The ifndef was added a long time ago to support archs that would define
their own mapping function.  The last user was the metag arch which was
removed from the tree, and as such there are no users left.  Let's kill
it.

Pull execve updates from Eric Biederman:
 "Last cycle for the Nth time I ran into bugs and quality of
  implementation issues related to exec that could not be easily be
  fixed because of the way exec is implemented. So I have been digging
  into exec and cleanup up what I can.

  I don't think I have exec sorted out enough to fix the issues I
  started with but I have made some headway this cycle with 4 sets of
  changes.

   - promised cleanups after introducing exec_update_mutex

   - trivial cleanups for exec

   - control flow simplifications

   - remove the recomputation of bprm-&gt;cred

  The net result is code that is a bit easier to understand and work
  with and a decrease in the number of lines of code (if you don't count
  the added tests)"

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "A sizeable pile of arm64 updates for 5.8.

  Summary below, but the big two features are support for Branch Target
  Identification and Clang's Shadow Call stack. The latter is currently
  arm64-only, but the high-level parts are all in core code so it could
  easily be adopted by other architectures pending toolchain support

  Branch Target Identification (BTI):

   - Support for ARMv8.5-BTI in both user- and kernel-space. This allows
     branch targets to limit the types of branch from which they can be
     called and additionally prevents branching to arbitrary code,
     although kernel support requires a very recent toolchain.

   - Function annotation via SYM_FUNC_START() so that assembly functions
     are wrapped with the relevant "landing pad" instructions.

   - BPF and vDSO updates to use the new instructions.

   - Addition of a new HWCAP and exposure of BTI capability to userspace
     via ID register emulation, along with ELF loader support for the
     BTI feature in .note.gnu.property.

   - Non-critical fixes to CFI unwind annotations in the sigreturn
     trampoline.

  Shadow Call Stack (SCS):

   - Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves
     platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each task
     that holds only return addresses. This protects function return
     control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack.

   - Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode,
     hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc).

   - Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it
     too.

   - SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing
     stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y.

  CPU feature detection:

   - Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system
     with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a concern
     for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on such a system.

   - Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has
     been extended.

  Perf and PMU drivers:

   - Minor fixes and cleanups to system PMU drivers.

  Hardware errata:

   - Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations.

   - Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig.

  Secure Monitor Call Calling Convention (SMCCC):

   - Update to the latest specification from Arm (v1.2).

   - Allow PSCI code to query the SMCCC version.

  Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI):

   - Unexport a bunch of unused symbols.

   - Minor fixes to handling of firmware data.

  Pointer authentication:

   - Add support for dumping the kernel PAC mask in vmcoreinfo so that
     the stack can be unwound by tools such as kdump.

   - Simplification of key initialisation during CPU bringup.

  BPF backend:

   - Improve immediate generation for logical and add/sub instructions.

  vDSO:

   - Minor fixes to the linker flags for consistency with other
     architectures and support for LLVM's unwinder.

   - Clean up logic to initialise and map the vDSO into userspace.

  ACPI:

   - Work around for an ambiguity in the IORT specification relating to
     the "num_ids" field.

   - Support _DMA method for all named components rather than only PCIe
     root complexes.

   - Minor other IORT-related fixes.

  Miscellaneous:

   - Initialise debug traps early for KGDB and fix KDB cacheflushing
     deadlock.

   - Minor tweaks to early boot state (documentation update, set
     TEXT_OFFSET to 0x0, increase alignment of PE/COFF sections).

   - Refactoring and cleanup"

   - Unexport a bunch of unused symbols.

   - Minor fixes to handling of firmware data.

  Pointer authentication:

   - Add support for dumping the kernel PAC mask in vmcoreinfo so that
     the stack can be unwound by tools such as kdump.

   - Simplification of key initialisation during CPU bringup.

  BPF backend:

   - Improve immediate generation for logical and add/sub instructions.

  vDSO:

   - Minor fixes to the linker flags for consistency with other
     architectures and support for LLVM's unwinder.

   - Clean up logic to initialise and map the vDSO into userspace.

  ACPI:

   - Work around for an ambiguity in the IORT specification relating to
     the "num_ids" field.

   - Support _DMA method for all named components rather than only PCIe
     root complexes.

   - Minor other IORT-related fixes.

  Miscellaneous:

   - Initialise debug traps early for KGDB and fix KDB cacheflushing
     deadlock.

   - Minor tweaks to early boot state (documentation update, set
     TEXT_OFFSET to 0x0, increase alignment of PE/COFF sections).

   - Refactoring and cleanup"

KMSAN reported uninitialized data being written to disk when dumping
core.  As a result, several kilobytes of kmalloc memory may be written
to the core file and then read by a non-privileged user.

<title>exec: Generic execfd support</title>

Most of the support for passing the file descriptor of an executable
to an interpreter already lives in the generic code and in binfmt_elf.
Rework the fields in binfmt_elf that deal with executable file
descriptor passing to make executable file descriptor passing a first
class concept.

Move the fd_install from binfmt_misc into begin_new_exec after the new
creds have been installed.  This means that accessing the file through
/proc/&lt;pid&gt;/fd/N is able to see the creds for the new executable
before allowing access to the new executables files.

Performing the install of the executables file descriptor after
the point of no return also means that nothing special needs to
be done on error.  The exiting of the process will close all
of it's open files.

Move the would_dump from binfmt_misc into begin_new_exec right
after would_dump is called on the bprm-&gt;file.  This makes it
obvious this case exists and that no nesting of bprm-&gt;file is
currently supported.

In binfmt_misc the movement of fd_install into generic code means
that it's special error exit path is no longer needed.

There is and has been for a very long time been a lot more going on in
flush_old_exec than just flushing the old state.  After the movement
of code from setup_new_exec there is a whole lot more going on than
just flushing the old executables state.

Rename flush_old_exec to begin_new_exec to more accurately reflect
what this function does.
