Remove the local_{async,fiq}_{en,dis}able macros as they don't respect
our newly defined order and are only used to set the flags for process
context when we bring CPUs online.

Add a helper to do this. The IRQ flag varies as we want it masked on
the boot CPU until we are ready to handle interrupts.
The boot CPU unmasks SError during early boot once it can print an error
message. If we can print an error message about SError, we can do the
same for FIQ. Debug exceptions are already enabled by __cpu_setup(),
which has also configured MDSCR_EL1 to disable MDE and KDE.

<title>arm64: consistently log boot/secondary CPU IDs</title>

Currently we inconsistently log identifying information for the boot CPU
and secondary CPUs. For the boot CPU, we log the MIDR and MPIDR across
separate messages, whereas for the secondary CPUs we only log the MIDR.

In some cases, it would be useful to know the MPIDR of secondary CPUs,
and it would be nice for these messages to be consistent.

This patch ensures that in the primary and secondary boot paths, we log
both the MPIDR and MIDR in a single message, with a consistent format.
the MPIDR is consistently padded to 10 hex characters to cover Aff3 in
bits 39:32, so that IDs can be compared easily.

The newly redundant message in setup_arch() is removed.

<title>arm64: remove unneeded copy to init_utsname()-&gt;machine</title>

As you see in init/version.c, init_uts_ns.name.machine is initially
set to UTS_MACHINE.  There is no point to copy the same string.

I dug the git history to figure out why this line is here.  My best
guess is like this:

 - This line has been around here since the initial support of arm64
   by commit 9703d9d7f77c ("arm64: Kernel booting and initialisation").
   If ARCH (=arm64) and UTS_MACHINE (=aarch64) do not match,
   arch/$(ARCH)/Makefile is supposed to override UTS_MACHINE, but the
   initial version of arch/arm64/Makefile missed to do that.  Instead,
   the boot code copied "aarch64" to init_utsname()-&gt;machine.

 - Commit 94ed1f2cb5d4 ("arm64: setup: report ELF_PLATFORM as the
   machine for utsname") replaced "aarch64" with ELF_PLATFORM to
   make "uname" to reflect the endianness.

 - ELF_PLATFORM does not help to provide the UTS machine name to rpm
   target, so commit cfa88c79462d ("arm64: Set UTS_MACHINE in the
   Makefile") fixed it.  The commit simply replaced ELF_PLATFORM with
   UTS_MACHINE, but missed the fact the string copy itself is no longer
   needed.

identifiers if of_flat_dt_get_machine_name() return NULL, especially
when ACPI-based boot.

On arm32, the machine model specified in the device tree is printed
during boot-up, courtesy of of_flat_dt_match_machine().

On arm64, of_flat_dt_match_machine() is not called, and the machine
model information is not available from the kernel log.

Print the machine model to make it easier to derive the machine model
from an arbitrary kernel boot log.

Memory regions marked as NOMAP should not be used for general allocation
by the kernel, and should not even be covered by the linear mapping
(hence the name). However, drivers or other subsystems (such as ACPI)
that access the firmware directly may legally access them, which means
it is also reasonable for such drivers to claim them by invoking
request_resource(). Currently, this is prevented by the fact that arm64's
request_standard_resources() marks reserved regions as IORESOURCE_BUSY.

So drop the IORESOURCE_BUSY flag from these requests.
