arm64: Avoid cpus_have_const_cap() for ARM64_HAS_BTI

In system_supports_bti() we use cpus_have_const_cap() to check for
ARM64_HAS_BTI, but this is not necessary and alternative_has_cap_*() or
cpus_have_final_*cap() would be preferable.

For historical reasons, cpus_have_const_cap() is more complicated than
it needs to be. Before cpucaps are finalized, it will perform a bitmap
test of the system_cpucaps bitmap, and once cpucaps are finalized it
will use an alternative branch. This used to be necessary to handle some
race conditions in the window between cpucap detection and the
subsequent patching of alternatives and static branches, where different
branches could be out-of-sync with one another (or w.r.t. alternative
sequences). Now that we use alternative branches instead of static
branches, these are all patched atomically w.r.t. one another, and there
are only a handful of cases that need special care in the window between
cpucap detection and alternative patching.

Due to the above, it would be nice to remove cpus_have_const_cap(), and
migrate callers over to alternative_has_cap_*(), cpus_have_final_cap(),
or cpus_have_cap() depending on when their requirements. This will
remove redundant instructions and improve code generation, and will make
it easier to determine how each callsite will behave before, during, and
after alternative patching.

When CONFIG_ARM64_BTI_KERNEL=y, the ARM64_HAS_BTI cpucap is a strict
boot cpu feature which is detected and patched early on the boot cpu.
All uses guarded by CONFIG_ARM64_BTI_KERNEL happen after the boot CPU
has detected ARM64_HAS_BTI and patched boot alternatives, and hence can
safely use alternative_has_cap_*() or cpus_have_final_boot_cap().

Regardless of CONFIG_ARM64_BTI_KERNEL, all other uses of ARM64_HAS_BTI
happen after system capabilities have been finalized and alternatives
have been patched. Hence these can safely use alternative_has_cap_*) or
cpus_have_final_cap().

This patch splits system_supports_bti() into system_supports_bti() and
system_supports_bti_kernel(), with the former handling where the cpucap
affects userspace functionality, and ther latter handling where the
cpucap affects kernel functionality. The use of cpus_have_const_cap() is
replaced by cpus_have_final_cap() in cpus_have_const_cap, and
cpus_have_final_boot_cap() in system_supports_bti_kernel(). This will
avoid generating code to test the system_cpucaps bitmap and should be
better for all subsequent calls at runtime. The use of
cpus_have_final_cap() and cpus_have_final_boot_cap() will make it easier
to spot if code is chaanged such that these run before the ARM64_HAS_BTI
cpucap is guaranteed to have been finalized.

mm: remove zap_page_range and create zap_vma_pages

zap_page_range was originally designed to unmap pages within an address
range that could span multiple vmas. While working on [1], it was
discovered that all callers of zap_page_range pass a range entirely within
a single vma. In addition, the mmu notification call within zap_page
range does not correctly handle ranges that span multiple vmas. When
crossing a vma boundary, a new mmu_notifier_range_init/end call pair with
the new vma should be made.

Instead of fixing zap_page_range, do the following:
- Create a new routine zap_vma_pages() that will remove all pages within
the passed vma. Most users of zap_page_range pass the entire vma and
can use this new routine.
- For callers of zap_page_range not passing the entire vma, instead call
zap_page_range_single().
- Remove zap_page_range.

arm64/vdso: Add time namespace page

Allocate the time namespace page among VVAR pages. Provide
__arch_get_timens_vdso_data() helper for VDSO code to get the
code-relative position of VVARs on that special page.

If a task belongs to a time namespace then the VVAR page which contains
the system wide VDSO data is replaced with a namespace specific page
which has the same layout as the VVAR page. That page has vdso_data->seq
set to 1 to enforce the slow path and vdso_data->clock_mode set to
VCLOCK_TIMENS to enforce the time namespace handling path.

The extra check in the case that vdso_data->seq is odd, e.g. a concurrent
update of the VDSO data is in progress, is not really affecting regular
tasks which are not part of a time namespace as the task is spin waiting
for the update to finish and vdso_data->seq to become even again.

If a time namespace task hits that code path, it invokes the corresponding
time getter function which retrieves the real VVAR page, reads host time
and then adds the offset for the requested clock which is stored in the
special VVAR page.

The time-namespace page isn't allocated on !CONFIG_TIME_NAMESPACE, but
vma is the same size, which simplifies criu/vdso migration between
different kernel configs.

arm64/vdso: use the fault callback to map vvar pages

Currently the vdso has no awareness of time namespaces, which may
apply distinct offsets to processes in different namespaces. To handle
this within the vdso, we'll need to expose a per-namespace data page.

As a preparatory step, this patch separates the vdso data page from
the code pages, and has it faulted in via its own fault callback.
Subsquent patches will extend this to support distinct pages per time
namespace.

The vvar vma has to be installed with the VM_PFNMAP flag to handle
faults via its vma fault callback.

arm64: vdso: Map the vDSO text with guarded pages when built for BTI

The kernel is responsible for mapping the vDSO into userspace processes,
including mapping the text section as executable. Handle the mapping of
the vDSO for BTI similarly, mapping the text section as guarded pages so
the BTI annotations in the vDSO become effective when they are present.

This will mean that we can have BTI active for the vDSO in processes that
do not otherwise support BTI. This should not be an issue for any expected
use of the vDSO.

arm64: vdso: use consistent 'map' nomenclature

The current code doesn't use a consistent naming scheme for structures,
enums, or variables, making it harder than necessary to determine the
relationship between these.

Let's make this easier by consistently using 'map' nomenclature for
mappings created in userspace, minimizing redundant comments, and
using designated array initializers to tie indices to their respective
elements.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

arm64: vdso: use consistent 'abi' nomenclature

The current code doesn't use a consistent naming scheme for structures,
enums, or variables, making it harder than necessary to determine the
relationship between these.

Let's make this easier by consistently using 'vdso_abi' nomenclature.
The 'vdso_lookup' array is renamed to 'vdso_info' to describe what it
contains rather than how it is consumed.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
