[PATCH v5 7/8] powerpc/64s: Initialize and use a temporary mm for patching on Radix

["Christopher M. Riedl" <cmr@linux.ibm.com>]

When code patching a STRICT_KERNEL_RWX kernel the page containing the
address to be patched is temporarily mapped as writeable. Currently, a
per-cpu vmalloc patch area is used for this purpose. While the patch
area is per-cpu, the temporary page mapping is inserted into the kernel
page tables for the duration of patching. The mapping is exposed to CPUs
other than the patching CPU - this is undesirable from a hardening
perspective. Use a temporary mm instead which keeps the mapping local to
the CPU doing the patching.

Use the `poking_init` init hook to prepare a temporary mm and patching
address. Initialize the temporary mm by copying the init mm. Choose a
randomized patching address inside the temporary mm userspace address
space. The patching address is randomized between PAGE_SIZE and
DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW-PAGE_SIZE.

Bits of entropy with 64K page size on BOOK3S_64:

        bits of entropy = log2(DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW_USER64 / PAGE_SIZE)

        PAGE_SIZE=64K, DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW_USER64=128TB
        bits of entropy = log2(128TB / 64K)
	bits of entropy = 31

The upper limit is DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW due to how the Book3s64 Hash MMU
operates - by default the space above DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW is not
available. Currently the Hash MMU does not use a temporary mm so
technically this upper limit isn't necessary; however, a larger
randomization range does not further "harden" this overall approach and
future work may introduce patching with a temporary mm on Hash as well.

Randomization occurs only once during initialization at boot for each
possible CPU in the system.

Introduce two new functions, map_patch() and unmap_patch(), to
respectively create and remove the temporary mapping with write
permissions at patching_addr. Map the page with PAGE_KERNEL to set
EAA[0] for the PTE which ignores the AMR (so no need to unlock/lock
KUAP) according to PowerISA v3.0b Figure 35 on Radix.

Based on x86 implementation:

commit 4fc19708b165
("x86/alternatives: Initialize temporary mm for patching")

and:

commit b3fd8e83ada0
("x86/alternatives: Use temporary mm for text poking")

v5:  * Only support Book3s64 Radix MMU for now.
     * Use a per-cpu datastructure to hold the patching_addr and
       patching_mm to avoid the need for a synchronization lock/mutex.

v4:  * In the previous series this was two separate patches: one to init
       the temporary mm in poking_init() (unused in powerpc at the time)
       and the other to use it for patching (which removed all the
       per-cpu vmalloc code). Now that we use poking_init() in the
       existing per-cpu vmalloc approach, that separation doesn't work
       as nicely anymore so I just merged the two patches into one.
     * Preload the SLB entry and hash the page for the patching_addr
       when using Hash on book3s64 to avoid taking an SLB and Hash fault
       during patching. The previous implementation was a hack which
       changed current->mm to allow the SLB and Hash fault handlers to
       work with the temporary mm since both of those code-paths always
       assume mm == current->mm.
     * Also (hmm - seeing a trend here) with the book3s64 Hash MMU we
       have to manage the mm->context.active_cpus counter and mm cpumask
       since they determine (via mm_is_thread_local()) if the TLB flush
       in pte_clear() is local or not - it should always be local when
       we're using the temporary mm. On book3s64's Radix MMU we can
       just call local_flush_tlb_mm().
     * Use HPTE_USE_KERNEL_KEY on Hash to avoid costly lock/unlock of
       KUAP.
