x86/alternatives: Add alt_instr.flags

Add a struct alt_instr.flags field which will contain different flags
controlling alternatives patching behavior.

The initial idea was to be able to specify it as a separate macro
parameter but that would mean touching all possible invocations of the
alternatives macros and thus a lot of churn.

What is more, as PeterZ suggested, being able to say ALT_NOT(feature) is
very readable and explains exactly what is meant.

So make the feature field a u32 where the patching flags are the upper
u16 part of the dword quantity while the lower u16 word is the feature.

The highest feature number currently is 0x26a (i.e., word 19) so there
is plenty of space. If that becomes insufficient, the field can be
extended to u64 which will then make struct alt_instr of the nice size
of 16 bytes (14 bytes currently).

There should be no functional changes resulting from this.

Merge tag 'x86_core_for_v6.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 core updates from Borislav Petkov:

- Add the call depth tracking mitigation for Retbleed which has been
long in the making. It is a lighterweight software-only fix for
Skylake-based cores where enabling IBRS is a big hammer and causes a
significant performance impact.

What it basically does is, it aligns all kernel functions to 16 bytes
boundary and adds a 16-byte padding before the function, objtool
collects all functions' locations and when the mitigation gets
applied, it patches a call accounting thunk which is used to track
the call depth of the stack at any time.

When that call depth reaches a magical, microarchitecture-specific
value for the Return Stack Buffer, the code stuffs that RSB and
avoids its underflow which could otherwise lead to the Intel variant
of Retbleed.

This software-only solution brings a lot of the lost performance
back, as benchmarks suggest:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220915111039.092790446@infradead.org/

That page above also contains a lot more detailed explanation of the
whole mechanism

- Implement a new control flow integrity scheme called FineIBT which is
based on the software kCFI implementation and uses hardware IBT
support where present to annotate and track indirect branches using a
hash to validate them

x86/ibt: Implement FineIBT

Implement an alternative CFI scheme that merges both the fine-grained
nature of kCFI but also takes full advantage of the coarse grained
hardware CFI as provided by IBT.

To contrast:

kCFI is a pure software CFI scheme and relies on being able to read
text -- specifically the instruction *before* the target symbol, and
does the hash validation *before* doing the call (otherwise control
flow is compromised already).

FineIBT is a software and hardware hybrid scheme; by ensuring every
branch target starts with a hash validation it is possible to place
the hash validation after the branch. This has several advantages:

o the (hash) load is avoided; no memop; no RX requirement.

o IBT WAIT-FOR-ENDBR state is a speculation stop; by placing
the hash validation in the immediate instruction after
the branch target there is a minimal speculation window
and the whole is a viable defence against SpectreBHB.

o Kees feels obliged to mention it is slightly more vulnerable
when the attacker can write code.

Obviously this patch relies on kCFI, but additionally it also relies
on the padding from the call-depth-tracking patches. It uses this
padding to place the hash-validation while the call-sites are
re-written to modify the indirect target to be 16 bytes in front of
the original target, thus hitting this new preamble.

Notably, there is no hardware that needs call-depth-tracking (Skylake)
and supports IBT (Tigerlake and onwards).

x86/modules: Add call patching

As for the builtins create call thunks and patch the call sites to call the
thunk on Intel SKL CPUs for retbleed mitigation.

Note, that module init functions are ignored for sake of simplicity because
loading modules is not something which is done in high frequent loops and
the attacker has not really a handle on when this happens in order to
launch a matching attack. The depth tracking will still work for calls into
the builtins and because the call is not accounted it will underflow faster
and overstuff, but that's mitigated by the saturating counter and the side
effect is only temporary.

x86/callthunks: Add call patching for call depth tracking

Mitigating the Intel SKL RSB underflow issue in software requires to
track the call depth. That is every CALL and every RET need to be
intercepted and additional code injected.

The existing retbleed mitigations already include means of redirecting
RET to __x86_return_thunk; this can be re-purposed and RET can be
redirected to another function doing RET accounting.

CALL accounting will use the function padding introduced in prior
patches. For each CALL instruction, the destination symbol's padding
is rewritten to do the accounting and the CALL instruction is adjusted
to call into the padding.

This ensures only affected CPUs pay the overhead of this accounting.
Unaffected CPUs will leave the padding unused and have their 'JMP
__x86_return_thunk' replaced with an actual 'RET' instruction.

Objtool has been modified to supply a .call_sites section that lists
all the 'CALL' instructions. Additionally the paravirt instruction
sites are iterated since they will have been patched from an indirect
call to direct calls (or direct instructions in which case it'll be
ignored).

Module handling and the actual thunk code for SKL will be added in
subsequent steps.
