Sparse reports dereference of a __user pointer. copy_mc_to_user() takes
a __user pointer, verifies it, then calls the generic copy routine
copy_mc_generic().
As we have verified the pointer, cast out the __user annotation when
passing to copy_mc_generic().

Sparse reports several endianness warnings on variables and functions
that are consistently treated as big endian. There are no
multi-endianness shenanigans going on here so fix these low hanging
fruit up in one patch.
All changes are just type annotations; no endianness switching
operations are introduced by this patch.

Introduce PAGE_EXECONLY_X macro which provides exec-only rights.
The _X may be seen as redundant with the EXECONLY but it helps
keep consistency, all macros having the EXEC right have _X.
And put it next to PAGE_NONE as PAGE_EXECONLY_X is
somehow PAGE_NONE + EXEC just like all other SOMETHING_X are
just SOMETHING + EXEC.
On book3s/64 PAGE_EXECONLY becomes PAGE_READONLY_X.
On book3s/64, as PAGE_EXECONLY is only valid for Radix add
VM_READ flag in vm_get_page_prot() for non-Radix.
And update access_error() so that a non exec fault on a VM_EXEC only
mapping is always invalid, even when the underlying layer don't
always generate a fault for that.
For 8xx, set PAGE_EXECONLY_X as _PAGE_NA | _PAGE_EXEC.
For others, only set it as just _PAGE_EXEC
With that change, 8xx, e500 and 44x fully honor execute-only
protection.
On 40x that is a partial implementation of execute-only. The
implementation won't be complete because once a TLB has been loaded
via the Instruction TLB miss handler, it will be possible to read
the page. But at least it can't be read unless it is executed first.
On 603 MMU, TLB missed are handled by SW and there are separate
DTLB and ITLB. Execute-only is therefore now supported by not loading
DTLB when read access is not permitted.
On hash (604) MMU it is more tricky because hash table is common to
load/store and execute. Nevertheless it is still possible to check
whether _PAGE_READ is set before loading hash table for a load/store
access. At least it can't be read unless it is executed first.

To do that, _PAGE_READ flag is needed but there is no bit available

As _PAGE_NONE can also be implemented by clearing _PAGE_READ, remove
_PAGE_USER and add _PAGE_READ. Then use the virtual address to know
whether user rights or kernel rights are to be used.
With that change, 603 MMU now honors execute-only protection.

_PAGE_USER is used to select the zone. Today zone 0 is kernel
and zone 1 is user.
To implement _PAGE_NONE, _PAGE_USER is cleared, leading to no access
for user but kernel still has access to the page so it's possible for
a user application to write in that page by using a kernel function
as trampoline.
What is really wanted is to have user rights on pages below TASK_SIZE
and no user rights on pages above TASK_SIZE. Use zones for that.
There are 16 zones so lets use the 4 upper address bits to set the
zone and declare zone rights based on TASK_SIZE.
Then drop _PAGE_USER and reuse it as _PAGE_READ that will be checked
in Data TLB miss handler. That will properly handle PAGE_NONE for
both kernel and user.
In addition, it partially implements execute-only right. The
implementation won't be complete because once a TLB has been loaded
via the Instruction TLB miss handler, it will be possible to read
the page. But at least it can't be read unless it is executed first.

44x MMU has 6 page protection bits:
- R, W, X for supervisor
- R, W, X for user
It means that it can support X without R.
To do that, _PAGE_READ flag is needed but there is no bit available
for it in PTE. On the other hand the only real use of _PAGE_USER is
to implement PAGE_NONE by clearing _PAGE_USER.
As _PAGE_NONE can also be implemented by clearing _PAGE_READ,
remove _PAGE_USER and add _PAGE_READ. In order to insert bits in
one go during TLB miss, move _PAGE_ACCESSED and put _PAGE_READ
just after _PAGE_DIRTY so that _PAGE_DIRTY is copied into SW and
_PAGE_READ into SR at once.
With that change, 44x now also honors execute-only protection.

e500 MMU has 6 page protection bits:
- R, W, X for supervisor
- R, W, X for user
It means that it can support X without R.
To do that, _PAGE_READ flag is needed.
With 32 bits PTE there is no bit available for it in PTE. On the

clearing _PAGE_READ, remove _PAGE_USER and add _PAGE_READ. Move
_PAGE_PRESENT into bit 30 so that _PAGE_READ can match SR bit.
With 64 bits PTE _PAGE_USER is already the combination of SR and UR
so all we need to do is to rename it _PAGE_READ.

Commit b6cb20fdc2 ("powerpc/book3e: Fix set_memory_x() and
set_memory_nx()") implemented a more elaborated version of
pte_mkwrite() suitable for both kernel and user pages. That was
needed because set_memory_x() was using pte_mkwrite(). But since
commit a4c182ecf3 ("powerpc/set_memory: Avoid spinlock recursion
in change_page_attr()") pte_mkwrite() is not used anymore by
set_memory_x() so pte_mkwrite() can be simplified as it is only
used for user pages.

Currently, is_kdump_kernel() returns true in crash dump capture kernel
for both kdump and fadump crash dump capturing methods, as both these
methods set elfcorehdr_addr. Some restrictions enforced for crash dump
capture kernel, based on is_kdump_kernel(), are specifically meant for
kdump case and not desirable for fadump - eg. IO queues restriction in
device drivers. So, define is_kdump_kernel() to return false when f/w
assisted dump is active.

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

lppaca_shared_proc() takes a pointer to the lppaca which is typically
accessed through get_lppaca(). With DEBUG_PREEMPT enabled, this leads
to checking if preemption is enabled, for example:
BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: grep/10693
caller is lparcfg_data+0x408/0x19a0
CPU: 4 PID: 10693 Comm: grep Not tainted 6.5.0-rc3 #2
Call Trace:
dump_stack_lvl+0x154/0x200 (unreliable)
check_preemption_disabled+0x214/0x220
lparcfg_data+0x408/0x19a0
...
This isn't actually a problem however, as it does not matter which
lppaca is accessed, the shared proc state will be the same.
vcpudispatch_stats_procfs_init() already works around this by disabling
preemption, but the lparcfg code does not, erroring any time
/proc/powerpc/lparcfg is accessed with DEBUG_PREEMPT enabled.
Instead of disabling preemption on the caller side, rework
lppaca_shared_proc() to not take a pointer and instead directly access
the lppaca, bypassing any potential preemption checks.
