Patch series "mm: Care about shadow stack guard gap when getting an
unmapped area", v2.

As covered in the commit log for c44357c2e76b ("x86/mm: care about shadow
stack guard gap during placement") our current mmap() implementation does
not take care to ensure that a new mapping isn't placed with existing
mappings inside it's own guard gaps.  This is particularly important for
shadow stacks since if two shadow stacks end up getting placed adjacent to
each other then they can overflow into each other which weakens the
protection offered by the feature.

On x86 there is a custom arch_get_unmapped_area() which was updated by the
above commit to cover this case by specifying a start_gap for allocations
with VM_SHADOW_STACK.  Both arm64 and RISC-V have equivalent features and
use the generic implementation of arch_get_unmapped_area() so let's make
the equivalent change there so they also don't get shadow stack pages
placed without guard pages.  The arm64 and RISC-V shadow stack
implementations are currently on the list:

   https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240829-arm64-gcs-v12-0-42fec94743
   https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240403234054.2020347-1-debug@rivosinc.com/

Given the addition of the use of vm_flags in the generic implementation we
also simplify the set of possibilities that have to be dealt with in the
core code by making arch_get_unmapped_area() take vm_flags as standard. 
This is a bit invasive since the prototype change touches quite a few
architectures but since the parameter is ignored the change is
straightforward, the simplification for the generic code seems worth it.


This patch (of 3):

When we introduced arch_get_unmapped_area_vmflags() in 961148704acd ("mm:
introduce arch_get_unmapped_area_vmflags()") we did so as part of properly
supporting guard pages for shadow stacks on x86_64, which uses a custom
arch_get_unmapped_area().  Equivalent features are also present on both
arm64 and RISC-V, both of which use the generic implementation of
arch_get_unmapped_area() and will require equivalent modification there. 
Rather than continue to deal with having two versions of the functions
let's bite the bullet and have all implementations of
arch_get_unmapped_area() take vm_flags as a parameter.

The new parameter is currently ignored by all implementations other than
x86.  The only caller that doesn't have a vm_flags available is
mm_get_unmapped_area(), as for the x86 implementation and the wrapper used
on other architectures this is modified to supply no flags.

No functional changes.

The dma_base, size and iommu arguments are only used by ARM, and can
now easily be deduced from the device itself, so there's no need to pass
them through the callchain as well.

<title>treewide: use initializer for struct vm_unmapped_area_info</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b80fa3cbb78c0fbe5039682919d97a0dbe05ae7c</id>
<content type='text'>
Future changes will need to add a new member to struct
vm_unmapped_area_info.  This would cause trouble for any call site that
doesn't initialize the struct.  Currently every caller sets each member
manually, so if new ones are added they will be uninitialized and the core
code parsing the struct will see garbage in the new member.

It could be possible to initialize the new member manually to 0 at each
call site.  This and a couple other options were discussed.  Having some
struct vm_unmapped_area_info instances not zero initialized will put those
sites at risk of feeding garbage into vm_unmapped_area(), if the
convention is to zero initialize the struct and any new field addition
missed a call site that initializes each field manually.  So it is useful
to do things similar across the kernel.

The consensus (see links) was that in general the best way to accomplish
taking into account both code cleanliness and minimizing the chance of
introducing bugs, was to do C99 static initialization.  As in: struct
vm_unmapped_area_info info = {};

With this method of initialization, the whole struct will be zero
initialized, and any statements setting fields to zero will be unneeded. 
The change should not leave cleanup at the call sides.

While iterating though the possible solutions a few archs kindly acked
other variations that still zero initialized the struct.  These sites have
been modified in previous changes using the pattern acked by the
respective arch.

So to be reduce the chance of bugs via uninitialized fields, perform a
tree wide change using the consensus for the best general way to do this
change.  Use C99 static initializing to zero the struct and remove and
statements that simply set members to zero.

This is not being used to pass ops, it is just a way to tell if an
iommu driver was probed. These days this can be detected directly via
device_iommu_mapped(). Call device_iommu_mapped() in the two places that
need to check it and remove the iommu parameter everywhere.

Legacy ARC700 processors (first generation of MMU enabled ARC cores) had
VIPT cached which could be configured such that they could alias.
Corresponding support in kernel (with all the obnoxious cache flush overhead)
was added in ARC port 10 years ago to support 1 silicon. That is long bygone
and we can let it RIP.

Pull ARC updates from Vineet Gupta:

 - fixes for -Wmissing-prototype warnings

 - missing compiler barrier in relaxed atomics

 - some uaccess simplification, declutter

 - removal of massive glocal struct cpuinfo_arc from bootlog code

 - __switch_to consolidation (removal of inline asm variant)

 - use GP to cache task pointer (vs. r25)

 - misc rework of entry code
