Following the suggestions from Andrew Morton and Stephen Rothwell, Dont expand the ARCH list in kernel/gcov/Kconfig. Instead, define a ARCH_HAS_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL bool which architectures can enable. set ARCH_HAS_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL on Architectures where it was previously allowed + ARM64 which I tested.

Not all of the errata we have workarounds for apply necessarily to all SoCs, so people compiling a kernel for one very specific SoC may not need to patch the kernel. Introduce a new submenu in the "Platform selection" menu to allow people to turn off certain bugs if they are not affected. By default all of them are enabled. Normal users or distribution kernels shouldn't bother to deselect any bugs here, since the alternatives framework will take care of patching them in only if needed.

The SWP instruction was deprecated in the ARMv6 architecture. The ARMv7 multiprocessing extensions mandate that SWP/SWPB instructions are treated as undefined from reset, with the ability to enable them through the System Control Register SW bit. With ARMv8, the option to enable these instructions through System Control Register was dropped as well. To support legacy applications using these instructions, port the emulation of the SWP and SWPB instructions from the arm port to arm64.

Typically, providing support for legacy instructions requires emulating the behaviour of instructions whose encodings have become undefined. If the instructions haven't been removed from the architecture, there maybe an option in the implementation to turn on/off the support for these instructions. Create common infrastructure to support legacy instruction emulation. In addition to emulation, also provide an option to support hardware execution when supported. The default execution mode (one of undef, emulate, hw exeuction) is dependent on the state of the instruction (deprecated or obsolete) in the architecture and can specified at the time of registering the instruction handlers. The runtime state of the emulation can be controlled by writing to individual nodes in sysctl. The expected default behaviour is documented as part of this patch.

The arm64 architecture has the ability to exclusively load and store a pair of registers from an address (ldxp/stxp). Also the SLUB can take advantage of a cmpxchg_double implementation to avoid taking some locks. This patch provides an implementation of cmpxchg_double for 64-bit pairs, and activates the logic required for the SLUB to use these functions (HAVE_ALIGNED_STRUCT_PAGE and HAVE_CMPXCHG_DOUBLE). Also definitions of this_cpu_cmpxchg_8 and this_cpu_cmpxchg_double_8 are wired up to cmpxchg_local and cmpxchg_double_local (rather than the stock implementations that perform non-atomic operations with interrupts disabled) as they are used by the SLUB.

This patch implements 4 levels of translation tables since 3 levels of page tables with 4KB pages cannot support 40-bit physical address space described in [1] due to the following issue. It is a restriction that kernel logical memory map with 4KB + 3 levels (0xffffffc000000000-0xffffffffffffffff) cannot cover RAM region from 544GB to 1024GB in [1]. Specifically, ARM64 kernel fails to create mapping for this region in map_mem function since __phys_to_virt for this region reaches to address overflow. If SoC design follows the document, [1], over 32GB RAM would be placed from 544GB. Even 64GB system is supposed to use the region from 544GB to 576GB for only 32GB RAM. Naturally, it would reach to enable 4 levels of page tables to avoid hacking __virt_to_phys and __phys_to_virt. However, it is recommended 4 levels of page table should be only enabled if memory map is too sparse or there is about 512GB RAM.

On AArch64, audit is supported through generic lib/audit.c and compat_audit.c, and so this patch adds arch specific definitions required.

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.
