[PATCH v5 0/7] powerpc: Implement masked user access

["Christophe Leroy (CS GROUP)" <chleroy@kernel.org>]

This is a rebase on top of v6.19-rc2

Masked user access avoids the address/size verification by access_ok().
Allthough its main purpose is to skip the speculation in the
verification of user address and size hence avoid the need of spec
mitigation, it also has the advantage to reduce the amount of
instructions needed so it also benefits to platforms that don't
need speculation mitigation, especially when the size of the copy is
not know at build time.

Patch 1 removes some redundant barrier_nospec()
introduced by commit 74e19ef0ff80 ("uaccess: Add speculation barrier
to copy_from_user()") by removing the barrier in raw_copy_from_user()
which is redundant with the one in copy_from_user().

Patches 2,3,4 are cleaning up powerpc uaccess functions.

Patches 5 and 6 prepare powerpc/32 for the necessary gap at the top
of userspace.

Last patch implements masked user access.

Changes in v5:
- Remove first 3 patches as they were merged in v6.19-rc1
- Rebase on top of v6.19-rc2

Changes in v4:
- Rebased on top of commit 6ec821f050e2 (tag: core-scoped-uaccess) from tip tree
- Patch 3: Simplified as masked_user_read_access_begin() and masked_user_write_access_begin() are already there.
- Patch 10: Simplified mask_user_address_simple() as suggested by Gabriel.

Changes in v3:
- Rebased on top of v6.18-rc1
- Patch 3: Impact on recently modified net/core/scm.c
- Patch 10: Rewrite mask_user_address_simple() for a smaller result on powerpc64, suggested by Gabriel

Changes in v2:
- Converted copy_from_user_iter() to using masked user access.
- Cleaned up powerpc uaccess function to minimise code duplication
when adding masked user access
- Automated TASK_SIZE calculation to minimise use of BUILD_BUG_ON()
- Tried to make some commit messages more clean based on feedback from
version 1 of the series.
