Merge branch 'linus' into x86/boot, to resolve conflict

in the following merge conflict resolution in <asm/coco.h>:

38b334fc767e Merge tag 'x86_sev_for_v6.9_rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Linus has resolved the conflicting placement of 'cc_mask' better
than the original commit:

1c811d403afd x86/sev: Fix position dependent variable references in startup code

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

2e5fc4786b7a Merge branch 'x86/sev' into x86/boot, to resolve conflicts and to pick up dependent tree

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
tree and follow his conflict resolution.

Merge tag 'timers-core-2024-03-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large set of updates and features for timers and timekeeping:

- The hierarchical timer pull model

When timer wheel timers are armed they are placed into the timer
wheel of a CPU which is likely to be busy at the time of expiry.
This is done to avoid wakeups on potentially idle CPUs.

This is wrong in several aspects:

1) The heuristics to select the target CPU are wrong by
definition as the chance to get the prediction right is
close to zero.

2) Due to #1 it is possible that timers are accumulated on
a single target CPU

3) The required computation in the enqueue path is just overhead
for dubious value especially under the consideration that the
vast majority of timer wheel timers are either canceled or
rearmed before they expire.

The timer pull model avoids the above by removing the target
computation on enqueue and queueing timers always on the CPU on
which they get armed.

This is achieved by having separate wheels for CPU pinned timers
and global timers which do not care about where they expire.

As long as a CPU is busy it handles both the pinned and the global
timers which are queued on the CPU local timer wheels.

When a CPU goes idle it evaluates its own timer wheels:

- If the first expiring timer is a pinned timer, then the global
timers can be ignored as the CPU will wake up before they
expire.

- If the first expiring timer is a global timer, then the expiry
time is propagated into the timer pull hierarchy and the CPU
makes sure to wake up for the first pinned timer.

The timer pull hierarchy organizes CPUs in groups of eight at the
lowest level and at the next levels groups of eight groups up to
the point where no further aggregation of groups is required, i.e.
the number of levels is log8(NR_CPUS). The magic number of eight
has been established by experimention, but can be adjusted if
needed.

In each group one busy CPU acts as the migrator. It's only one CPU
to avoid lock contention on remote timer wheels.

The migrator CPU checks in its own timer wheel handling whether
there are other CPUs in the group which have gone idle and have
global timers to expire. If there are global timers to expire, the
migrator locks the remote CPU timer wheel and handles the expiry.

Depending on the group level in the hierarchy this handling can
require to walk the hierarchy downwards to the CPU level.

Special care is taken when the last CPU goes idle. At this point
the CPU is the systemwide migrator at the top of the hierarchy and
it therefore cannot delegate to the hierarchy. It needs to arm its
own timer device to expire either at the first expiring timer in
the hierarchy or at the first CPU local timer, which ever expires
first.

This completely removes the overhead from the enqueue path, which
is e.g. for networking a true hotpath and trades it for a slightly
more complex idle path.

This has been in development for a couple of years and the final
series has been extensively tested by various teams from silicon
vendors and ran through extensive CI.

There have been slight performance improvements observed on network
centric workloads and an Intel team confirmed that this allows them
to power down a die completely on a mult-die socket for the first
time in a mostly idle scenario.

There is only one outstanding ~1.5% regression on a specific
overloaded netperf test which is currently investigated, but the
rest is either positive or neutral performance wise and positive on
the power management side.

- Fixes for the timekeeping interpolation code for cross-timestamps:

cross-timestamps are used for PTP to get snapshots from hardware
timers and interpolated them back to clock MONOTONIC. The changes
address a few corner cases in the interpolation code which got the
math and logic wrong.

- Simplifcation of the clocksource watchdog retry logic to
automatically adjust to handle larger systems correctly instead of
having more incomprehensible command line parameters.

- Treewide consolidation of the VDSO data structures.

- The usual small improvements and cleanups all over the place"

timers: Implement the hierarchical pull model

Placing timers at enqueue time on a target CPU based on dubious heuristics
does not make any sense:

1) Most timer wheel timers are canceled or rearmed before they expire.

2) The heuristics to predict which CPU will be busy when the timer expires
are wrong by definition.

So placing the timers at enqueue wastes precious cycles.

The proper solution to this problem is to always queue the timers on the
local CPU and allow the non pinned timers to be pulled onto a busy CPU at
expiry time.

Therefore split the timer storage into local pinned and global timers:
Local pinned timers are always expired on the CPU on which they have been
queued. Global timers can be expired on any CPU.

As long as a CPU is busy it expires both local and global timers. When a
CPU goes idle it arms for the first expiring local timer. If the first
expiring pinned (local) timer is before the first expiring movable timer,
then no action is required because the CPU will wake up before the first
movable timer expires. If the first expiring movable timer is before the
first expiring pinned (local) timer, then this timer is queued into an idle
timerqueue and eventually expired by another active CPU.

To avoid global locking the timerqueues are implemented as a hierarchy. The
lowest level of the hierarchy holds the CPUs. The CPUs are associated to
groups of 8, which are separated per node. If more than one CPU group
exist, then a second level in the hierarchy collects the groups. Depending
on the size of the system more than 2 levels are required. Each group has a
"migrator" which checks the timerqueue during the tick for remote expirable
timers.

If the last CPU in a group goes idle it reports the first expiring event in
the group up to the next group(s) in the hierarchy. If the last CPU goes
idle it arms its timer for the first system wide expiring timer to ensure
that no timer event is missed.
