To implement Kernel Userspace Execution Prevention, this patch
sets NX bit on all user segments on kernel entry and clears NX bit
on all user segments on kernel exit.
Note that powerpc 601 doesn't have the NX bit, so KUEP will not
work on it. A warning is displayed at startup.

This patch adds Kernel Userspace Access Protection on the 8xx.
When a page is RO or RW, it is set RO or RW for Key 0 and NA
for Key 1.
Up to now, the User group is defined with Key 0 for both User and
Supervisor.
By changing the group to Key 0 for User and Key 1 for Supervisor,
this patch prevents the Kernel from being able to access user data.
At exception entry, the kernel saves SPRN_MD_AP in the regs struct,
and reapply the protection. At exception exit it restores SPRN_MD_AP
with the value saved on exception entry.

This patch adds ASM macros for saving, restoring and checking
the KUAP state, and modifies setup_32 to call them on exceptions
from kernel.
The macros are defined as empty by default for when CONFIG_PPC_KUAP
is not selected and/or for platforms which don't handle (yet) KUAP.

When KUAP is enabled we have logic to detect page faults that occur
outside of a valid user access region and are blocked by the AMR.
What we don't have at the moment is logic to detect a fault *within* a
valid user access region, that has been incorrectly blocked by AMR.
This is not meant to ever happen, but it can if we incorrectly
save/restore the AMR, or if the AMR was overwritten for some other
reason.
Currently if that happens we assume it's just a regular fault that
will be corrected by handling the fault normally, so we just return.
But there is nothing the fault handling code can do to fix it, so the
fault just happens again and we spin forever, leading to soft lockups.
So add some logic to detect that case and WARN() if we ever see it.
Arguably it should be a BUG(), but it's more polite to fail the access
and let the kernel continue, rather than taking down the box. There
should be no data integrity issue with failing the fault rather than
BUG'ing, as we're just going to disallow an access that should have
been allowed.
To make the code a little easier to follow, unroll the condition at
the end of bad_kernel_fault() and comment each case, before adding the
call to bad_kuap_fault().

Kernel Userspace Access Prevention utilises a feature of the Radix MMU
which disallows read and write access to userspace addresses. By
utilising this, the kernel is prevented from accessing user data from
outside of trusted paths that perform proper safety checks, such as
copy_{to/from}_user() and friends.
Userspace access is disabled from early boot and is only enabled when
performing an operation like copy_{to/from}_user(). The register that
controls this (AMR) does not prevent userspace from accessing itself,
so there is no need to save and restore when entering and exiting
userspace.
When entering the kernel from the kernel we save AMR and if it is not
blocking user access (because eg. we faulted doing a user access) we
reblock user access for the duration of the exception (ie. the page
fault) and then restore the AMR when returning back to the kernel.
This feature can be tested by using the lkdtm driver (CONFIG_LKDTM=y)
and performing the following:
# (echo ACCESS_USERSPACE) > [debugfs]/provoke-crash/DIRECT
If enabled, this should send SIGSEGV to the thread.
We also add paranoid checking of AMR in switch and syscall return
under CONFIG_PPC_KUAP_DEBUG.

This patch implements a framework for Kernel Userspace Access
Protection.
Then subarches will have the possibility to provide their own
implementation by providing setup_kuap() and
allow/prevent_user_access().
Some platforms will need to know the area accessed and whether it is
accessed from read, write or both. Therefore source, destination and
size and handed over to the two functions.
mpe: Rename to allow/prevent rather than unlock/lock, and add
read/write wrappers. Drop the 32-bit code for now until we have an
implementation for it. Add kuap to pt_regs for 64-bit as well as
32-bit. Don't split strings, use pr_crit_ratelimited().

This patch adds a skeleton for Kernel Userspace Execution Prevention.
Then subarches implementing it have to define CONFIG_PPC_HAVE_KUEP
and provide setup_kuep() function.

This patch adds a skeleton for Kernel Userspace Protection

The subsequent implementation of KUAP for radix makes use of a MMU
feature in order to patch out assembly when KUAP is disabled or
unsupported. This won't work unless there's an entry point for KUP
support before the feature magic happens, so for PPC64 setup_kup() is
called early in setup.
On PPC32, feature_fixup() is done too early to allow the same.
