<title>kernel.h: drop hex.h and update all hex.h users</title>

Remove &lt;linux/hex.h&gt; from &lt;linux/kernel.h&gt; and update all users/callers of
hex.h interfaces to directly #include &lt;linux/hex.h&gt; as part of the process
of putting kernel.h on a diet.

Removing hex.h from kernel.h means that 36K C source files don't have to
pay the price of parsing hex.h for the roughly 120 C source files that
need it.

This change has been build-tested with allmodconfig on most ARCHes.  Also,
all users/callers of &lt;linux/hex.h&gt; in the entire source tree have been
updated if needed (if not already #included).

<title>kgdbts: mark kgdbts_option_setup() with __init to free init memory</title>

<content type='text'>
The kgdbts_option_setup() function is invoked only once early in boot
via the __setup("kgdbts=", ...) mechanism to parse the kernel
command-line option.After init is complete, it is never called again.

Annotating it with __init places the function in the .init.text section,
enabling the kernel to free its code memory during the init memory
cleanup phase (free_initmem()). This reduces the kernel’s runtime
memory footprint with no functional side effects.

<content type='text'>
The test for access watchpoints (hw_access_break_test) was broken
(always failed) because the compiler optimized out the write to the
static helper variable (hw_break_val2), as it is never read anywhere.
This resulted in the target variable (hw_break_val) not being accessed
and thus the breakpoint not being triggered.

Remove the helper variable (hw_break_val2), and use READ_ONCE to force
reading the target variable (hw_break_val).

__setup() handlers should return 1 to indicate that the boot option
has been handled. A return of 0 causes the boot option/value to be
listed as an Unknown kernel parameter and added to init's (limited)
environment strings. So return 1 from kgdbts_option_setup().

Unknown kernel command line parameters "BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc7
  kgdboc=kbd kgdbts=", will be passed to user space.

 Run /sbin/init as init process
   with arguments:
     /sbin/init
   with environment:
     HOME=/
     TERM=linux
     BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc7
     kgdboc=kbd
     kgdbts=

40cc3a80bb42 ("kgdb: fix gcc-11 warning on indentation") tried to fix up
the gcc-11 complaints in this file by just reformatting the #defines.
That worked for gcc 11.1.0, but in gcc 11.1.1 as shipped by Fedora 34,
the warning came back for one of the #defines.

Fix this up again by putting { } around the if statement, now it is
quiet again.

<title>kgdbts: Switch to do_sys_openat2() for breakpoint testing</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1114ab22e417427d8dced25be02c15f479de8d41</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently kgdbts can get stuck waiting for do_sys_open() to be called
in some of the current tests. This is because C compilers often
automatically inline this function, which is a very thin wrapper around
do_sys_openat2(), into some of its callers. gcc-10 does this on (at least)
both x86 and arm64.

We can fix the test suite by placing the breakpoints on do_sys_openat2()
instead since that isn't (currently) inlined. However do_sys_openat2() is
a static function so we cannot simply use an addressof. Since we are
testing debug machinery it is acceptable to use kallsyms to lookup a
suitable address because this is more or less what kdb does in the same
circumstances. Re-implement lookup_addr() to be based on kallsyms rather
than function pointers.

gcc-11 starts warning about misleading indentation inside of macros:

drivers/misc/kgdbts.c: In function ‘kgdbts_break_test’:

drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:105:17: note: ...this statement, but the latter is misleadingly indented as if it were guarded by the ‘if’

The code looks correct to me, so just reindent it for readability.

The old _do_fork() helper is removed in favor of the new kernel_clone() helper.
The latter adheres to naming conventions for kernel internal syscall helpers.
