[PATCH v3 21/21] arm64/fpsimd: Allocate kernel mode FP/SIMD buffers on the stack

[Ard Biesheuvel <ardb+git@google.com>]

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

Commit aefbab8e77eb16b5

  ("arm64: fpsimd: Preserve/restore kernel mode NEON at context switch")

added a 'kernel_fpsimd_state' field to struct thread_struct, which is
the arch-specific portion of struct task_struct, and is allocated for
each task in the system. The size of this field is 528 bytes, resulting
in non-negligible bloat of task_struct, and the resulting memory
overhead may impact performance on systems with many processes.

This allocation is only used if the task is scheduled out or interrupted
by a softirq while using the FP/SIMD unit in kernel mode, and so it is
possible to transparently allocate this buffer on the caller's stack
instead.

So tweak the 'ksimd' scoped guard implementation so that a stack buffer
is allocated and passed to both kernel_neon_begin() and
kernel_neon_end(), and either record it in the task struct, or use it
directly to preserve the task mode kernel FP/SIMD when running in
softirq context. Passing the address to both functions, and checking the
addresses for consistency ensures that callers of the updated bare
begin/end API use it in a manner that is consistent with the new context
switch semantics.
