This reverts commit 437b38c51162f8b87beb28a833c4d5dc85fa864e.

The memory semantics added in commit 437b38c51162 causes SystemMemory
Operation region, whose address range is not described in the EFI memory
map to be mapped as NormalNC memory on arm64 platforms (through
acpi_os_map_memory() in acpi_ex_system_memory_space_handler()).

This triggers the following abort on an ARM64 Ampere eMAG machine,
because presumably the physical address range area backing the Opregion
does not support NormalNC memory attributes driven on the bus.

If the Opregion address range is not present in the EFI memory map there
is no way for us to determine the memory attributes to use to map it -
defaulting to NormalNC does not work (and it is not correct on a memory
region that may have read side-effects) and therefore commit
437b38c51162 should be reverted, which means reverting back to the
original behavior whereby address ranges that are mapped using
acpi_os_map_memory() default to the safe devicenGnRnE attributes on
ARM64 if the mapped address range is not defined in the EFI memory map.

<title>arm64: Mitigate MTE issues with str{n}cmp()</title>

As with strlen(), the patches importing the updated str{n}cmp()
implementations were originally developed and tested before the
advent of CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS, and have subsequently revealed
not to be MTE-safe. Since in-kernel MTE is still a rather niche
case, let it temporarily fall back to the generic C versions for
correctness until we can figure out the best fix.

<title>arm64: add MTE supported check to thread switching and syscall entry/exit</title>

<content type='text'>
This lets us avoid doing unnecessary work on hardware that does not
support MTE, and will allow us to freely use MTE instructions in the
code called by mte_thread_switch().

Since this would mean that we do a redundant check in
mte_check_tfsr_el1(), remove it and add two checks now required in its
callers. This also avoids an unnecessary DSB+ISB sequence on the syscall
exit path for hardware not supporting MTE.

removed from the kernel, only a few functions in sparc remain that can be
changed to calling arch_copy_in_user() instead.

These are all handled correctly when calling the native system call entry
point, so remove the special cases.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM:
   - Page ownership tracking between host EL1 and EL2
   - Rely on userspace page tables to create large stage-2 mappings
   - Fix incompatibility between pKVM and kmemleak
   - Fix the PMU reset state, and improve the performance of the virtual
     PMU
   - Move over to the generic KVM entry code
   - Address PSCI reset issues w.r.t. save/restore
   - Preliminary rework for the upcoming pKVM fixed feature
   - A bunch of MM cleanups
   - a vGIC fix for timer spurious interrupts
   - Various cleanups

  s390:
   - enable interpretation of specification exceptions
   - fix a vcpu_idx vs vcpu_id mixup

  x86:
   - fast (lockless) page fault support for the new MMU
   - new MMU now the default
   - increased maximum allowed VCPU count
   - allow inhibit IRQs on KVM_RUN while debugging guests
   - let Hyper-V-enabled guests run with virtualized LAPIC as long as
     they do not enable the Hyper-V "AutoEOI" feature
   - fixes and optimizations for the toggling of AMD AVIC (virtualized
     LAPIC)
   - tuning for the case when two-dimensional paging (EPT/NPT) is
     disabled
   - bugfixes and cleanups, especially with respect to vCPU reset and
     choosing a paging mode based on CR0/CR4/EFER
   - support for 5-level page table on AMD processors

  Generic:
   - MMU notifier invalidation callbacks do not take mmu_lock unless
     necessary
   - improved caching of LRU kvm_memory_slot
   - support for histogram statistics
   - add statistics for halt polling and remote TLB flush requests"

  KVM: Drop unused kvm_dirty_gfn_invalid()
