Peter Zijlstra 320acaf84a x86/cpu: Elide KCSAN for cpu_has() and friends
[ Upstream commit a6a5eb269f6f3a2fe392f725a8d9052190c731e2 ]

As x86 uses the <asm-generic/bitops/instrumented-*.h> headers, the
regular forms of all bitops are instrumented with explicit calls to
KASAN and KCSAN checks. As these are explicit calls, these are not
suppressed by the noinstr function attribute.

This can result in calls to those check functions in noinstr code, which
objtool warns about:

vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: enter_from_user_mode+0x24: call to __kcsan_check_access() leaves .noinstr.text section
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: syscall_enter_from_user_mode+0x28: call to __kcsan_check_access() leaves .noinstr.text section
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: syscall_enter_from_user_mode_prepare+0x24: call to __kcsan_check_access() leaves .noinstr.text section
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: irqentry_enter_from_user_mode+0x24: call to __kcsan_check_access() leaves .noinstr.text section

Prevent this by using the arch_*() bitops, which are the underlying
bitops without explciit instrumentation.

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.
