We implement regs_set_return_value() and override_function_with_return()
for this purpose.
On powerpc, a return from a function (blr) just branches to the location
contained in the link register. So, we can just update pt_regs rather
than redirecting execution to a dummy function that returns.

In the recent commit 8b78fdb045de ("powerpc/time: Use
clockevents_register_device(), fixing an issue with large
decrementer") we changed the way we initialise the decrementer
clockevent(s).
We no longer initialise the mult & shift values of
decrementer_clockevent itself.
This has the effect of breaking PR KVM, because it uses those values
in kvmppc_emulate_dec(). The symptom is guest kernels spin forever
mid-way through boot.
For now fix it by assigning back to decrementer_clockevent the mult
and shift values.

I'm pretty sure this is dead code, it's only used by the a.out core
dump code, and we don't support a.out. We should remove it.
But while it's in the tree it should be using the ABI version of
pt_regs which is called user_pt_regs in the kernel, because the whole
struct is written to the core dump and so its size shouldn't change.
Note this isn't a uapi header so we don't need an ifdef.

My recent patch to split pt_regs between user and kernel missed
the usage in struct sigcontext.
Because this is a user visible struct it should be using the user
visible definition, which when we're building for the kernel is called
struct user_pt_regs.
As far as I can see this hasn't actually caused a bug (yet), because
we don't use the sizeof() the sigcontext->regs anywhere. But we should
still fix it to avoid confusion and future bugs.

Back when I added -Werror in commit ba55bd74360e ("powerpc: Add
configurable -Werror for arch/powerpc") I did it by adding it to most
of the arch Makefiles.
At the time we excluded math-emu, because apparently it didn't build
cleanly. But that seems to have been fixed somewhere in the interim.
So move the -Werror addition to the top-level of the arch, this saves
us from repeating it in every Makefile and means we won't forget to
add it to any new sub-dirs.

This is a nice cleanup, arch/powerpc/Makefile is long and messy so
moving this out helps a little.
It also allows us to do:
$ make arch/powerpc
Which can be helpful if you just want to compile test some changes to
arch code and not link everything.
Finally it also gives us a single place to do subdir-cc-flags
assignments which affect the whole of arch/powerpc, which we will do
in a future patch.

Adds a driver that implements support for enabling and accessing PAPR
SCM regions. Unfortunately due to how the PAPR interface works we can't
use the existing of_pmem driver (yet) because:
a) The guest is required to use the H_SCM_BIND_MEM h-call to add
add the SCM region to it's physical address space, and
b) There is currently no mechanism for relating a bare of_pmem region
to the backing DIMM (or not-a-DIMM for our case).

Currently we limit the max addressable memory to 128TB. This patch increase the
limit to 2PB. We can have devices like nvdimm which adds memory above 512TB
limit.
We still don't support regular system ram above 512TB. One of the challenge with
that is the percpu allocator, that allocates per node memory and use the max
distance between them as the percpu offsets. This means with large gap in
address space ( system ram above 1PB) we will run out of vmalloc space to map
the percpu allocation.
In order to support addressable memory above 512TB, kernel should be able to
linear map this range. To do that with hash translation we now add 4 context
to kernel linear map region. Our per context addressable range is 512TB. We
still keep VMALLOC and VMEMMAP region to old size. SLB miss handlers is updated
to validate these limit.
We also limit this update to SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP and SPARSEMEM_EXTREME

slb_flush_and_rebolt() is misleading, it is called in virtual mode, so
it can not possibly change the stack, so it should not be touching the
shadow area. And since vmalloc is no longer bolted, it should not
change any bolted mappings at all.
Change the name to slb_flush_and_restore_bolted(), and have it just
load the kernel stack from what's currently in the shadow SLB area.

When switching processes, currently all user SLBEs are cleared, and a
few (exec_base, pc, and stack) are preloaded. In trivial testing with
small apps, this tends to miss the heap and low 256MB segments, and it
will also miss commonly accessed segments on large memory workloads.
Add a simple round-robin preload cache that just inserts the last SLB
miss into the head of the cache and preloads those at context switch
time. Every 256 context switches, the oldest entry is removed from the
cache to shrink the cache and require fewer slbmte if they are unused.
Much more could go into this, including into the SLB entry reclaim
side to track some LRU information etc, which would require a study of
large memory workloads. But this is a simple thing we can do now that
is an obvious win for common workloads.
With the full series, process switching speed on the context_switch
benchmark on POWER9/hash (with kernel speculation security masures
disabled) increases from 140K/s to 178K/s (27%).
POWER8 does not change much (within 1%), it's unclear why it does not
see a big gain like POWER9.
Booting to busybox init with 256MB segments has SLB misses go down
from 945 to 69, and with 1T segments 900 to 21. These could almost all
be eliminated by preloading a bit more carefully with ELF binary
loading.

This patch moves SLB miss handlers completely to C, using the standard
exception handler macros to set up the stack and branch to C.
This can be done because the segment containing the kernel stack is
always bolted, so accessing it with relocation on will not cause an
SLB exception.
Arbitrary kernel memory must not be accessed when handling kernel
space SLB misses, so care should be taken there. However user SLB
misses can access any kernel memory, which can be used to move some
fields out of the paca (in later patches).
User SLB misses could quite easily reconcile IRQs and set up a first
class kernel environment and exit via ret_from_except, however that
doesn't seem to be necessary at the moment, so we only do that if a
bad fault is encountered.

PPR is the odd register out when it comes to interrupt handling, it is
saved in current->thread.ppr while all others are saved on the stack.
The difficulty with this is that accessing thread.ppr can cause a SLB
fault, but the SLB fault handler implementation in C change had
assumed the normal exception entry handlers would not cause an SLB
fault.
Fix this by allocating room in the interrupt stack to save PPR.

Now that we've split the user & kernel versions of pt_regs we need to
be more careful in the ptrace code.
For now we've ensured the location of the fields in both structs is
the same, so most of the ptrace code doesn't need updating.
But there are a few places where we use sizeof(pt_regs), and these
will be wrong as soon as we increase the size of the kernel structure.
So flip them all to use sizeof(user_pt_regs).

We use a shared definition for struct pt_regs in uapi/asm/ptrace.h.
That means the layout of the structure is ABI, ie. we can't change it.
That would be fine if it was only used to describe the user-visible
register state of a process, but it's also the struct we use in the
kernel to describe the registers saved in an interrupt frame.
We'd like more flexibility in the content (and possibly layout) of the
kernel version of the struct, but currently that's not possible.
So split the definition into a user-visible definition which remains
unchanged, and a kernel internal one.
At the moment they're still identical, and we check that at build
time. That's because we have code (in ptrace etc.) that assumes that
they are the same. We will fix that code in future patches, and then
we can break the strict symmetry between the two structs.
