commit e9ee186bb735bfc17fa81dbc9aebf268aee5b41e upstream.
KVM has a one instruction window where it will allow an SError exception
to be consumed by the hypervisor without treating it as a hypervisor bug.
This is used to consume asynchronous external abort that were caused by
the guest.
As we are about to add another location that survives unexpected exceptions,
generalise this code to make it behave like the host's extable.
KVM's version has to be mapped to EL2 to be accessible on nVHE systems.
The SError vaxorcism code is a one instruction window, so has two entries
in the extable. Because the KVM code is copied for VHE and nVHE, we end up
with four entries, half of which correspond with code that isn't mapped.

[ Upstream commit f7b93d42945cc71e1346dd5ae07c59061d56745e ]
When building very large kernels, the logic that emits replacement
sequences for alternatives fails when relative branches are present
in the code that is emitted into the .altinstr_replacement section
and patched in at the original site and fixed up. The reason is that
the linker will insert veneers if relative branches go out of range,
and due to the relative distance of the .altinstr_replacement from
the .text section where its branch targets usually live, veneers
may be emitted at the end of the .altinstr_replacement section, with
the relative branches in the sequence pointed at the veneers instead
of the actual target.
The alternatives patching logic will attempt to fix up the branch to
point to its original target, which will be the veneer in this case,
but given that the patch site is likely to be far away as well, it
will be out of range and so patching will fail. There are other cases
where these veneers are problematic, e.g., when the target of the
branch is in .text while the patch site is in .init.text, in which
case putting the replacement sequence inside .text may not help either.
So let's use subsections to emit the replacement code as closely as
possible to the patch site, to ensure that veneers are only likely to
be emitted if they are required at the patch site as well, in which
case they will be in range for the replacement sequence both before
and after it is transported to the patch site.
This will prevent alternative sequences in non-init code from being
released from memory after boot, but this is tolerable given that the
entire section is only 512 KB on an allyesconfig build (which weighs in
at 500+ MB for the entire Image). Also, note that modules today carry
the replacement sequences in non-init sections as well, and any of
those that target init code will be emitted into init sections after
this change.
This fixes an early crash when booting an allyesconfig kernel on a
system where any of the alternatives sequences containing relative
branches are activated at boot (e.g., ARM64_HAS_PAN on TX2)

[ Upstream commit 9d2d75ede59bc1edd8561f2ee9d4702a5ea0ae30 ]
Prior to commit 8eb7e28d4c642c31 ("arm64/mm: move runtime pgds to
rodata"), idmap_pgd_dir, tramp_pg_dir, reserved_ttbr0, swapper_pg_dir,
and init_pg_dir were contiguous at the end of the kernel image. The
maintenance at the end of __create_page_tables assumed these were
contiguous, and affected everything from the start of idmap_pg_dir
to the end of init_pg_dir.
That commit moved all but init_pg_dir into the .rodata section, with
other data placed between idmap_pg_dir and init_pg_dir, but did not
update the maintenance. Hence the maintenance is performed on much
more data than necessary (but as the bootloader previously made this
clean to the PoC there is no functional problem).
As we only alter idmap_pg_dir, and init_pg_dir, we only need to perform
maintenance for these. As the other dirs are in .rodata, the bootloader
will have initialised them as expected and cleaned them to the PoC. The
kernel will initialize them as necessary after enabling the MMU.
This patch reworks the maintenance to only cover the idmap_pg_dir and
init_pg_dir to avoid this unnecessary work.
