug in v2.6.22. (In v2.6.27 it was also removed
from arch/ppc/Kconfig.debug.) So the check for its macro has evaluated
to false for over five years now. Remove that check and the few lines
of code hidden behind it.

The watchdog and FIT code has been #if 0'd for ever, if the CPU takes
an exception to either of those vectors it will jump into the middle
of the PIT or Data TLB code and surely crash.
At least some (all?) 405 cores have both the WDT and FIT
vectors defined, so lets have proper entry points for them.
Tested that the WDT vector works on a 405F6 core.

We currently turn interrupts back to their previous state before
calling do_page_fault(). This can be annoying when debugging as
a bad fault will potentially have lost some processor state before
getting into the debugger.
We also end up calling some generic code with interrupts enabled
such as notify_page_fault() with interrupts enabled, which could
be unexpected.
This changes our code to behave more like other architectures,
and make the assembly entry code call into do_page_faults() with
interrupts disabled. They are conditionally re-enabled from
within do_page_fault() in the same spot x86 does it.
While there, add the might_sleep() test in the case of a successful
trylock of the mmap semaphore, again like x86.
Also fix a bug in the existing assembly where r12 (_MSR) could get
clobbered by C calls (the DTL accounting in the exception common
macro and DISABLE_INTS) in some cases.

u64 is used rather than phys_addr_t to keep things simple, as
this is called from assembly code.
Update callers to pass a 64-bit address in r3/r4. Other unused
register assignments that were once parameters to machine_init
are dropped.
For FSL BookE, look up the physical address of the device tree from the
effective address passed in r3 by the loader. This is required for
situations where memory does not start at zero (due to AMP or IOMMU-less
virtualization), and thus the IMA doesn't start at zero, and thus the
device tree effective address does not equal the physical address.

The RMA (RMO is a misnomer) is a concept specific to ppc64 (in fact
server ppc64 though I hijack it on embedded ppc64 for similar purposes)
and represents the area of memory that can be accessed in real mode
(aka with MMU off), or on embedded, from the exception vectors (which
is bolted in the TLB) which pretty much boils down to the same thing.
We take that out of the generic MEMBLOCK data structure and move it into
arch/powerpc where it belongs, renaming it to "RMA" while at it.

The kernel uses SPRG registers for various purposes, typically in
low level assembly code as scratch registers or to hold per-cpu
global infos such as the PACA or the current thread_info pointer.
We want to be able to easily shuffle the usage of those registers
as some implementations have specific constraints realted to some
of them, for example, some have userspace readable aliases, etc..
and the current choice isn't always the best.
This patch should not change any code generation, and replaces the
usage of SPRN_SPRGn everywhere in the kernel with a named replacement
and adds documentation next to the definition of the names as to
what those are used for on each processor family.
The only parts that still use the original numbers are bits of KVM
or suspend/resume code that just blindly needs to save/restore all
the SPRGs.

On machines with more than one exception level any system register that
might be modified by the "normal" exception level needs to be saved and
restored on taking a higher level exception. We already are saving
and restoring ESR and DEAR.
For critical level add SRR0/1.
For debug level add CSRR0/1 and SRR0/1.
For machine check level add DSRR0/1, CSRR0/1, and SRR0/1.
On FSL Book-E parts we always save/restore the MAS registers for critical,
debug, and machine check level exceptions. On 44x we always save/restore
the MMUCR.
Additionally, we save and restore the ksp_limit since we have to adjust it
for each exception level.

For the additonal exception levels (critical, debug, machine check) on
40x/book-e we were using "static" allocations of the stack in the
associated head.S.
Move to a runtime allocation to make the code a bit easier to read as
we mimic how we handle IRQ stacks. Its also a bit easier to setup the
stack with a "dummy" thread_info in C code.
