We currently register a platform device for e820 type-12 memory and
register a nvdimm bus beneath it. Registering the platform device
triggers the device-core machinery to probe for a driver, but that
search currently comes up empty. Building the nvdimm-bus registration
into the e820_pmem platform device registration in this way forces
libnvdimm to be built-in. Instead, convert the built-in portion of
CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY to simply register a platform device and move the
rest of the logic to the driver for e820_pmem, for the following
reasons:
1/ Letting e820_pmem support be a module allows building and testing
libnvdimm.ko changes without rebooting
2/ All the normal policy around modules can be applied to e820_pmem
(unbind to disable and/or blacklisting the module from loading by
default)
3/ Moving the driver to a generic location and converting it to scan
"iomem_resource" rather than "e820.map" means any other architecture can
take advantage of this simple nvdimm resource discovery mechanism by
registering a resource named "Persistent Memory (legacy)"

VMX encodes access rights differently from LAR, and the latter is
most likely what x86 people think of when they think of "access
rights".
Rename them to avoid confusion.

Boris reported that gcc version 4.4.4 20100503 (Red Hat
4.4.4-2) fails to build linux-next kernels that have
this fresh commit via the locking tree:
11276d5306 ("locking/static_keys: Add a new static_key interface")
The problem appears to be that even though @key and @branch are
compile time constants, it doesn't see the following expression
as an immediate value:
&((char *)key)[branch]
More recent GCCs don't appear to have this problem.
In particular, Red Hat backported the 'asm goto' feature into 4.4,
'normal' 4.4 compilers will not have this feature and thus not
run into this asm.
The workaround is to supply both values to the asm as immediates
and do the addition in asm.

... to allow an arch specific implementation of getting page
protection type associated with a physical address.
On x86, we currently have no way to look up the EFI memory map
attributes for a region in a consistent way, because the
memmap is discarded after efi_free_boot_services(). So if
you call efi_mem_attributes() during boot and at runtime,
you could theoretically see different attributes.
Since we are yet to see any x86 platforms that require
anything other than PAGE_KERNEL (some arm64 platforms
require the equivalent of PAGE_KERNEL_NOCACHE), return that
until we know differently.

The current Hyper-V clock source is based on the per-partition reference counter
and this counter is being accessed via s synthetic MSR - HV_X64_MSR_TIME_REF_COUNT.
Hyper-V has a more efficient way of computing the per-partition reference
counter value that does not involve reading a synthetic MSR. We implement
a time source based on this mechanism.

The zero bits on sptes include not only reserved bits on hardware but also
the bits that SPTEs willnever use. For example, shadow pages will never
use GB pages unless the guest uses them too.

When general-purpose kexec (not kdump) is being performed in Hyper-V guest
the newly booted kernel fails with an MCE error coming from the host. It
is the same error which was fixed in the "Drivers: hv: vmbus: Implement
the protocol for tearing down vmbus state" commit - monitor pages remain
special and when they're being written to (as the new kernel doesn't know
these pages are special) bad things happen. We need to perform some
minimalistic cleanup before booting a new kernel on kexec. To do so we
need to register a special machine_ops.shutdown handler to be executed
before the native_machine_shutdown(). Registering a shutdown notification
handler via the register_reboot_notifier() call is not sufficient as it
happens to early for our purposes. machine_ops is not being exported to
modules (and I don't think we want to export it) so let's do this in
mshyperv.c
The minimalistic cleanup consists of cleaning up clockevents, synic MSRs,
guest os id MSR, and hypercall MSR.
Kdump doesn't require all this stuff as it lives in a separate memory
space.

Intel PT chapter in the new Intel Architecture SDM adds several packets
corresponding enable bits and registers that control packet generation.
Also, additional bits in the Intel PT CPUID leaf were added to enumerate
presence and parameters of these new packets and features.
The packets and enables are:
* CYC: cycle accurate mode, provides the number of cycles elapsed since
previous CYC packet; its presence and available threshold values are
enumerated via CPUID;
* MTC: mini time counter packets, used for tracking TSC time between
full TSC packets; its presence and available resolution options are
enumerated via CPUID;
* PSB packet period is now configurable, available period values are
enumerated via CPUID.
This patch adds corresponding bit and register definitions, pmu driver
capabilities based on CPUID enumeration, new attribute format bits for
the new featurens and extends event configuration validation function
to take these into account.

There are various problems and short-comings with the current
static_key interface:
- static_key_{true,false}() read like a branch depending on the key
value, instead of the actual likely/unlikely branch depending on
init value.
- static_key_{true,false}() are, as stated above, tied to the
static_key init values STATIC_KEY_INIT_{TRUE,FALSE}.
- we're limited to the 2 (out of 4) possible options that compile to
a default NOP because that's what our arch_static_branch() assembly
emits.
So provide a new static_key interface:
DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_TRUE(name);
DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(name);
Which define a key of different types with an initial true/false
value.
Then allow:
static_branch_likely()
static_branch_unlikely()
to take a key of either type and emit the right instruction for the
case.
This means adding a second arch_static_branch_jump() assembly helper
which emits a JMP per default.
In order to determine the right instruction for the right state,
encode the branch type in the LSB of jump_entry::key.
This is the final step in removing the naming confusion that has led to
a stream of avoidable bugs such as:
a833581e37 ("x86, perf: Fix static_key bug in load_mm_cr4()")
... but it also allows new static key combinations that will give us
performance enhancements in the subsequent patches.

Change to use the normal pt_regs area to enter and exit vm86
mode. This is done by increasing the padding at the top of the
stack to make room for the extra vm86 segment slots in the IRET
frame. It then saves the 32-bit regs in the off-stack vm86
data, and copies in the vm86 regs. Exiting back to 32-bit mode
does the reverse. This allows removing the hacks to jump
directly into the exit asm code due to having to change the
stack pointer. Returning normally from the vm86 syscall and the
exception handlers allows things like ptrace and auditing to work properly.
