<title>x86/ldt: use "pr_info_once()" instead of open-coding it badly</title>

<content type='text'>
Using a mutex for "print this warning only once" is so overdesigned as
to be actively offensive to my sensitive stomach.

Just use "pr_info_once()" that already does this, although in a
(harmlessly) racy manner that can in theory cause the message to be
printed twice if more than one CPU races on that "is this the first
time" test.

[ If somebody really cares about that harmless data race (which sounds
  very unlikely indeed), that person can trivially fix printk_once() by
  using a simple atomic access, preferably with an optimistic non-atomic
  test first before even bothering to treat the pointless "make sure it
  is _really_ just once" case.

  A mutex is most definitely never the right primitive to use for
  something like this. ]

Yes, this is a small and meaningless detail in a code path that hardly
matters.  But let's keep some code quality standards here, and not
accept outrageously bad code.

 "A series of fixes for x86:

   - Reset MXCSR in kernel_fpu_begin() to prevent using a stale user
     space value.

   - Prevent writing MSR_TEST_CTRL on CPUs which are not explicitly
     whitelisted for split lock detection. Some CPUs which do not
     support it crash even when the MSR is written to 0 which is the
     default value.

   - Fix the XEN PV fallout of the entry code rework

   - Fix the 32bit fallout of the entry code rework

   - Add more selftests to ensure that these entry problems don't come
     back.

   - Disable 16 bit segments on XEN PV. It's not supported because XEN
     PV does not implement ESPFIX64"

<title>MIPS: Add missing EHB in mtc0 -&gt; mfc0 sequence for DSPen</title>

This resolves the hazard between the mtc0 in the change_c0_status() and
the mfc0 in configure_exception_vector(). Without resolving this hazard
configure_exception_vector() could read an old value and would restore
this old value again. This would revert the changes change_c0_status()
did. I checked this by printing out the read_c0_status() at the end of
per_cpu_trap_init() and the ST0_MX is not set without this patch.

The hazard is documented in the MIPS Architecture Reference Manual Vol.
III: MIPS32/microMIPS32 Privileged Resource Architecture (MD00088), rev
6.03 table 8.1 which includes:

   Producer | Consumer | Hazard
  ----------|----------|----------------------------
   mtc0     | mfc0     | any coprocessor 0 register

I saw this hazard on an Atheros AR9344 rev 2 SoC with a MIPS 74Kc CPU.
There the change_c0_status() function would activate the DSPen by
setting ST0_MX in the c0_status register. This was reverted and then the
system got a DSP exception when the DSP registers were saved in
save_dsp() in the first process switch. The crash looks like this:

[    0.089999] Mount-cache hash table entries: 1024 (order: 0, 4096 bytes, linear)
[    0.097796] Mountpoint-cache hash table entries: 1024 (order: 0, 4096 bytes, linear)
[    0.107070] Kernel panic - not syncing: Unexpected DSP exception
[    0.113470] Rebooting in 1 seconds..

We saw this problem in OpenWrt only on the MIPS 74Kc based Atheros SoCs,
not on the 24Kc based SoCs. We only saw it with kernel 5.4 not with
kernel 4.19, in addition we had to use GCC 8.4 or 9.X, with GCC 8.3 it
did not happen.

In the kernel I bisected this problem to commit 9012d011660e ("compiler:
allow all arches to enable CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING"), but when this was
reverted it also happened after commit 172dcd935c34b ("MIPS: Always
allocate exception vector for MIPSr2+").

Commit 0b24cae4d535 ("MIPS: Add missing EHB in mtc0 -&gt; mfc0 sequence.")
does similar changes to a different file. I am not sure if there are
more places affected by this problem.

Xen PV doesn't implement ESPFIX64, so they don't work right.  Disable
them.  Also print a warning the first time anyone tries to use a
16-bit segment on a Xen PV guest that would otherwise allow it
to help people diagnose this change in behavior.

This gets us closer to having all x86 selftests pass on Xen PV.

DEFINE_IDTENTRY_MCE and DEFINE_IDTENTRY_DEBUG were wired up as non-RAW
on x86_32, but the code expected them to be RAW.

Get rid of all the macro indirection for them on 32-bit and just use
DECLARE_IDTENTRY_RAW and DEFINE_IDTENTRY_RAW directly.

Also add a warning to make sure that we only hit the _kernel paths
in kernel mode.

<title>x86/entry/xen: Route #DB correctly on Xen PV</title>

On Xen PV, #DB doesn't use IST. It still needs to be correctly routed
depending on whether it came from user or kernel mode.

Get rid of DECLARE/DEFINE_IDTENTRY_XEN -- it was too hard to follow the
logic.  Instead, route #DB and NMI through DECLARE/DEFINE_IDTENTRY_RAW on
Xen, and do the right thing for #DB.  Also add more warnings to the
exc_debug* handlers to make this type of failure more obvious.

This fixes various forms of corruption that happen when usermode
triggers #DB on Xen PV.
