Several people reported in the kernel bugzilla that between v4.12 and v4.13
the magic which works around broken hardware and BIOSes to find the proper
timer interrupt delivery mode stopped working for some older affected
platforms which need to fall back to ExtINT delivery mode.

The reason is that the core code changed to keep track of the masked and
disabled state of an interrupt line more accurately to avoid the expensive
hardware operations.

That broke an assumption in i8259_make_irq() which invokes

     disable_irq_nosync();
     irq_set_chip_and_handler();
     enable_irq();

Up to v4.12 this worked because enable_irq() unconditionally unmasked the
interrupt line, but after the state tracking improvements this is not
longer the case because the IO/APIC uses lazy disabling. So the line state
is unmasked which means that enable_irq() does not call into the new irq
chip to unmask it.

In principle this is a shortcoming of the core code, but it's more than
unclear whether the core code should try to reset state. At least this
cannot be done unconditionally as that would break other existing use cases
where the chip type is changed, e.g. when changing the trigger type, but
the callers expect the state to be preserved.

As the way how check_timer() is switching the delivery modes is truly
unique, the obvious fix is to simply unmask the i8259 manually after
changing the mode to ExtINT delivery and switching the irq chip to the
legacy PIC.

Note, that the fixes tag is not really precise, but identifies the commit
which broke the assumptions in the IO/APIC and i8259 code and that's the
kernel version to which this needs to be backported.

Sami reported that run_on_irqstack_cond() requires the caller to cast
functions to mismatching types, which trips indirect call Control-Flow
Integrity (CFI) in Clang.

Instead of disabling CFI on that function, provide proper helpers for
the three call variants. The actual ASM code stays the same as that is
out of reach.

The commit 0f990222108d ("KVM: Check the allocation of pv cpu mask") we
have in 5.9-rc5 has two issue:
1) Compilation fails for !CONFIG_SMP, see:
   https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=209285

2) This commit completely disables PV TLB flush, see
   https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/87y2lrnnyf.fsf@vitty.brq.redhat.com/

The allocation problem is likely a theoretical one, if we don't
have memory that early in boot process we're likely doomed anyway.
Let's solve it properly later.

This reverts commit 0f990222108d214a0924d920e6095b58107d7b59.

There have been some reports of "bad bp value" warnings printed by the
frame pointer unwinder:

  WARNING: kernel stack regs at 000000005bac7112 in sh:1014 has bad 'bp' value 0000000000000000

This warning happens when unwinding from an interrupt in
ret_from_fork(). If entry code gets interrupted, the state of the
frame pointer (rbp) may be undefined, which can confuse the unwinder,
resulting in warnings like the above.

There's an in_entry_code() check which normally silences such
warnings for entry code. But in this case, ret_from_fork() is getting
interrupted. It recently got moved out of .entry.text, so the
in_entry_code() check no longer works.

It could be moved back into .entry.text, but that would break the
noinstr validation because of the call to schedule_tail().

Instead, initialize each new task's RBP to point to the task's entry
regs via an encoded frame pointer.  That will allow the unwinder to
reach the end of the stack gracefully.

Merge commit 26d05b368a5c0 ("Merge branch 'kvm-async-pf-int' into HEAD")
tried to adapt the new interrupt based async PF mechanism to the newly
introduced IDTENTRY magic but unfortunately it missed the fact that
DEFINE_IDTENTRY_SYSVEC() doesn't call ack_APIC_irq() on its own and
all DEFINE_IDTENTRY_SYSVEC() users have to call it manually.

As the result all multi-CPU KVM guest hang on boot when
KVM_FEATURE_ASYNC_PF_INT is present. The breakage went unnoticed because no
KVM userspace (e.g. QEMU) currently set it (and thus async PF mechanism
is currently disabled) but we're about to change that.

Fixes: 26d05b368a5c0 ("Merge branch 'kvm-async-pf-int' into HEAD")
