Stafford Horne a6db3aab9c openrisc: Fix issue with get_user for 64-bit values
commit d877322bc1 upstream.

A build failure was raised by kbuild with the following error.

    drivers/android/binder.c: Assembler messages:
    drivers/android/binder.c:3861: Error: unrecognized keyword/register name `l.lwz ?ap,4(r24)'
    drivers/android/binder.c:3866: Error: unrecognized keyword/register name `l.addi ?ap,r0,0'

The issue is with 64-bit get_user() calls on openrisc.  I traced this to
a problem where in the internally in the get_user macros there is a cast
to long __gu_val this causes GCC to think the get_user call is 32-bit.
This binder code is really long and GCC allocates register r30, which
triggers the issue. The 64-bit get_user asm tries to get the 64-bit pair
register, which for r30 overflows the general register names and returns
the dummy register ?ap.

The fix here is to move the temporary variables into the asm macros.  We
use a 32-bit __gu_tmp for 32-bit and smaller macro and a 64-bit tmp in
the 64-bit macro.  The cast in the 64-bit macro has a trick of casting
through __typeof__((x)-(x)) which avoids the below warning.  This was
barrowed from riscv.

    arch/openrisc/include/asm/uaccess.h:240:8: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size

I tested this in a small unit test to check reading between 64-bit and
32-bit pointers to 64-bit and 32-bit values in all combinations.  Also I
ran make C=1 to confirm no new sparse warnings came up.  It all looks
clean to me.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
