This patch turns on the 16K page support in the kernel. We
support 48bit VA (4 level page tables) and 47bit VA (3 level
page tables).
With 16K we can map 128 entries using contiguous bit hint
at level 3 to map 2M using single TLB entry.
TODO: 16K supports 32 contiguous entries at level 2 to get us
1G(which is not yet supported by the infrastructure). That should
be a separate patch altogether.

We use !CONFIG_ARM64_64K_PAGES for CONFIG_ARM64_4K_PAGES
(and vice versa) in code. It all worked well, so far since
we only had two options. Now, with the introduction of 16K,
these cases will break. This patch cleans up the code to
use the required CONFIG symbol expression without the assumption
that !64K => 4K (and vice versa)

Our current switch_mm implementation suffers from a number of problems:
(1) The ASID allocator relies on IPIs to synchronise the CPUs on a
rollover event
(2) Because of (1), we cannot allocate ASIDs with interrupts disabled
and therefore make use of a TIF_SWITCH_MM flag to postpone the
actual switch to finish_arch_post_lock_switch
(3) We run context switch with a reserved (invalid) TTBR0 value, even
though the ASID and pgd are updated atomically
(4) We take a global spinlock (cpu_asid_lock) during context-switch
(5) We use h/w broadcast TLB operations when they are not required
(e.g. in flush_context)
This patch addresses these problems by rewriting the ASID algorithm to
match the bitmap-based arch/arm/ implementation more closely. This in
turn allows us to remove much of the complications surrounding switch_mm,
including the ugly thread flag.

As execution domain support is gone we can remove
signal translation from the signal code and remove
exec_domain from thread_info.

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.
Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.
It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

Make calls to ct_user_enter when the kernel is exited
and ct_user_exit when the kernel is entered (in el0_da,
el0_ia, el0_svc, el0_irq and all of the "error" paths).
These macros expand to function calls which will only work
properly if el0_sync and related code has been rearranged
(in a previous patch of this series).
The calls to ct_user_exit are made after hw debugging has been
enabled (enable_dbg_and_irq).
The call to ct_user_enter is made at the beginning of the
kernel_exit macro.
This patch is based on earlier work by Kevin Hilman.
Save/restore optimizations were also done by Kevin.

If a task gets scheduled out and back in again and nothing has touched
its FPSIMD state in the mean time, there is really no reason to reload
it from memory. Similarly, repeated calls to kernel_neon_begin() and
kernel_neon_end() will preserve and restore the FPSIMD state every time.
This patch defers the FPSIMD state restore to the last possible moment,
i.e., right before the task returns to userland. If a task does not return to
userland at all (for any reason), the existing FPSIMD state is preserved
and may be reused by the owning task if it gets scheduled in again on the
same CPU.
This patch adds two more functions to abstract away from straight FPSIMD
register file saves and restores:
- fpsimd_restore_current_state -> ensure current's FPSIMD state is loaded
- fpsimd_flush_task_state -> invalidate live copies of a task's FPSIMD state

The patch adds support for thread creation and context switching. The
context switching CPU specific code is introduced with the CPU support
patch (part of the arch/arm64/mm/proc.S file). AArch64 supports
ASID-tagged TLBs and the ASID can be either 8 or 16-bit wide (detectable
via the ID_AA64AFR0_EL1 register).
