This makes it easier to add new instruction types.  Also it's hopefully
more robust since the compiler should warn about out-of-range enums.

Having DF escape is BAD(tm).

Linus; you suggested this one, but since DF really is only used from
ASM and the failure case is fairly obvious, do we really need this?

OTOH the patch is fairly small and simple, so let's just do this
to demonstrate objtool's superior awesomeness.

<content type='text'>
It is important that UACCESS regions are as small as possible;
furthermore the UACCESS state is not scheduled, so doing anything that
might directly call into the scheduler will cause random code to be
ran with UACCESS enabled.

Teach objtool too track UACCESS state and warn about any CALL made
while UACCESS is enabled. This very much includes the __fentry__()
and __preempt_schedule() calls.

Note that exceptions _do_ save/restore the UACCESS state, and therefore
they can drive preemption. This also means that all exception handlers
must have an otherwise redundant UACCESS disable instruction;
therefore ignore this warning for !STT_FUNC code (exception handlers
are not normal functions).

<content type='text'>
Fix the following Clang enum conversion warning:

  arch/x86/decode.c:141:20: error: implicit conversion from enumeration
  type 'enum op_src_type' to different enumeration
  type 'enum op_dest_type' [-Werror,-Wenum-conversion]

    op-&gt;dest.type = OP_SRC_REG;
		  ~ ^~~~~~~~~~

It just happened to work before because OP_SRC_REG and OP_DEST_REG have
the same value.

Arnd Bergmann reported a bunch of warnings like:

  crypto/jitterentropy.o: warning: objtool: jent_fold_time()+0x3b: call without frame pointer save/setup
  crypto/jitterentropy.o: warning: objtool: jent_stuck()+0x1d: call without frame pointer save/setup

  arch/x86/events/core.o: warning: objtool: events_ht_sysfs_show()+0x22: call without frame pointer save/setup

With certain rare configurations, GCC sometimes sets up the frame
pointer with:

  lea    (%rsp),%rbp

instead of:

  mov    %rsp,%rbp

The instructions are equivalent, so treat the former like the latter.

<title>objtool: Handle another GCC stack pointer adjustment bug</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0d0970eef3b03ef08b19da5bc3044410731cf38f</id>
<content type='text'>
The kbuild bot reported the following warning with GCC 4.4 and a
randconfig:

  net/socket.o: warning: objtool: compat_sock_ioctl()+0x1083: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+160 cfa2=-1+0

This is caused by another GCC non-optimization, where it backs up and
restores the stack pointer for no apparent reason:

    2f91:       48 89 e0                mov    %rsp,%rax
    2f94:       4c 89 e7                mov    %r12,%rdi
    2f97:       4c 89 f6                mov    %r14,%rsi
    2f9a:       ba 20 00 00 00          mov    $0x20,%edx
    2f9f:       48 89 c4                mov    %rax,%rsp

This issue would have been happily ignored before the following commit:

  dd88a0a0c861 ("objtool: Handle GCC stack pointer adjustment bug")

But now that objtool is paying attention to such stack pointer writes
to/from a register, it needs to understand them properly.  In this case
that means recognizing that the "mov %rsp, %rax" instruction is
potentially a backup of the stack pointer.

Arnd Bergmann reported the following warning with GCC 7.1.1:

  fs/fs_pin.o: warning: objtool: pin_kill()+0x139: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+88 cfa2=7+96

And the kbuild robot reported the following warnings with GCC 5.4.1:

  fs/fs_pin.o: warning: objtool: pin_kill()+0x182: return with modified stack frame
  fs/quota/dquot.o: warning: objtool: dquot_alloc_inode()+0x140: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+120 cfa2=7+128
  fs/quota/dquot.o: warning: objtool: dquot_free_inode()+0x11a: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+112 cfa2=7+120

Those warnings are caused by an unusual GCC non-optimization where it
uses an intermediate register to adjust the stack pointer.  It does:

  lea    0x8(%rsp), %rcx
  ...
  mov    %rcx, %rsp

Instead of the obvious:

  add    $0x8, %rsp

It makes no sense to use an intermediate register, so I opened a GCC bug
to track it:

  https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=81813

But it's not exactly a high-priority bug and it looks like we'll be
stuck with this issue for a while.  So for now we have to track register
values when they're loaded with stack pointer offsets.

This is kind of a big workaround for a tiny problem, but c'est la vie.
I hope to eventually create a GCC plugin to implement a big chunk of
objtool's functionality.  Hopefully at that point we'll be able to
remove of a lot of these GCC-isms from the objtool code.

With '-mtune=atom', which is enabled with CONFIG_MATOM=y, GCC uses some
unusual instructions for setting up the stack.

Instead of:

  mov %rsp, %rbp

it does:

  lea (%rsp), %rbp

And instead of:

  add imm, %rsp

it does:

  lea disp(%rsp), %rsp

Add support for these instructions to the objtool decoder.
