Pull vdso data page handling updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "First steps of consolidating the VDSO data page handling.

  The VDSO data page handling is architecture specific for historical
  reasons, but there is no real technical reason to do so.

  Aside of that VDSO data has become a dump ground for various
  mechanisms and fail to provide a clear separation of the
  functionalities.

  Clean this up by:

   - consolidating the VDSO page data by getting rid of architecture
     specific warts especially in x86 and PowerPC.

   - removing the last includes of header files which are pulling in
     other headers outside of the VDSO namespace.

   - seperating timekeeping and other VDSO data accordingly.

  Further consolidation of the VDSO page handling is done in subsequent
  changes scheduled for the next merge window.

  This also lays the ground for expanding the VDSO time getters for
  independent PTP clocks in a generic way without making every
  architecture add support seperately"

The compiler is smart enough to insert a call to memset() in
riscv_vdso_get_cpus(), which generates a dynamic relocation.

So prevent this by using -fno-builtin option.

Now Kbuild provides reasonable defaults for objtool, sanitizers, and
profilers.

Remove redundant variables.

Note:

This commit changes the coverage for some objects:

  - include arch/mips/vdso/vdso-image.o into UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV
  - include arch/sparc/vdso/vdso-image-*.o into UBSAN
  - include arch/sparc/vdso/vma.o into UBSAN
  - include arch/x86/entry/vdso/extable.o into KASAN, KCSAN, UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV

  - include arch/x86/entry/vdso/vma.o into GCOV, KCOV
  - include arch/x86/um/vdso/vma.o into KASAN, GCOV, KCOV

I believe these are positive effects because all of them are kernel

<title>kbuild: use $(src) instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for source directory</title>

<content type='text'>
Kbuild conventionally uses $(obj)/ for generated files, and $(src)/ for
checked-in source files. It is merely a convention without any functional
difference. In fact, $(obj) and $(src) are exactly the same, as defined
in scripts/Makefile.build:

    src := $(obj)

When the kernel is built in a separate output directory, $(src) does
not accurately reflect the source directory location. While Kbuild
resolves this discrepancy by specifying VPATH=$(srctree) to search for
source files, it does not cover all cases. For example, when adding a
header search path for local headers, -I$(srctree)/$(src) is typically
passed to the compiler.

This introduces inconsistency between upstream and downstream Makefiles
because $(src) is used instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for the latter.

To address this inconsistency, this commit changes the semantics of
$(src) so that it always points to the directory in the source tree.

Going forward, the variables used in Makefiles will have the following
meanings:

  $(obj)     - directory in the object tree
  $(src)     - directory in the source tree  (changed by this commit)
  $(objtree) - the top of the kernel object tree
  $(srctree) - the top of the kernel source tree

Consequently, $(srctree)/$(src) in upstream Makefiles need to be replaced
with $(src).

Such relocation causes crash of android linker similar to one
described in commit e05d57dcb8c7
("riscv: Fixup __vdso_gettimeofday broke dynamic ftrace").

Looks like this relocation is added by CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE which is
disabled in the default android kernel.

Before:

readelf -rW arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vdso.so:

Relocation section '.rela.dyn' at offset 0xd00 contains 1 entry:
    Offset             Info             Type
0000000000000d20  0000000000000003 R_RISCV_RELATIVE

objdump:
0000000000000c86 &lt;__vdso_riscv_hwprobe@@LINUX_4.15&gt;:
 c86:   0001                    nop

After:
readelf -rW arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vdso.so:

There are no relocations in this file.

objdump:
0000000000000c86 &lt;__vdso_riscv_hwprobe@@LINUX_4.15&gt;:
 c86:   e211                    bnez    a2,c8a &lt;__vdso_riscv_hwprobe...

 c8c:   ffffd797                auipc   a5,0xffffd

Also disable SCS since it also should not be available in vdso.

Pull RISC-V updates from Palmer Dabbelt:

 - Support for many new extensions in hwprobe, along with a handful of
   cleanups

 - Various cleanups to our page table handling code, so we alwayse use

 - Support for XIP kernels has been resurrected
