Optimize this_cpu_* functions for 64 bit by making use of new instructions
that came with the interlocked-access facility 1 (load-and-*) and the
general-instructions-extension facility (asi, agsi).
That way we get rid of the compare-and-swap loop in most cases.
Code size reduction (defconfig, -march=z196): 11,555 bytes.

Fix the following bugs:
- When returning from a signal the signal handler copies the saved psw mask
from user space and uses parts of it. Especially it restores the RI bit
unconditionally. If however the machine doesn't support RI, or RI is
disabled for the task, the last lpswe instruction which returns to user
space will generate a specification exception.
To fix this check if the RI bit is allowed to be set and kill the task
if not.
- In the compat mode signal handler code the RI bit of the psw mask gets
propagated to the mask of the return psw: if user space enables RI in the
signal handler, RI will also be enabled after the signal handler is
finished.
This is a different behaviour than with 64 bit tasks. So change this to
match the 64 bit semantics, which restores the original RI bit value.
- Fix similar oddities within the ptrace code as well.

The FPC_VALID_MASK has been used to check the validity of the value
to be loaded into the floating-point-control register. With the
introduction of the floating-point extension facility and the
decimal-floating-point additional bits have been defined which need
to be checked in a non straight forward way. So far these bits have
been ignored which can cause an incorrect results for decimal-
floating-point operations, e.g. an incorrect rounding mode to be
set after signal return.
The static check with the FPC_VALID_MASK is replaced with a trial
load of the floating-point-control value, see test_fp_ctl.
In addition an information leak with the padding word between the
floating-point-control word and the floating-point registers in
the s390_fp_regs is fixed.

If a machine has no hardware support for the xts-aes or ctr-aes algorithms
they are not registered in aes_s390_init. But aes_s390_fini unconditionally

Steven Rostedt noted that s390 is the only architecture which calls
ftrace_push_return_trace() before ftrace_graph_entry() and therefore has
the small advantage that trace.depth gets initialized automatically.
However this small advantage isn't worth the difference and possible subtle
breakage that may result from this.
So change s390 to have the same function call order like all other
architectures: first ftrace_graph_entry(), then ftrace_push_return_trace()

The prolog of functions generated by the bpf jit compiler uses an
instruction sequence with an "ahi" instruction to create stack space
instead of using an "aghi" instruction. Using the 32-bit "ahi" is not
wrong as the stack we are operating on is an order-4 allocation which
is always aligned to 16KB. But it is more consistent to use an "aghi"
as the stack pointer is a 64-bit value.

find_first_bit_left() and friends have nothing to do with the normal
LSB0 bit numbering for big endian machines used in Linux (least
significant bit has bit number 0).
Instead they use MSB0 bit numbering, where the most signficant bit has
bit number 0. So rename find_first_bit_left() and friends to
find_first_bit_inv(), to avoid any confusion.
Also provide inv versions of set_bit, clear_bit and test_bit.
This also removes the confusing use of e.g. set_bit() in airq.c which
uses a "be_to_le" bit number conversion, which could imply that instead
set_bit_le() could be used. But that is entirely wrong since the _le
bitops variant uses yet another bit numbering scheme.

Just like all other architectures we should use out-of-line find bit
operations, since the inline variant bloat the size of the kernel image.
And also like all other architecures we should only supply optimized
variants of the __ffs, ffs, etc. primitives.
Therefore this patch removes the inlined s390 find bit functions and uses
the generic out-of-line variants instead.
The optimization of the primitives follows with the next patch.
With this patch also the functions find_first_bit_left() and
find_next_bit_left() have been reimplemented, since logically, they are
nothing else but a find_first_bit()/find_next_bit() implementation that
use an inverted __fls() instead of __ffs().
Also the restriction that these functions only work on machines which
support the "flogr" instruction is gone now.
This reduces the size of the kernel image (defconfig, -march=z9-109)
by 144,482 bytes.
Alone the size of the function build_sched_domains() gets reduced from
7 KB to 3,5 KB.
We also git rid of unused functions like find_first_bit_le()...

Since zEC12 we have the interlocked-access facility 2 which allows to
use the instructions ni/oi/xi to update a single byte in storage with
compare-and-swap semantics.
So change set_bit(), clear_bit() and change_bit() to generate such code
instead of a compare-and-swap loop (or using the load-and-* instruction
family), if possible.
This reduces the text segment by yet another 8KB (defconfig).
Alternatively the long displacement variants niy/oiy/xiy could have
been used, but the extended displacement field is usually not needed
and therefore would only increase the size of the text segment again.

Remove CONFIG_SMP from bitops code. This reduces the C code significantly
but also generates better code for the SMP case.
This means that for !CONFIG_SMP set_bit() and friends now also have
compare and swap semantics (read: more code). However nobody really cares
for !CONFIG_SMP and this is the trade-off to simplify the SMP code which we
do care about.
The non-atomic bitops like __set_bit() now generate also better code
because the old code did not have a __builtin_contant_p() check for the
CONFIG_SMP case and therefore always generated the inline assembly variant.
However the inline assemblies for the non-atomic case now got completely
removed since gcc can produce better code, which accesses less memory
operands.
test_bit() got also a bit simplified since it did have a
__builtin_constant_p() check, however two identical code pathes for each
case (written differently).
In result this mainly reduces the to be maintained code but is not very
relevant for code generation, since there are not many non-atomic bitops
usages that we care about.
(code reduction defconfig kernel image before/after: 560 bytes).

In result this means that no -march compiler option is set when an

The kernel compile will afterwards succeed but with the default

The result of the store-clock-fast (STCKF) instruction is a bit fuzzy.
It can happen that the value stored on one CPU is smaller than the value
stored on another CPU, although the order of the stores is the other
way around. This can cause deltas of get_tod_clock() values to become
negative when they should not be.
We need to be more careful with store-clock-fast, this patch partially
reverts git commit e4b7b4238e666682555461fa52eecd74652f36bb "time:
always use stckf instead of stck if available". The get_tod_clock()
function now uses the store-clock-extended (STCKE) instruction.
get_tod_clock_fast() can be used if the fuzziness of store-clock-fast
is acceptable e.g. for wait loops local to a CPU.

The return value of copy_siginfo_(to|from)_user32() gets passed to
user space, however we do not convert a positive return value from
copy_(to|from)_user to -EFAULT.
Therefore these functions (and the calling system calls) my incorrectly
return a positive number (bytes not copied) instead of -EFAULT.

For machines without enhanced supression on protection the software
dirty bit code forces the pte dirty bit and clears the page protection
bit in pgste_set_pte. This is done for all pte types, the check for
present ptes is missing. As a result swap ptes and other not-present
ptes can get corrupted.
Add a check for the _PAGE_PRESENT bit to pgste_set_pte before modifying
the pte value.
