x86: fix user address masking non-canonical speculation issue

It turns out that AMD has a "Meltdown Lite(tm)" issue with non-canonical
accesses in kernel space. And so using just the high bit to decide
whether an access is in user space or kernel space ends up with the good
old "leak speculative data" if you have the right gadget using the
result:

CVE-2020-12965 “Transient Execution of Non-Canonical Accesses“

Now, the kernel surrounds the access with a STAC/CLAC pair, and those
instructions end up serializing execution on older Zen architectures,
which closes the speculation window.

But that was true only up until Zen 5, which renames the AC bit [1].
That improves performance of STAC/CLAC a lot, but also means that the
speculation window is now open.

Note that this affects not just the new address masking, but also the
regular valid_user_address() check used by access_ok(), and the asm
version of the sign bit check in the get_user() helpers.

It does not affect put_user() or clear_user() variants, since there's no
speculative result to be used in a gadget for those operations.

Merge branch 'address-masking'

Merge user access fast validation using address masking.

This allows architectures to optionally use a data dependent address
masking model instead of a conditional branch for validating user
accesses. That avoids the Spectre-v1 speculation barriers.

Right now only x86-64 takes advantage of this, and not all architectures
will be able to do it. It requires a guard region between the user and
kernel address spaces (so that you can't overflow from one to the
other), and an easy way to generate a guaranteed-to-fault address for
invalid user pointers.

Also note that this currently assumes that there is no difference
between user read and write accesses. If extended to architectures like
powerpc, we'll also need to separate out the user read-vs-write cases.

x86: make the masked_user_access_begin() macro use its argument only once

This doesn't actually matter for any of the current users, but before
merging it mainline, make sure we don't have any surprising semantics.

We don't actually want to use an inline function here, because we want
to allow - but not require - const pointer arguments, and return them as
such. But we already had a local auto-type variable, so let's just use
it to avoid any possible double evaluation.

x86: do the user address masking outside the user access area

In any normal situation this really shouldn't matter, but in case the
address passed in to masked_user_access_begin() were to be some complex
expression, we should evaluate it fully before doing the 'stac'
instruction.

And even without that issue (which objdump would pick up on for any
really bad case), just in general we should strive to minimize the
amount of code we run with user accesses enabled.

For example, even for the trivial pselect6() case, the code generation
(obviously with a non-debug build) just diff with this ends up being

- stac
mov %rax,%rcx
sar $0x3f,%rcx
or %rax,%rcx
+ stac
mov (%rcx),%r13
mov 0x8(%rcx),%r14
clac

so the area delimeted by the 'stac / clac' pair is now literally just
the two user access instructions, and the address generation has been
moved out to before that code.

This will be much more noticeable if we end up deciding that we can go
back to just inlining "get_user()" using the new masked user access
model. The get_user() pointers can often be more complex expressions
involving kernel memory accesses or even function calls.

x86: support user address masking instead of non-speculative conditional

The Spectre-v1 mitigations made "access_ok()" much more expensive, since
it has to serialize execution with the test for a valid user address.

All the normal user copy routines avoid this by just masking the user
address with a data-dependent mask instead, but the fast
"unsafe_user_read()" kind of patterms that were supposed to be a fast
case got slowed down.

This introduces a notion of using

src = masked_user_access_begin(src);

to do the user address sanity using a data-dependent mask instead of the
more traditional conditional

if (user_read_access_begin(src, len)) {

model.

This model only works for dense accesses that start at 'src' and on
architectures that have a guard region that is guaranteed to fault in
between the user space and the kernel space area.

With this, the user access doesn't need to be manually checked, because
a bad address is guaranteed to fault (by some architecture masking
trick: on x86-64 this involves just turning an invalid user address into
all ones, since we don't map the top of address space).

This only converts a couple of examples for now. Example x86-64 code
generation for loading two words from user space:

stac
mov %rax,%rcx
sar $0x3f,%rcx
or %rax,%rcx
mov (%rcx),%r13
mov 0x8(%rcx),%r14
clac

where all the error handling and -EFAULT is now purely handled out of
line by the exception path.

Of course, if the micro-architecture does badly at 'clac' and 'stac',
the above is still pitifully slow. But at least we did as well as we
could.

... which was also done by an internal merge resolution:

But Linus is right in 38b334fc767e, the 'cc_mask' declaration is sufficient
within the #ifdef CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CC_PLATFORM block.

So instead of forcing Linus to do the same resolution again, merge in Linus's

Pull core x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:

- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code, to support the
'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature, by Uros Bizjak:

- This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative memory
via variables declared with such attributes, which allows the
compiler to better optimize those accesses than the previous
inline assembly code.

- The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations for
various percpu access methods, plus a number of cleanups of %gs
accesses in assembly code.

- These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for the
last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.

- Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally working handling
of FPU switching - which also generates better code

- Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code, to generate
slightly better code

- Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic, to
make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options
