When kCFI is enabled, special handling is needed for the indirect call
to the kernel thread function.  Rewrite the ret_from_fork() function in
C so that the compiler can properly handle the indirect call.

<title>x86/smp: Dont access non-existing CPUID leaf</title>

stop_this_cpu() tests CPUID leaf 0x8000001f::EAX unconditionally. Intel
CPUs return the content of the highest supported leaf when a non-existing
leaf is read, while AMD CPUs return all zeros for unsupported leafs.

So the result of the test on Intel CPUs is lottery.

While harmless it's incorrect and causes the conditional wbinvd() to be
issued where not required.

Check whether the leaf is supported before reading it.

<title>x86/smp: Make stop_other_cpus() more robust</title>

<content type='text'>
Tony reported intermittent lockups on poweroff. His analysis identified the
wbinvd() in stop_this_cpu() as the culprit. This was added to ensure that
on SME enabled machines a kexec() does not leave any stale data in the
caches when switching from encrypted to non-encrypted mode or vice versa.

That wbinvd() is conditional on the SME feature bit which is read directly
from CPUID. But that readout does not check whether the CPUID leaf is
available or not. If it's not available the CPU will return the value of
the highest supported leaf instead. Depending on the content the "SME" bit
might be set or not.

That's incorrect but harmless. Making the CPUID readout conditional makes
the observed hangs go away, but it does not fix the underlying problem:

CPU0					CPU1

 stop_other_cpus()
   send_IPIs(REBOOT);			stop_this_cpu()
   while (num_online_cpus() &gt; 1);         set_online(false);
   proceed... -&gt; hang
				          wbinvd()

WBINVD is an expensive operation and if multiple CPUs issue it at the same
time the resulting delays are even larger.

But CPU0 already observed num_online_cpus() going down to 1 and proceeds
which causes the system to hang.

This issue exists independent of WBINVD, but the delays caused by WBINVD
make it more prominent.

Make this more robust by adding a cpumask which is initialized to the
online CPU mask before sending the IPIs and CPUs clear their bit in
stop_this_cpu() after the WBINVD completed. Check for that cpumask to
become empty in stop_other_cpus() instead of watching num_online_cpus().

The cpumask cannot plug all holes either, but it's better than a raw
counter and allows to restrict the NMI fallback IPI to be sent only the
CPUs which have not reported within the timeout window.

Add a few of arch_prctl() handles:

 - ARCH_ENABLE_TAGGED_ADDR enabled LAM. The argument is required number
   of tag bits. It is rounded up to the nearest LAM mode that can
   provide it. For now only LAM_U57 is supported, with 6 tag bits.

 - ARCH_GET_UNTAG_MASK returns untag mask. It can indicates where tag
   bits located in the address.

 - ARCH_GET_MAX_TAG_BITS returns the maximum tag bits user can request.
   Zero if LAM is not supported.

untagged_addr() is a helper used by the core-mm to strip tag bits and
get the address to the canonical shape based on rules of the current
thread. It only handles userspace addresses.

The untagging mask is stored in per-CPU variable and set on context
switching to the task.

The tags must not be included into check whether it's okay to access the
userspace address. Strip tags in access_ok().

<content type='text'>
Before commit 076cbf5d2163 ("x86/xen: don't let xen_pv_play_dead()
return"), in Xen, when a previously offlined CPU was brought back
online, it unexpectedly resumed execution where it left off in the
middle of the idle loop.

There were some hacks to make that work, but the behavior was surprising
as do_idle() doesn't expect an offlined CPU to return from the dead (in
arch_cpu_idle_dead()).

Now that Xen has been fixed, and the arch-specific implementations of
arch_cpu_idle_dead() also don't return, give it a __noreturn attribute.

This will cause the compiler to complain if an arch-specific
implementation might return.  It also improves code generation for both
caller and callee.

Also fixes the following warning:

  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_idle+0x25f: unreachable instruction

Before commit 076cbf5d2163 ("x86/xen: don't let xen_pv_play_dead()
return"), in Xen, when a previously offlined CPU was brought back
online, it unexpectedly resumed execution where it left off in the
middle of the idle loop.

There were some hacks to make that work, but the behavior was surprising
as do_idle() doesn't expect an offlined CPU to return from the dead (in
arch_cpu_idle_dead()).

Now that Xen has been fixed, and the arch-specific implementations of
arch_cpu_idle_dead() also don't return, give it a __noreturn attribute.

This will cause the compiler to complain if an arch-specific
implementation might return.  It also improves code generation for both
caller and callee.

Also fixes the following warning:

  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_idle+0x25f: unreachable instruction

play_dead() doesn't return.  Annotate it as such.  By extension this
also makes arch_cpu_idle_dead() noreturn.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These add EPP support to the AMD P-state cpufreq driver, add support
  for new platforms to the Intel RAPL power capping driver, intel_idle
  and the Qualcomm cpufreq driver, enable thermal cooling for Tegra194,
  drop the custom cpufreq driver for loongson1 that is not necessary any
  more (and the corresponding cpufreq platform device), fix assorted
  issues and clean up code.

  Specifics:

   - Add EPP support to the AMD P-state cpufreq driver (Perry Yuan, Wyes
     Karny, Arnd Bergmann, Bagas Sanjaya)

   - Drop the custom cpufreq driver for loongson1 that is not necessary
     any more and the corresponding cpufreq platform device (Keguang

   - Make cpufreq_unregister_driver() return void (Uwe Kleine-König)

   - Make the TEO cpuidle governor check CPU utilization in order to
     refine idle state selection (Kajetan Puchalski)

     cpuidle driver is selected and replace a default_idle() call in
     that driver with arch_cpu_idle() to allow MWAIT to be used (Li
     RongQing)

     Bityutskiy)
