ASoC: Fixes for v6.19

We've been quite busy with fixes since the merge window, though not in
any particularly exciting ways - the standout thing is the fix for _SX
controls which were broken by a change to how we do clamping, otherwise
it's all fairly run of the mill fixes and quirks.

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:

- klp-build livepatch module generation (Josh Poimboeuf)

Introduce new objtool features and a klp-build script to generate
livepatch modules using a source .patch as input.

This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree kpatch
project which began in 2012 and has been used for many years to
generate livepatch modules for production kernels. However, this is a
complete rewrite which incorporates hard-earned lessons from 12+
years of maintaining kpatch.

Key improvements compared to kpatch-build:

- Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow
graph analysis to help detect changed functions.

- Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it
compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar.

- Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code.

- Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft.

- Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for
symbol/section/reloc inclusion and special section extraction.

- Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs
caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines
script which injects #line directives into the source .patch to
preserve the original line numbers at compile time.

- Disassemble code with libopcodes instead of running objdump
(Alexandre Chartre)

- Disassemble support (-d option to objtool) by Alexandre Chartre,
which supports the decoding of various Linux kernel code generation
specials such as alternatives:

17ef: sched_balance_find_dst_group+0x62f mov 0x34(%r9),%edx
17f3: sched_balance_find_dst_group+0x633 | <alternative.17f3> | X86_FEATURE_POPCNT
17f3: sched_balance_find_dst_group+0x633 | call 0x17f8 <__sw_hweight64> | popcnt %rdi,%rax
17f8: sched_balance_find_dst_group+0x638 cmp %eax,%edx

... jump table alternatives:

1895: sched_use_asym_prio+0x5 test $0x8,%ch
1898: sched_use_asym_prio+0x8 je 0x18a9 <sched_use_asym_prio+0x19>

189a: sched_use_asym_prio+0xa | jmp 0x18ae <sched_use_asym_prio+0x1e> | nop2
189c: sched_use_asym_prio+0xc mov $0x1,%eax
18a1: sched_use_asym_prio+0x11 and $0x80,%ecx

... exception table alternatives:

native_read_msr:
5b80: native_read_msr+0x0 mov %edi,%ecx
5b82: native_read_msr+0x2 | <ex_table.5b82> | EXCEPTION
5b82: native_read_msr+0x2 | rdmsr | resume at 0x5b84 <native_read_msr+0x4>
5b84: native_read_msr+0x4 shl $0x20,%rdx

.... x86 feature flag decoding (also see the X86_FEATURE_POPCNT
example in sched_balance_find_dst_group() above):

2faaf: start_thread_common.constprop.0+0x1f jne 0x2fba4 <start_thread_common.constprop.0+0x114>
2fab5: start_thread_common.constprop.0+0x25 | <alternative.2fab5> | X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS | X86_BUG_NULL_SEG
2fab5: start_thread_common.constprop.0+0x25 | jmp 0x2faba <.altinstr_aux+0x2f4> | jmp 0x4b0 <start_thread_common.constprop.0+0x3f> | nop5
2faba: start_thread_common.constprop.0+0x2a mov $0x2b,%eax

... NOP sequence shortening:

1048e2: snapshot_write_finalize+0xc2 je 0x104917 <snapshot_write_finalize+0xf7>
1048e4: snapshot_write_finalize+0xc4 nop6
1048ea: snapshot_write_finalize+0xca nop11
1048f5: snapshot_write_finalize+0xd5 nop11
104900: snapshot_write_finalize+0xe0 mov %rax,%rcx
104903: snapshot_write_finalize+0xe3 mov 0x10(%rdx),%rax

Merge branch 'objtool/core' of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jpoimboe/linux

This series introduces new objtool features and a klp-build script to
generate livepatch modules using a source .patch as input.

This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree kpatch [1]
project which began in 2012 and has been used for many years to generate
livepatch modules for production kernels. However, this is a complete
rewrite which incorporates hard-earned lessons from 12+ years of
maintaining kpatch.

Key improvements compared to kpatch-build:

- Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow
graph analysis to help detect changed functions.

- Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it
compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar.

- Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code.

- Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft.

- Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for symbol/section/reloc
inclusion and special section extraction.

- Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs
caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines script
which injects #line directives into the source .patch to preserve
the original line numbers at compile time.

The primary user interface is the klp-build script which does the
following:

- Builds an original kernel with -function-sections and
-fdata-sections, plus objtool function checksumming.

- Applies the .patch file and rebuilds the kernel using the same
options.

- Runs 'objtool klp diff' to detect changed functions and generate
intermediate binary diff objects.

- Builds a kernel module which links the diff objects with some
livepatch module init code (scripts/livepatch/init.c).

- Finalizes the livepatch module (aka work around linker wreckage)
using 'objtool klp post-link'.

I've tested with a variety of patches on defconfig and Fedora-config
kernels with both GCC and Clang.

Merge tag 'trace-v5.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"The major update to this release is that there's a new arch config
option called CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS.

Currently, only x86_64 enables it. All the ftrace callbacks now take a
struct ftrace_regs instead of a struct pt_regs. If the architecture
has HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS enabled, then the ftrace_regs will
have enough information to read the arguments of the function being
traced, as well as access to the stack pointer.

This way, if a user (like live kernel patching) only cares about the
arguments, then it can avoid using the heavier weight "regs" callback,
that puts in enough information in the struct ftrace_regs to simulate
a breakpoint exception (needed for kprobes).

A new config option that audits the timestamps of the ftrace ring
buffer at most every event recorded.

Ftrace recursion protection has been cleaned up to move the protection
to the callback itself (this saves on an extra function call for those
callbacks).

Perf now handles its own RCU protection and does not depend on ftrace
to do it for it (saving on that extra function call).

New debug option to add "recursed_functions" file to tracefs that
lists all the places that triggered the recursion protection of the
function tracer. This will show where things need to be fixed as
recursion slows down the function tracer.

The eval enum mapping updates done at boot up are now offloaded to a
work queue, as it caused a noticeable pause on slow embedded boards.

Various clean ups and last minute fixes"

livepatch: Use the default ftrace_ops instead of REGS when ARGS is available

When CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS is available, the ftrace call
will be able to set the ip of the calling function. This will improve the
performance of live kernel patching where it does not need all the regs to
be stored just to change the instruction pointer.

If all archs that support live kernel patching also support
HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, then the architecture specific function
klp_arch_set_pc() could be made generic.

It is possible that an arch can support HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS but
not HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS and then have access to live patching.
