commit 445b69e3b75e42362a5bdc13c8b8f61599e2228a upstream

The inital fix for trusted boot and PTI potentially misses the pgd clearing
if pud_alloc() sets a PGD.  It probably works in *practice* because for two
adjacent calls to map_tboot_page() that share a PGD entry, the first will
clear NX, *then* allocate and set the PGD (without NX clear).  The second
call will *not* allocate but will clear the NX bit.

Defer the NX clearing to a point after it is known that all top-level
allocations have occurred.  Add a comment to clarify why.

[ tglx: Massaged changelog ]

[ hughd notes: I have not tested tboot, but this looks to me as necessary
and as safe in old-Kaiser backports as it is upstream; I'm not submitting
the commit-to-be-fixed 262b6b30087, since it was undone by 445b69e3b75e,
and makes conflict trouble because of 5-level's p4d versus 4-level's pgd.]

<title>x86/tboot: Remove paravirt_enabled() use</title>

There is already a check for boot_params.tboot_addr prior
to paravirt_enabled(). Both Xen and lguest, which are also the
only ones that set paravirt_enabled to true, never set the
boot_params.tboot_addr. The Xen folks are sure a force disable
to 0 is not needed, we recently forced disabled this on lguest.
With this in place this check is no longer needed.

Xen folks are sure force disable to 0 is not needed because
apm_info lives in .bss, we recently forced disabled this on
lguest, and on the Xen side just to be sure Boris zeroed out
the .bss for PV guests through commit 04b6b4a56884327c1648
("xen/x86: Zero out .bss for PV guests"). With this care taken
into consideration the paravirt_enabled() check is simply not
needed anymore.

<title>mm: cleanup *pte_alloc* interfaces</title>

There are few things about *pte_alloc*() helpers worth cleaning up:

 - 'vma' argument is unused, let's drop it;

 - most __pte_alloc() callers do speculative check for pmd_none(),
   before taking ptl: let's introduce pte_alloc() macro which does
   the check.

   The only direct user of __pte_alloc left is userfaultfd, which has
   different expectation about atomicity wrt pmd.

 - pte_alloc_map() and pte_alloc_map_lock() are redefined using
   pte_alloc().

<title>x86: delete __cpuinit usage from all x86 files</title>

<id>148f9bb87745ed45f7a11b2cbd3bc0f017d5d257</id>
<content type='text'>
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit  -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings.  In any case, they are temporary and harmless.

This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files.  x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files,
and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can
delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit  -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings.  In any case, they are temporary and harmless.

This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files.  x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files,
and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can
delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

These logs come from tboot (Trusted Boot, an open source,
pre-kernel/VMM module that uses Intel TXT to perform a
measured and verified launch of an OS kernel/VMM.).

<title>Revert "x86-64/efi: Use EFI to deal with platform wall clock (again)"</title>

<id>11520e5e7c1855fc3bf202bb3be35a39d9efa034</id>
<content type='text'>
This reverts commit bd52276fa1d4 ("x86-64/efi: Use EFI to deal with
platform wall clock (again)"), and the two supporting commits:

  da5a108d05b4: "x86/kernel: remove tboot 1:1 page table creation code"

  185034e72d59: "x86, efi: 1:1 pagetable mapping for virtual EFI calls")

as they all depend semantically on commit 53b87cf088e2 ("x86, mm:
Include the entire kernel memory map in trampoline_pgd") that got
reverted earlier due to the problems it caused.

This was pointed out by Yinghai Lu, and verified by me on my Macbook Air
that uses EFI.

For TXT boot, while Linux kernel trys to shutdown/S3/S4/reboot, it
need to jump back to tboot code and do TXT teardown work. Previously
kernel zapped all mem page identity mapping (va=pa) after booting, so
tboot code mem address was mapped again with identity mapping. Now
kernel didn't zap the identity mapping page table, so tboot related
code can remove the remapping code before trapping back now.
