Christophe Leroy 16132529ce powerpc/32s: Rework Kernel Userspace Access Protection
On book3s/32, KUAP is provided by toggling Ks bit in segment registers.
One segment register addresses 256M of virtual memory.

At the time being, KUAP implements a complex logic to apply the
unlock/lock on the exact number of segments covering the user range
to access, with saving the boundaries of the range of segments in
a member of thread struct.

But most if not all user accesses are within a single segment.

Rework KUAP with a different approach:
- Open only one segment, the one corresponding to the starting
address of the range to be accessed.
- If a second segment is involved, it will generate a page fault. The
segment will then be open by the page fault handler.

The kuap member of thread struct will now contain:
- The start address of the current on going user access, that will be
used to know which segment to lock at the end of the user access.
- ~0 when no user access is open
- ~1 when additionnal segments are opened by a page fault.

Then, at lock time
- When only one segment is open, close it.
- When several segments are open, close all user segments.

Almost 100% of the time, only one segment will be involved.

In interrupts, inline the function that unlock/lock all segments,
because not inlining them implies a lot of register save/restore.

With the patch, writing value 128 in userspace in perf_copy_attr() is
done with 16 instructions:

			3944: R_PPC_REL24	kuap_lock_all_ool

Before the patch it was 118 instructions. In reality only 42 are
executed in most cases, but GCC is not able to see that a properly
aligned user access cannot involve more than one segment.

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.
