arm64: head: Move early kernel mapping routines into C code

The asm version of the kernel mapping code works fine for creating a
coarse grained identity map, but for mapping the kernel down to its
exact boundaries with the right attributes, it is not suitable. This is
why we create a preliminary RWX kernel mapping first, and then rebuild
it from scratch later on.

So let's reimplement this in C, in a way that will make it unnecessary
to create the kernel page tables yet another time in paging_init().

arm64: head: Run feature override detection before mapping the kernel

To permit the feature overrides to be taken into account before the

detection code to an earlier stage in the boot.

In a subsequent patch, this will be taken advantage of by merging the
preliminary and permanent mappings of the kernel text and data into a
single one that gets created and relocated before start_kernel() is
called.

arm64: head: Clear BSS and the kernel page tables in one go

We will move the CPU feature overrides into BSS in a subsequent patch,
and this requires that BSS is zeroed before the feature override

it via this mapping.

Since the kernel page tables are right next to it, and also zeroed via
the ID map, let's drop the separate clear_page_tables() function, and
just zero everything in one go.

arm64: lds: move .got section out of .text

Currently, the .got section is placed within the output section .text.
However, when .got is non-empty, the SHF_WRITE flag is set for .text
when linked by lld. GNU ld recognizes .text as a special section and
ignores the SHF_WRITE flag. By renaming .text, we can also get the
SHF_WRITE flag.

The kernel has performed R_AARCH64_RELATIVE resolving very early, and can
then assume that .got is read-only. Let's move .got to the vmlinux_rodata
pseudo-segment.

As Ard Biesheuvel notes:

"This matters to consumers of the vmlinux ELF representation of the
kernel image, such as syzkaller, which disregards writable PT_LOAD
segments when resolving code symbols. The kernel itself does not care
about this distinction, but given that the GOT contains data and not
code, it does not require executable permissions, and therefore does
not belong in .text to begin with."

arm64: avoid executing padding bytes during kexec / hibernation

Currently we rely on the HIBERNATE_TEXT section starting with the entry
point to swsusp_arch_suspend_exit, and the KEXEC_TEXT section starting
with the entry point to arm64_relocate_new_kernel. In both cases we copy
the entire section into a dynamically-allocated page, and then later
branch to the start of this page.

SYM_FUNC_START() will align the function entry points to
CONFIG_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT, and when the linker later processes the
assembled code it will place padding bytes before the function entry
point if the location counter was not already sufficiently aligned. The
linker happens to use the value zero for these padding bytes.

This padding may end up being applied whenever CONFIG_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT
is greater than 4, which can be the case with
CONFIG_DEBUG_FORCE_FUNCTION_ALIGN_64B=y or
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS=y.

When such padding is applied, attempting to kexec or resume from
hibernate will result ina crash: the kernel will branch to the padding
bytes as the start of the dynamically-allocated page, and as those bytes
are zero they will decode as UDF #0, which reliably triggers an
UNDEFINED exception. For example:

Note: Unfortunately the code dump reports "bad PC value" as it attempts
to dump some instructions prior to the UDF (i.e. before the start of the
page), and terminates early upon a fault, obscuring the problem.

This patch fixes this issue by aligning the section starter markes to
CONFIG_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT using the ALIGN_FUNCTION() helper, which
ensures that the linker never needs to place padding bytes within the
section. Assertions are added to verify each section begins with the
function we expect, making our implicit requirement explicit.

In future it might be nice to rework the kexec and hibernation code to
decouple the section start from the entry point, but that involves much
more significant changes that come with a higher risk of error, so I've
tried to keep this fix as simple as possible for now.

arm64: head: cover entire kernel image in initial ID map

As a first step towards avoiding the need to create, tear down and
recreate the kernel virtual mapping with MMU and caches disabled, start
by expanding the ID map so it covers the page tables as well as all
executable code. This will allow us to populate the page tables with the
MMU and caches on, and call KASLR init code before setting up the
virtual mapping.

Since this ID map is only needed at boot, create it as a temporary set
of page tables, and populate the permanent ID map after enabling the MMU
and caches. While at it, switch to read-only attributes for the where
possible, as writable permissions are only needed for the initial kernel
page tables. Note that on 4k granule configurations, the permanent ID
map will now be reduced to a single page rather than a 2M block mapping.

arm64: extable: add `type` and `data` fields

Subsequent patches will add specialized handlers for fixups, in addition
to the simple PC fixup and BPF handlers we have today. In preparation,
this patch adds a new `type` field to struct exception_table_entry, and
uses this to distinguish the fixup and BPF cases. A `data` field is also
added so that subsequent patches can associate data specific to each
exception site (e.g. register numbers).

Handlers are named ex_handler_*() for consistency, following the exmaple
of x86. At the same time, get_ex_fixup() is split out into a helper so
that it can be used by other ex_handler_*() functions ins subsequent
patches.

This patch will increase the size of the exception tables, which will be
remedied by subsequent patches removing redundant fixup code. There
should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Since each entry is now 12 bytes in size, we must reduce the alignment
of each entry from `.align 3` (i.e. 8 bytes) to `.align 2` (i.e. 4
bytes), which is the natrual alignment of the `insn` and `fixup` fields.
The current 8-byte alignment is a holdover from when the `insn` and
`fixup` fields was 8 bytes, and while not harmful has not been necessary
since commit:

6c94f27ac847ff8e ("arm64: switch to relative exception tables")

Similarly, RO_EXCEPTION_TABLE_ALIGN is dropped to 4 bytes.

Concurrently with this patch, x86's exception table entry format is
being updated (similarly to a 12-byte format, with 32-bytes of absolute
data). Once both have been merged it should be possible to unify the
sorttable logic for the two.

arm64: vmlinux.ld.S: add assertion for tramp_pg_dir offset

Add TRAMP_SWAPPER_OFFSET and use that instead of hardcoding
the offset between swapper_pg_dir and tramp_pg_dir.

Then use TRAMP_SWAPPER_OFF

arm64: vmlinux.ld.S: add assertion for tramp_pg_dir offset

Add TRAMP_SWAPPER_OFFSET and use that instead of hardcoding
the offset between swapper_pg_dir and tramp_pg_dir.

Then use TRAMP_SWAPPER_OFFSET to assert that the offset is
correct at link time.

KVM: arm64: Generate hyp relocation data

Add a post-processing step to compilation of KVM nVHE hyp code which
calls a custom host tool (gen-hyprel) on the partially linked object
file (hyp sections' names prefixed).

The tool lists all R_AARCH64_ABS64 data relocations targeting hyp
sections and generates an assembly file that will form a new section
.hyp.reloc in the kernel binary. The new section contains an array of
32-bit offsets to the positions targeted by these relocations.

Since these addresses of those positions will not be determined until
linking of `vmlinux`, each 32-bit entry carries a R_AARCH64_PREL32
relocation with addend <section_base_sym> + <r_offset>. The linker of
`vmlinux` will therefore fill the slot accordingly.

This relocation data will be used at runtime to convert the kernel VAs
at those positions to hyp VAs.

KVM: arm64: Add .hyp.data..ro_after_init ELF section

Add rules for renaming the .data..ro_after_init ELF section in KVM nVHE
object files to .hyp.data..ro_after_init, linking it into the kernel
and mapping it in hyp at runtime.

The section is RW to the host, then mapped RO in hyp. The expectation is
that the host populates the variables in the section and they are never
changed by hyp afterwards.
