[PATCH 3/3] arm64: mm: ensure patched kernel text is fetched from PoU

[Hanjun Guo <guohanjun@huawei.com>]

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

The arm64 booting document requires that the bootloader has cleaned the
kernel image to the PoC. However, when a CPU re-enters the kernel due to
either a CPU hotplug "on" event or resuming from a low-power state (e.g.
cpuidle), the kernel text may in-fact be dirty at the PoU due to things
like alternative patching or even module loading.

Thanks to I-cache speculation with the MMU off, stale instructions could
be fetched prior to enabling the MMU, potentially leading to crashes
when executing regions of code that have been modified at runtime.

This patch addresses the issue by ensuring that the local I-cache is
invalidated immediately after a CPU has enabled its MMU but before
jumping out of the identity mapping. Any stale instructions fetched from
the PoC will then be discarded and refetched correctly from the PoU.
Patching kernel text executed prior to the MMU being enabled is
prohibited, so the early entry code will always be clean.
