[PATCH 5/9] powerpc/dexcr: Support custom default DEXCR value

[Benjamin Gray <bgray@linux.ibm.com>]

Make the DEXCR value configurable at config time. Intentionally don't
limit possible values to support future aspects without needing kernel
updates.

The default config value enables hashst/hashchk in problem state.
This should be safe, as generally software needs to request these
instructions be included in the first place.

New in v1

Preface with: I'm note sure on the best place to put the config.

I also don't think there's any need to zero out unknown/unsupported
bits. Reserved implies they are ignored by the hardware (from my
understanding of the ISA). Current P10s boot with all bits set; lsdexcr
(later patch) reports

   uDEXCR: ff000000 (SBHE, IBRTPD, SRAPD, NPHIE, PHIE, unknown)

when you try to read it back. Leaving them be also makes it easier to
support newer aspects without a kernel update.

If arbitrary value support isn't important, it's probably a nicer
interface to make each aspect an entry in a menu.

Future work may include dynamic DEXCR controls via prctl() and sysfs.
The dynamic controls would be able to override this default DEXCR on a
per-process basis. A stronger "PPC_ENFORCE_USER_ROP_PROCTETION" config
may be required at such a time to prevent dynamically disabling the
hash checks.
