Remove the wp_works_ok member of struct cpuinfo_x86. It's an
optimization back from Linux v0.99 times where we had no fixup support
yet and did the CR0.WP test via special code in the page fault handler.
The < 0 test was an optimization to not do the special casing for each
NULL ptr access violation but just for the first one doing the WP test.
Today it serves no real purpose as the test no longer needs special code
in the page fault handler and the only call side -- mem_init() -- calls
it just once, anyway. However, Xen pre-initializes it to 1, to skip the
test.
Doing the test again for Xen should be no issue at all, as even the
commit introducing skipping the test (commit d560bc6157 ("x86, xen:
Suppress WP test on Xen")) mentioned it being ban aid only. And, in
fact, testing the patch on Xen showed nothing breaks.
The pre-fixup times are long gone and with the removal of the fallback
handling code in commit a5c2a893db ("x86, 386 removal: Remove
CONFIG_X86_WP_WORKS_OK") the kernel requires a working CR0.WP anyway.
So just get rid of the "optimization" and do the test unconditionally.

But 90% of the usage is trivial:

arch/x86/xen/setup.c: e820__update_table(xen_e820_table.entries, ARRAY_SIZE(xen_e820_table.entries),
as it only uses an exiting struct e820_table's entries array, its size and
its current number of entries as input and output arguments.
Only one use is non-trivial:
arch/x86/kernel/e820.c: e820__update_table(boot_params.e820_table, ARRAY_SIZE(boot_params.e820_table), &new_nr);
... which call updates the E820 table in the zeropage in-situ, and the layout there does not
match that of 'struct e820_table' (in particular nr_entries is at a different offset,
hardcoded by the boot protocol).
Simplify all this by introducing a low level __e820__update_table() API that
the zeropage update call can use, and simplifying the main e820__update_table()
call signature down to:
int e820__update_table(struct e820_table *table);
This visibly simplifies all the call sites:
arch/x86/include/asm/e820/api.h:extern int e820__update_table(struct e820_table *table);

We have these three related functions:
extern void e820_add_region(u64 start, u64 size, int type);
extern u64 e820_update_range(u64 start, u64 size, unsigned old_type, unsigned new_type);
extern u64 e820_remove_range(u64 start, u64 size, unsigned old_type, int checktype);
But it's not clear from the naming that they are 3 operations based around the
same 'memory range' concept. Rename them to better signal this, and move
the prototypes next to each other:
extern void e820__range_add (u64 start, u64 size, int type);
extern u64 e820__range_update(u64 start, u64 size, unsigned old_type, unsigned new_type);
extern u64 e820__range_remove(u64 start, u64 size, unsigned old_type, int checktype);
Note that this improved organization of the functions shows another problem that was easy
to miss before: sometimes the E820 entry type is 'int', sometimes 'unsigned int' - but this
will be fixed in a separate patch.

sanitize_e820_table() is a minor misnomer in that it suggests that
the E820 table requires sanitizing - which implies that it will only
do anything if the E820 table is irregular (not sane).
That is wrong, because sanitize_e820_table() also does a very regular
sorting of the E820 table, which is a necessity in the basic
append-only flow of E820 updates the kernel is allowed to perform to
it.
So rename it to e820__update_table() to include that purpose as well.
This also lines up all the table-update functions into a coherent
naming family:
int e820__update_table(struct e820_entry *biosmap, int max_nr_map, u32 *pnr_map);
void e820__update_table_print(void);
void e820__update_table_firmware(void);

early_reserve_e820() is an early hack for kexec that does a limited fixup of the
mptable and passes it to the kexec kernel as if it was the real thing.
For this it needs to allocate memory - but no memory allocator is available yet
beyond the memblock allocator, so early_reserve_e820() is really a wrapper
around memblock_alloc() plus a hack to update the e820_table_firmware entries.
The name 'reserve' is really a bit of a misnomer, as 'reserved' memory typically
means memory completely inaccessible to the kernel - while here what we want to do
is a special RAM allocation for our own purposes and insert that as RAM_RESERVED.
Rename the function to e820__memblock_alloc_reserved() to better signal this dual
purpose, plus document it better, which was omitted when it was merged. The barely
comprehensible and cryptic comment:
/*
* pre allocated 4k and reserved it in memblock and e820_table_firmware
*/
u64 __init e820__memblock_alloc_reserved(u64 size, u64 align)
... does not count as documentation, replace it with:
/*
* Allocate the requested number of bytes with the requsted alignment
* and return (the physical address) to the caller. Also register this
* range in the 'firmware' E820 table.
*
* This allows kexec to fake a new mptable, as if it came from the real
* system.

So memblock_x86_fill() is another E820 code misnomer:
- nothing in its name tells us that it's part of the E820 subsystem ...
- The 'fill' wording is ambiguous and doesn't tell us whether it's a single
entry or some process - while the _real_ purpose of the function is hidden,
which is to do a complete setup of the (platform independent) memblock regions.
So rename it accordingly, to e820__memblock_setup().
Also translate this incomprehensible and misleading comment:
/*
* EFI may have more than 128 entries
* We are safe to enable resizing, beause memblock_x86_fill()
* is rather later for x86
*/
memblock_allow_resize();
The worst aspect of this comment isn't even the sloppy typos, but that it
casually mentions a '128' number with no explanation, which makes one lead
to the assumption that this is related to the well-known limit of a maximum
of 128 E820 entries passed via legacy bootloaders.
But no, the _real_ meaning of 128 here is that of the memblock subsystem,
which too happens to have a 128 entries limit for very early memblock
regions (which is unrelated to E820), via INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS ...
So change the comment to a more comprehensible version:
/*
* The bootstrap memblock region count maximum is 128 entries
* (INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS), but EFI might pass us more E820 entries
* than that - so allow memblock resizing.
*
* This is safe, because this call happens pretty late during x86 setup,
* so we know about reserved memory regions already. (This is important
* so that memblock resizing does no stomp over reserved areas.)

So the 'e820_table_saved' is a bit of a misnomer that hides its real purpose.
At first sight the name suggests that it's some sort save/restore mechanism,
as this is how we typically name such facilities in the kernel.
But that is not so, e820_table_saved is the original firmware version of the
e820 table, not modified by the kernel. This table is displayed in the
/sys/firmware/memmap file, and it's also used by the hibernation code to
calculate a physical memory layout MD5 fingerprint checksum which is
invariant of the kernel.
So rename it to 'e820_table_firmware' and update all the comments to better
describe the main e820 data strutures.
Also rename:
'initial_e820_table_saved' => 'e820_table_firmware_init'
'e820_update_range_saved' => 'e820_update_range_firmware'
... to better match the new nomenclature.

The 'e820entry' and 'e820map' names have various annoyances:
- the missing underscore departs from the usual kernel style
and makes the code look weird,
- in the past I kept confusing the 'map' with the 'entry', because
a 'map' is ambiguous in that regard,
- it's not really clear from the 'e820map' that this is a regular
C array.
Rename them to 'struct e820_entry' and 'struct e820_array' accordingly.
( Leave the legacy UAPI header alone but do the rename in the bootparam.h
and e820/types.h file - outside tools relying on these defines should
either adjust their code, or should use the legacy header, or should
create their private copies for the definitions. )

The recent changes, which forced the registration of the boot cpu on UP
systems, which do not have ACPI tables, have been fixed for systems w/o
local APIC, but left a wreckage for systems which have neither ACPI nor
mptables, but the CPU has an APIC, e.g. virtualbox.
The boot process crashes in prefill_possible_map() as it wants to register
the boot cpu, which needs to access the local apic, but the local APIC is
not yet mapped.
There is no reason why init_apic_mapping() can't be invoked before
prefill_possible_map(). So instead of playing another silly early mapping
game, as the ACPI/mptables code does, we just move init_apic_mapping()
before the call to prefill_possible_map().
In hindsight, I should have noticed that combination earlier.
Sorry for the churn (also in stable)!

Pull EFI updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Main changes in this cycle were:
- Refactor the EFI memory map code into architecture neutral files
and allow drivers to permanently reserve EFI boot services regions
on x86, as well as ARM/arm64. (Matt Fleming)
- Add ARM support for the EFI ESRT driver. (Ard Biesheuvel)
- Make the EFI runtime services and efivar API interruptible by
swapping spinlocks for semaphores. (Sylvain Chouleur)
- Provide the EFI identity mapping for kexec which allows kexec to
work on SGI/UV platforms with requiring the "noefi" kernel command
line parameter. (Alex Thorlton)
- Add debugfs node to dump EFI page tables on arm64. (Ard Biesheuvel)
- Merge the EFI test driver being carried out of tree until now in
the FWTS project. (Ivan Hu)
- Expand the list of flags for classifying EFI regions as "RAM" on
arm64 so we align with the UEFI spec. (Ard Biesheuvel)
- Optimise out the EFI mixed mode if it's unsupported (CONFIG_X86_32)
or disabled (CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=n) and switch the early EFI boot
services function table for direct calls, alleviating us from
having to maintain the custom function table. (Lukas Wunner)
- Miscellaneous cleanups and fixes"

Commit 7b02d53e7852 ("efi: Allow drivers to reserve boot services forever")
introduced a new efi_mem_reserve to reserve the boot services memory
regions forever. This reservation involves allocating a new EFI memory
range descriptor. However, allocation can only succeed if there is memory
available for the allocation. Otherwise, error such as the following may
occur:
esrt: Reserving ESRT space from 0x000000003dd6a000 to 0x000000003dd6a010.

This situation can be avoided if we call efi_esrt_init after memblock has
memory regions for the allocation.
Also, the EFI ESRT driver makes use of early_memremap'pings. Therfore, we
do not want to defer efi_esrt_init for too long. We must call such function
while calls to early_memremap are still valid.
A good place to meet the two aforementioned conditions is right after
memblock_x86_fill, grouped with other EFI-related functions.

Both efi_find_mirror() and efi_fake_memmap() really want to know
whether the EFI memory map is available, not just whether the machine
was booted using EFI. efi_fake_memmap() even has a check for
EFI_MEMMAP at the start of the function.
Since we've already got other code that has this dependency, merge
everything under one if() conditional, and remove the now superfluous
check from efi_fake_memmap().

The initialization process for trampoline_cr4_features and
mmu_cr4_features was confusing. The intent is for mmu_cr4_features
and *trampoline_cr4_features to stay in sync, but
trampoline_cr4_features is NULL until setup_real_mode() runs. The
old code synchronized *trampoline_cr4_features *twice*, once in
setup_real_mode() and once in setup_arch(). It also initialized
mmu_cr4_features in setup_real_mode(), which causes the actual value
of mmu_cr4_features to potentially depend on when setup_real_mode()
is called.
With this patch, mmu_cr4_features is initialized directly in
setup_arch(), and *trampoline_cr4_features is synchronized to
mmu_cr4_features when the trampoline is set up.
After this patch, it should be safe to defer setup_real_mode().

Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The new feaures here are the support for ACPI overlays (allowing ACPI
tables to be loaded at any time from EFI variables or via configfs)
and the LPI (Low-Power Idle) support. Also notable is the ACPI-based
NUMA support for ARM64.
Apart from that we have two new drivers, for the DPTF (Dynamic Power
and Thermal Framework) power participant device and for the Intel
Broxton WhiskeyCove PMIC, some more PMIC-related changes, support for
the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) in APEI and support for
platform-initiated graceful shutdown.
Plus two new pieces of documentation and usual assorted fixes and
cleanups in quite a few places.
Specifics:
- Support for ACPI SSDT overlays allowing Secondary System
Description Tables (SSDTs) to be loaded at any time from EFI
variables or via configfs (Octavian Purdila, Mika Westerberg).
- Support for the ACPI LPI (Low-Power Idle) feature introduced in
ACPI 6.0 and allowing processor idle states to be represented in
ACPI tables in a hierarchical way (with the help of Processor
Container objects) and support for ACPI idle states management on
ARM64, based on LPI (Sudeep Holla).
- General improvements of ACPI support for NUMA and ARM64 support for
ACPI-based NUMA (Hanjun Guo, David Daney, Robert Richter).
- General improvements of the ACPI table upgrade mechanism and ARM64
support for that feature (Aleksey Makarov, Jon Masters).
- Support for the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) in APEI and
improvements of kernel messages printed by the error injection code
(Huang Ying, Borislav Petkov).
- New driver for the Intel Broxton WhiskeyCove PMIC operation region
and support for the REGS operation region on Broxton, PMIC code
cleanups (Bin Gao, Felipe Balbi, Paul Gortmaker).
- New driver for the power participant device which is part of the
Dynamic Power and Thermal Framework (DPTF) and DPTF-related code
reorganization (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Support for the platform-initiated graceful shutdown feature
introduced in ACPI 6.1 (Prashanth Prakash).
- ACPI button driver update related to lid input events generated
automatically on initialization and system resume that have been
problematic for some time (Lv Zheng).
- ACPI EC driver cleanups (Lv Zheng).
- Documentation of the ACPICA release automation process and the
in-kernel ACPI AML debugger (Lv Zheng).
- New blacklist entry and two fixes for the ACPI backlight driver
(Alex Hung, Arvind Yadav, Ralf Gerbig).
- Cleanups of the ACPI pci_slot driver (Joe Perches, Paul Gortmaker).
- ACPI CPPC code changes to make it more robust against possible
defects in ACPI tables and new symbol definitions for PCC (Hoan
Tran).
- System reboot code modification to execute the ACPI _PTS (Prepare
To Sleep) method in addition to _TTS (Ocean He).
- ACPICA-related change to carry out lock ordering checks in ACPICA
if ACPICA debug is enabled in the kernel (Lv Zheng).
- Assorted minor fixes and cleanups (Andy Shevchenko, Baoquan He,
Bhaktipriya Shridhar, Paul Gortmaker, Rafael Wysocki)"
