[ Upstream commit cf96ab1a966b87b09fdd9e8cc8357d2d00776a3a ]

Protect against the kcpuid code parsing faulty max subleaf numbers
through a min() expression.  Thus, ensuring that max_subleaf will always
be ≤ MAX_SUBLEAF_NUM.

Use "u32" for the subleaf numbers since kcpuid is compiled with -Wextra,
which includes signed/unsigned comparisons warnings.

When clone3() was introduced, it was not obvious how each architecture
deals with setting up the stack and keeping the register contents in
a fork()-like system call, so this was left for the architecture
maintainers to implement, with __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 defined by those
that already implement it.

Five years later, we still have a few architectures left that are missing
clone3(), and the macro keeps getting in the way as it's fundamentally
different from all the other __ARCH_WANT_SYS_* macros that are meant
to provide backwards-compatibility with applications using older
syscalls that are no longer provided by default.

Address this by reversing the polarity of the macro, adding an
__ARCH_BROKEN_SYS_CLONE3 macro to all architectures that don't
already provide the syscall, and remove __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3
from all the other ones.

<title>tools/x86/kcpuid: Add missing dir via Makefile</title>

So far the Makefile just installed the csv into $(HWDATADIR)/cpuid.csv, which
made it unaware about $DESTDIR. Add $DESTDIR to the install command and while
at it also create the directory, should it not exist already. This eases the
packaging of kcpuid and allows i.e. for the install on Arch to look like this:

  $ make BINDIR=/usr/bin DESTDIR="$pkgdir" -C tools/arch/x86/kcpuid install

Some background on DESTDIR:

DESTDIR is commonly used in packaging for staged installs (regardless of the
used package manager):

  https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html

So the package is built and installed into a directory which the package
manager later picks up and creates some archive from it.

What is specific to Arch Linux here is only the usage of $pkgdir in the
example, DESTDIR itself is widely used.

<title>tools headers arm64: Sync arm64's cputype.h with the kernel sources</title>

To get the changes in:

  0ce85db6c2141b7f ("arm64: cputype: Add Neoverse-V3 definitions")
  02a0a04676fa7796 ("arm64: cputype: Add Cortex-X4 definitions")
  f4d9d9dcc70b96b5 ("arm64: Add Neoverse-V2 part")

That makes this perf source code to be rebuilt:

  CC      /tmp/build/perf-tools/util/arm-spe.o

The changes in the above patch add MIDR_NEOVERSE_V[23] and
MIDR_NEOVERSE_V1 is used in arm-spe.c, so probably we need to add those
and perhaps MIDR_CORTEX_X4 to that array? Or maybe we need to leave this
for later when this is all tested on those machines?

  static const struct midr_range neoverse_spe[] = {
          MIDR_ALL_VERSIONS(MIDR_NEOVERSE_N1),
          MIDR_ALL_VERSIONS(MIDR_NEOVERSE_N2),
          MIDR_ALL_VERSIONS(MIDR_NEOVERSE_V1),
          {},
  };

Mark Rutland recommended about arm-spe.c:

"I would not touch this for now -- someone would have to go audit the
TRMs to check that those other cores have the same encoding, and I think
it'd be better to do that as a follow-up."

That addresses this perf build warning:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header differences:

To get the changes in:

  0ce85db6c2141b7f ("arm64: cputype: Add Neoverse-V3 definitions")
  02a0a04676fa7796 ("arm64: cputype: Add Cortex-X4 definitions")
  f4d9d9dcc70b96b5 ("arm64: Add Neoverse-V2 part")

That makes this perf source code to be rebuilt:

  CC      /tmp/build/perf-tools/util/arm-spe.o

The changes in the above patch add MIDR_NEOVERSE_V[23] and
MIDR_NEOVERSE_V1 is used in arm-spe.c, so probably we need to add those
and perhaps MIDR_CORTEX_X4 to that array? Or maybe we need to leave this
for later when this is all tested on those machines?

<title>tools headers UAPI: Sync kvm headers with the kernel sources</title>

To pick the changes in:

  4af663c2f64a8d25 ("KVM: SEV: Allow per-guest configuration of GHCB protocol version")
  4f5defae708992dd ("KVM: SEV: introduce KVM_SEV_INIT2 operation")
  26c44aa9e076ed83 ("KVM: SEV: define VM types for SEV and SEV-ES")
  ac5c48027bacb1b5 ("KVM: SEV: publish supported VMSA features")
  651d61bc8b7d8bb6 ("KVM: PPC: Fix documentation for ppc mmu caps")

That don't change functionality in tools/perf, as no new ioctl is added
for the 'perf trace' scripts to harvest.

This addresses these perf build warnings:

That patch just move definitions around, so this just silences this perf
