arm64/scs: Deal with 64-bit relative offsets in FDE frames
In some cases, the compiler may decide to emit DWARF FDE frames with
64-bit signed fields for the code offset and range fields. This may
happen when using the large code model, for instance, which permits
an executable to be spread out over more than 4 GiB of address space.
Whether this is the case can be inferred from the augmentation data in
the CIE frame, so decode this data before processing the FDE frames.

KVM: arm64: Use hVHE in pKVM by default on CPUs with VHE support
The early command line parsing treats "kvm-arm.mode=protected" as an
alias for "id_aa64mmfr1.vh=0", forcing the use of nVHE so that the host
kernel runs at EL1 with the pKVM hypervisor at EL2.
With the introduction of hVHE support in ad744e8cb346 ("arm64: Allow
arm64_sw.hvhe on command line"), the hypervisor can run using the EL2+0
translation regime. This is interesting for unusual CPUs that have VH
stuck to 1, but also because it opens the possibility of a hypervisor
"userspace" in the distant future which could be used to isolate vCPU
contexts in the hypervisor (see Marc's talk from KVM Forum 2022 [1]).
Repaint the "kvm-arm.mode=protected" alias to map to "arm64_sw.hvhe=1",
which will use hVHE on CPUs that support it and remain with nVHE
otherwise.

arm64: mm: add support for WXN memory translation attribute
The AArch64 virtual memory system supports a global WXN control, which
can be enabled to make all writable mappings implicitly no-exec. This is
a useful hardening feature, as it prevents mistakes in managing page
table permissions from being exploited to attack the system.
When enabled at EL1, the restrictions apply to both EL1 and EL0. EL1 is
completely under our control, and has been cleaned up to allow WXN to be
enabled from boot onwards. EL0 is not under our control, but given that
widely deployed security features such as selinux or PaX already limit
the ability of user space to create mappings that are writable and
executable at the same time, the impact of enabling this for EL0 is
expected to be limited. (For this reason, common user space libraries
that have a legitimate need for manipulating executable code already
carry fallbacks such as [0].)
If enabled at compile time, the feature can still be disabled at boot if
needed, by passing arm64.nowxn on the kernel command line.

arm64: Enable LPA2 at boot if supported by the system
Update the early kernel mapping code to take 52-bit virtual addressing
into account based on the LPA2 feature. This is a bit more involved than
LVA (which is supported with 64k pages only), given that some page table
descriptor bits change meaning in this case.
To keep the handling in asm to a minimum, the initial ID map is still
created with 48-bit virtual addressing, which implies that the kernel
image must be loaded into 48-bit addressable physical memory. This is
currently required by the boot protocol, even though we happen to
support placement outside of that for LVA/64k based configurations.
Enabling LPA2 involves more than setting TCR.T1SZ to a lower value,
there is also a DS bit in TCR that needs to be set, and which changes
the meaning of bits [9:8] in all page table descriptors. Since we cannot
enable DS and every live page table descriptor at the same time, let's
pivot through another temporary mapping. This avoids the need to
reintroduce manipulations of the page tables with the MMU and caches
disabled.
To permit the LPA2 feature to be overridden on the kernel command line,
which may be necessary to work around silicon errata, or to deal with
mismatched features on heterogeneous SoC designs, test for CPU feature
overrides first, and only then enable LPA2.

arm64: mm: Add feature override support for LVA
Add support for overriding the VARange field of the MMFR2 CPU ID
register. This permits the associated LVA feature to be overridden early
enough for the boot code that creates the kernel mapping to take it into
account.
Given that LPA2 implies LVA, disabling the latter should disable the
former as well. So override the ID_AA64MMFR0.TGran field of the current
page size as well if it advertises support for 52-bit addressing.

arm64: mm: Handle LVA support as a CPU feature
Currently, we detect CPU support for 52-bit virtual addressing (LVA)
extremely early, before creating the kernel page tables or enabling the
MMU. We cannot override the feature this early, and so large virtual
addressing is always enabled on CPUs that implement support for it if
the software support for it was enabled at build time. It also means we
rely on non-trivial code in asm to deal with this feature.
Given that both the ID map and the TTBR1 mapping of the kernel image are
guaranteed to be 48-bit addressable, it is not actually necessary to
enable support this early, and instead, we can model it as a CPU
feature. That way, we can rely on code patching to get the correct
TCR.T1SZ values programmed on secondary boot and resume from suspend.
On the primary boot path, we simply enable the MMU with 48-bit virtual
addressing initially, and update TCR.T1SZ if LVA is supported from C
code, right before creating the kernel mapping. Given that TTBR1 still
points to reserved_pg_dir at this point, updating TCR.T1SZ should be
safe without the need for explicit TLB maintenance.
Since this gets rid of all accesses to the vabits_actual variable from
asm code that occurred before TCR.T1SZ had been programmed, we no longer
have a need for this variable, and we can replace it with a C expression
that produces the correct value directly, based on the value of TCR.T1SZ.

arm64: kernel: Create initial ID map from C code
The asm code that creates the initial ID map is rather intricate and
hard to follow. This is problematic because it makes adding support for
things like LPA2 or WXN more difficult than necessary. Also, it is
parameterized like the rest of the MM code to run with a configurable
number of levels, which is rather pointless, given that all AArch64 CPUs
implement support for 48-bit virtual addressing, and that many systems
exist with DRAM located outside of the 39-bit addressable range, which
is the only smaller VA size that is widely used, and we need additional
tricks to make things work in that combination.
So let's bite the bullet, and rip out all the asm macros, and fiddly
code, and replace it with a C implementation based on the newly added
routines for creating the early kernel VA mappings. And while at it,
create the initial ID map based on 48-bit virtual addressing as well,
regardless of the number of configured levels for the kernel proper.
Note that this code may execute with the MMU and caches disabled, and is
therefore not permitted to make unaligned accesses. This shouldn't
generally happen in any case for the algorithm as implemented, but to be
sure, let's pass -mstrict-align to the compiler just in case.

The asm version of the kernel mapping code works fine for creating a
coarse grained identity map, but for mapping the kernel down to its
exact boundaries with the right attributes, it is not suitable. This is
why we create a preliminary RWX kernel mapping first, and then rebuild
it from scratch later on.
So let's reimplement this in C, in a way that will make it unnecessary
to create the kernel page tables yet another time in paging_init().
