Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:

 - Fix a bug exposed by a previous fix, where running guests with
   certain SMT topologies could crash the host on Power8.

 - Fix atomic sleep warnings when re-onlining CPUs, when PREEMPT is
   enabled.

Thanks to Nathan Lynch, Srikar Dronamraju, and Valentin Schneider.

With PREEMPT_COUNT=y, when a CPU is offlined and then onlined again, we
get:

BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/1/0/0x00000000
no locks held by swapper/1/0.
CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 5.15.0-rc2+ #100

 cpu_startup_entry+0x38/0x40
 start_secondary+0x2ec/0x3a0
 start_secondary_prolog+0x10/0x14

This is because powerpc's arch_cpu_idle_dead() decrements the idle task's
preempt count, for reasons explained in commit a7c2bb8279d2 ("powerpc:
Re-enable preemption before cpu_die()"), specifically "start_secondary()
expects a preempt_count() of 0."

However, since commit 2c669ef6979c ("powerpc/preempt: Don't touch the idle
task's preempt_count during hotplug") and commit f1a0a376ca0c ("sched/core:
Initialize the idle task with preemption disabled"), that justification no
longer holds.

The idle task isn't supposed to re-enable preemption, so remove the
vestigial preempt_enable() from the CPU offline path.

Tested with pseries and powernv in qemu, and pseries on PowerVM.

In isa206_idle_insn_mayloss() we store various registers into the stack
red zone, which is allowed.

However inside the IDLE_STATE_ENTER_SEQ_NORET macro we save r2 again,
to 0(r1), which corrupts the stack back chain.

We used to do the same in isa206_idle_insn_mayloss() itself, but we
fixed that in 73287caa9210 ("powerpc64/idle: Fix SP offsets when saving
GPRs"), however we missed that the macro also corrupts the back chain.

Corrupting the back chain is bad for debuggability but doesn't
necessarily cause a bug.

However we recently changed the stack handling in some KVM code, and it
now relies on the stack back chain being valid when it returns. The
corruption causes that code to return with r1 pointing somewhere in
kernel data, at some point LR is restored from the stack and we branch
to NULL or somewhere else invalid.

Only affects Power8 hosts running KVM guests, with dynamic_mt_modes
enabled (which it is by default).

The fixes tag below points to the commit that changed the KVM stack
handling, exposing this bug. The actual corruption of the back chain has
always existed since 948cf67c4726 ("powerpc: Add NAP mode support on
Power7 in HV mode").

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
 "A bit of a big batch, partly because I didn't send any last week, and
  also just because the BPF fixes happened to land this week.

  Summary:

   - Fix a regression hit by the IPR SCSI driver, introduced by the
     recent addition of MSI domains on pseries.

   - A big series including 8 BPF fixes, some with potential security
     impact and the rest various code generation issues.

   - Fix our program check assembler entry path, which was accidentally
     jumping into a gas macro and generating strange stack frames, which
     could confuse find_bug().

   - A couple of fixes, and related changes, to fix corner cases in our
     machine check handling.

   - Fix our DMA IOMMU ops, which were not always returning the optimal
     DMA mask, leading to at least one device falling back to 32-bit DMA
     when it shouldn't.

   - A fix for KUAP handling on 32-bit Book3S.

   - Fix crashes seen when kdumping on some pseries systems.

The machine check handler is not considered NMI on 64s. The early
handler is the true NMI handler, and then it schedules the
machine_check_exception handler to run when interrupts are enabled.

This works fine except the case of an unrecoverable MCE, where the true
NMI is taken when MSR[RI] is clear, it can not recover, so it calls
machine_check_exception directly so something might be done about it.

Calling an async handler from NMI context can result in irq state and
other things getting corrupted. This can also trigger the BUG at
  arch/powerpc/include/asm/interrupt.h:168
  BUG_ON(!arch_irq_disabled_regs(regs) &amp;&amp; !(regs-&gt;msr &amp; MSR_EE));

Fix this by making an _async version of the handler which is called
in the normal case, and a NMI version that is called for unrecoverable
interrupts.

_exception can be called by machine check handlers when the MCE hits
user code (e.g., pseries and powernv). This will enable local irqs
because, which is a dicey thing to do in NMI or hard irq context.

This seemed to worked out okay because a userspace MCE can basically be
treated like a synchronous interrupt (after async / imprecise MCEs are
filtered out). Since NMI and hard irq handlers have started growing
nmi_enter / irq_enter, and more irq state sanity checks, this has
started to cause problems (or at least trigger warnings).

The Fixes tag to the commit which introduced this rather than try to
work out exactly which commit was the first that could possibly cause a
problem because that may be difficult to prove.

Emergency stack path was jumping into a 3: label inside the
__GEN_COMMON_BODY macro for the normal path after it had finished,
rather than jumping over it. By a small miracle this is the correct
place to build up a new interrupt frame with the existing stack
pointer, so things basically worked okay with an added weird looking
700 trap frame on top (which had the wrong -&gt;nip so it didn't decode
bug messages either).

Fix this by avoiding using numeric labels when jumping over non-trivial
macros.

<title>powerpc/iommu: Report the correct most efficient DMA mask for PCI devices</title>

According to dma-api.rst, the dma_get_required_mask() helper should return
"the mask that the platform requires to operate efficiently". Which in
the case of PPC64 means the bypass mask and not a mask from an IOMMU table
which is shorter and slower to use due to map/unmap operations (especially
expensive on "pseries").

However the existing implementation ignores the possibility of bypassing
and returns the IOMMU table mask on the pseries platform which makes some
drivers (mpt3sas is one example) choose 32bit DMA even though bypass is
supported. The powernv platform sort of handles it by having a bigger
default window with a mask &gt;=40 but it only works as drivers choose
63/64bit if the required mask is &gt;32 which is rather pointless.

This reintroduces the bypass capability check to let drivers make
a better choice of the DMA mask.

"the mask that the platform requires to operate efficiently". Which in
the case of PPC64 means the bypass mask and not a mask from an IOMMU table
which is shorter and slower to use due to map/unmap operations (especially
expensive on "pseries").

However the existing implementation ignores the possibility of bypassing
and returns the IOMMU table mask on the pseries platform which makes some
drivers (mpt3sas is one example) choose 32bit DMA even though bypass is
supported. The powernv platform sort of handles it by having a bigger
default window with a mask &gt;=40 but it only works as drivers choose
63/64bit if the required mask is &gt;32 which is rather pointless.

This reintroduces the bypass capability check to let drivers make
a better choice of the DMA mask.
