Will Deacon 0ead6914dc arm64: spectre: Prevent lockdep splat on v4 mitigation enable path
commit a2c42bbabbe260b7626d8459093631a6e16ee0ee upstream.

The Spectre-v4 workaround is re-configured when resuming from suspend,
as the firmware may have re-enabled the mitigation despite the user
previously asking for it to be disabled.

Enabling or disabling the workaround can result in an undefined
instruction exception on CPUs which implement PSTATE.SSBS but only allow
it to be configured by adjusting the SPSR on exception return. We handle
this by installing an 'undef hook' which effectively emulates the access.

Installing this hook requires us to take a couple of spinlocks both to
avoid corrupting the internal list of hooks but also to ensure that we
don't run into an unhandled exception. Unfortunately, when resuming from
suspend, we haven't yet called rcu_idle_exit() and so lockdep gets angry
about "suspicious RCU usage". In doing so, it tries to print a warning,
which leads it to get even more suspicious, this time about itself:

 |  rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
 |  RCU used illegally from extended quiescent state!
 |  1 lock held by swapper/0:

Prevent these splats by running __cpu_suspend_exit() with RCU watching.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
