<title>ARC: entry: fix potential EFA clobber when TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE</title>

commit 00fdec98d9881bf5173af09aebd353ab3b9ac729 upstream.

Trap handler for syscall tracing reads EFA (Exception Fault Address),
in case strace wants PC of trap instruction (EFA is not part of pt_regs
as of current code).

However this EFA read is racy as it happens after dropping to pure
kernel mode (re-enabling interrupts). A taken interrupt could
context-switch, trigger a different task's trap, clobbering EFA for this
execution context.

Fix this by reading EFA early, before re-enabling interrupts. A slight
side benefit is de-duplication of FAKE_RET_FROM_EXCPN in trap handler.
The trap handler is common to both ARCompact and ARCv2 builds too.

This just came out of code rework/review and no real problem was reported
but is clearly a potential problem specially for strace.

As of today we guard early DSP init code with
ARC_AUX_DSP_BUILD (0x7A) BCR check to verify that we have
CPU with DSP configured. However that's not enough as in
ARCv1 CPU the same BCR (0x7A) is used for checking MUL/MAC
instructions presence.

So, let's guard DSP early init against non ARCv2.

Elide invalid configuration EZNPS + ARCv2, triggered by a
make allyesconfig build.

Granted the root cause is in source code (asm/barrier.h) where we check
for ARCv2 before PLAT_EZNPS, but it is better to avoid such combinations
at onset rather then baking subtle nuances into code.

<title>arch: split MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC definitions out to &lt;asm/vermagic.h&gt;</title>

As the bug report [1] pointed out, &lt;linux/vermagic.h&gt; must be included
after &lt;linux/module.h&gt;.

I believe we should not impose any include order restriction. We often
sort include directives alphabetically, but it is just coding style
convention. Technically, we can include header files in any order by
making every header self-contained.

Currently, arch-specific MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC is defined in
&lt;asm/module.h&gt;, which is not included from &lt;linux/vermagic.h&gt;.

Hence, the straight-forward fix-up would be as follows:

|--- a/include/linux/vermagic.h
|+++ b/include/linux/vermagic.h
|@@ -1,5 +1,6 @@
| /* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 */
| #include &lt;generated/utsrelease.h&gt;
|+#include &lt;linux/module.h&gt;
|
| /* Simply sanity version stamp for modules. */
| #ifdef CONFIG_SMP

This works enough, but for further cleanups, I split MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC
definitions into &lt;asm/vermagic.h&gt;.

With this, &lt;linux/module.h&gt; and &lt;linux/vermagic.h&gt; will be orthogonal,
and the location of MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC definitions will be consistent.

For arc and ia64, MODULE_PROC_FAMILY is only used for defining
MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC. I squashed it.

For hexagon, nds32, and xtensa, I removed &lt;asm/modules.h&gt; entirely
because they contained nothing but MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC definition.
Kbuild will automatically generate &lt;asm/modules.h&gt; at build-time,
wrapping &lt;asm-generic/module.h&gt;.

ARC uses the UTS_MACHINE defined in the top Makefile as follows:

  UTS_MACHINE     := $(ARCH)

We know it is "arc" when we are building the kernel for ARC.
Hard-code user_regset_view::name, like many other architectures do.
