[ Upstream commit 2af22f3ec3ca452f1e79b967f634708ff01ced8a ]

Some Qualcomm Snapdragon based laptops built to run Microsoft Windows
are clearly ACPI 5.1 based, given that that is the first ACPI revision
that supports ARM, and introduced the FADT 'arm_boot_flags' field,
which has a non-zero field on those systems.

So in these cases, infer from the ARM boot flags that the FADT must be
5.1 or later, and treat it as 5.1.

<title>arm64: KVM/mm: Move SEA handling behind a single 'claim' interface</title>

To split up APEIs in_nmi() path, the caller needs to always be
in_nmi(). Add a helper to do the work and claim the notification.

When KVM or the arch code takes an exception that might be a RAS
notification, it asks the APEI firmware-first code whether it wants
to claim the exception. A future kernel-first mechanism may be queried
afterwards, and claim the notification, otherwise we fall through
to the existing default behaviour.

The NOTIFY_SEA code was merged before considering multiple, possibly
interacting, NMI-like notifications and the need to consider kernel
first in the future. Make the 'claiming' behaviour explicit.

Restructuring the APEI code to allow multiple NMI-like notifications
means any notification that might interrupt interrupts-masked
code must always be wrapped in nmi_enter()/nmi_exit(). This will
allow APEI to use in_nmi() to use the right fixmap entries.

Mask SError over this window to prevent an asynchronous RAS error
arriving and tripping 'nmi_enter()'s BUG_ON(in_nmi()).

	Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
	Rebooting in 10 seconds..

(diagnosis)
* This fault is a data abort, alignment fault (ESR=0x96000021)
  during reading out ACPI table.
* Initial ACPI tables are normally stored in system ram and marked as
  "ACPI Reclaim memory" by the firmware.
* After the commit f56ab9a5b73c ("efi/arm: Don't mark ACPI reclaim
  memory as MEMBLOCK_NOMAP"), those regions are differently handled
  as they are "memblock-reserved", without NOMAP bit.
* So they are now excluded from device tree's "usable-memory-range"
  which kexec-tools determines based on a current view of /proc/iomem.
* When crash dump kernel boots up, it tries to accesses ACPI tables by
  mapping them with ioremap(), not ioremap_cache(), in acpi_os_ioremap()
  since they are no longer part of mapped system ram.
* Given that ACPI accessor/helper functions are compiled in without
  unaligned access support (ACPI_MISALIGNMENT_NOT_SUPPORTED),
  any unaligned access to ACPI tables can cause a fatal panic.

With this patch, acpi_os_ioremap() always honors memory attribute
information provided by the firmware (EFI) and retaining cacheability
allows the kernel safe access to ACPI tables.

	Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
	Rebooting in 10 seconds..

(diagnosis)
* This fault is a data abort, alignment fault (ESR=0x96000021)
  during reading out ACPI table.
* Initial ACPI tables are normally stored in system ram and marked as
  "ACPI Reclaim memory" by the firmware.
* After the commit f56ab9a5b73c ("efi/arm: Don't mark ACPI reclaim
  memory as MEMBLOCK_NOMAP"), those regions are differently handled
  as they are "memblock-reserved", without NOMAP bit.
* So they are now excluded from device tree's "usable-memory-range"
  which kexec-tools determines based on a current view of /proc/iomem.
* When crash dump kernel boots up, it tries to accesses ACPI tables by
  mapping them with ioremap(), not ioremap_cache(), in acpi_os_ioremap()
  since they are no longer part of mapped system ram.
* Given that ACPI accessor/helper functions are compiled in without
  unaligned access support (ACPI_MISALIGNMENT_NOT_SUPPORTED),
  any unaligned access to ACPI tables can cause a fatal panic.

With this patch, acpi_os_ioremap() always honors memory attribute
information provided by the firmware (EFI) and retaining cacheability
allows the kernel safe access to ACPI tables.

SPCR is currently only enabled or ARM64 and x86 can use SPCR to setup
an early console.

General fixes include updating Documentation &amp; Kconfig (for x86),
updating comments, and changing parse_spcr() to acpi_parse_spcr(),
and earlycon_init_is_deferred to earlycon_acpi_spcr_enable to be
more descriptive.

On x86, many systems have a valid SPCR table but the table version is
not 2 so the table version check must be a warning.

On ARM64 when the kernel parameter earlycon is used both the early console
and console are enabled.  On x86, only the earlycon should be enabled by
by default.  Modify acpi_parse_spcr() to allow options for initializing
the early console and console separately.
