This reverts commit 697ece78f8.
The implementation of SWAP on powerpc requires page protection
bits to not be one of the least significant PTE bits.
Until the SWAP implementation is changed and this requirement voids,
we have to keep at least _PAGE_RW outside of the 3 last bits.
For now, revert to previous PTE bits order. A further rework
may come later.
Fixes: 697ece78f8 ("powerpc/32s: reorder Linux PTE bits to better match Hash PTE bits.")

doesn't mean it is a bad clock. So, fallback to syscall instead

To prevent verifying the kernel module appended signature
twice (finit_module), once by the module_sig_check() and again by IMA,
powerpc secure boot rules define an IMA architecture specific policy
rule only if CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE is not enabled. This,
unfortunately, does not take into account the ability of enabling
"sig_enforce" on the boot command line (module.sig_enforce=1).
Including the IMA module appraise rule results in failing the
finit_module syscall, unless the module signing public key is loaded
onto the IMA keyring.
This patch fixes secure boot policy rules to be based on
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG instead.

Interrupts that use fast_interrupt_return actually do lock AMR, but
they have been ones which tend to come from userspace (or kernel bugs)
in radix mode. With kuap on hash, segment interrupts are taken in
kernel often, which quickly breaks due to the missing restore.

Hugh reported that his trusty G5 crashed after a few hours under load
with an "Unrecoverable exception 380".
The crash is in interrupt_return() where we check lazy_irq_pending(),
which calls get_paca() and with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y that goes to
check_preemption_disabled() via debug_smp_processor_id().
As Nick explained on the list:
Problem is MSR[RI] is cleared here, ready to do the last few things
for interrupt return where we're not allowed to take any other
interrupts.
SLB interrupts can happen just about anywhere aside from kernel
text, global variables, and stack. When that hits, it appears to be
unrecoverable due to RI=0.
The problematic access is in preempt_count() which is:
return READ_ONCE(current_thread_info()->preempt_count);
Because of THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK, current_thread_info() just points to
current, so the access is to somewhere in kernel memory, but not on
the stack or in .data, which means it can cause an SLB miss. If we
take an SLB miss with RI=0 it is fatal.
The easiest solution is to add a version of lazy_irq_pending() that
doesn't do the preemption check and call it from the interrupt return
path.

get/put_user() can be called with nontrivial arguments. fs/proc/page.c
has a good example:
if (put_user(stable_page_flags(ppage), out)) {
stable_page_flags() is quite a lot of code, including spin locks in
the page allocator.
Ensure these arguments are evaluated before user access is allowed.
This improves security by reducing code with access to userspace, but
it also fixes a PREEMPT bug with KUAP on powerpc/64s:
stable_page_flags() is currently called with AMR set to allow writes,
it ends up calling spin_unlock(), which can call preempt_schedule. But
the task switch code can not be called with AMR set (it relies on
interrupts saving the register), so this blows up.
It's fine if the code inside allow_user_access() is preemptible,
because a timer or IPI will save the AMR, but it's not okay to
explicitly cause a reschedule.

If {i,d}-cache-block-size is set and {i,d}-cache-line-size is not, use
the block-size value for both. Per the devicetree spec cache-line-size
is only needed if it differs from the block size.
Originally the code would fallback from block size to line size. An
error message was printed if both properties were missing.
Later the code was refactored to use clearer names and logic but it
inadvertently made line size a required property, meaning on systems
without a line size property we fall back to the default from the
cputable.
On powernv (OPAL) platforms, since the introduction of device tree CPU
features (5a61ef74f2 ("powerpc/64s: Support new device tree binding
for discovering CPU features")), that has led to the wrong value being
used, as the fallback value is incorrect for Power8/Power9 CPUs.
The incorrect values flow through to the VDSO and also to the sysconf
values, SC_LEVEL1_ICACHE_LINESIZE etc.

When remapping a mapping where a portion of a VMA is remapped
into another portion of the VMA it can cause the VMA to become
split. During the copy_vma operation the VMA can actually
be remerged if it's an anonymous VMA whose pages have not yet
been faulted. This isn't normally a problem because at the end
of the remap the original portion is unmapped causing it to
become split again.
However, MREMAP_DONTUNMAP leaves that original portion in place which
means that the VMA which was split and then remerged is not actually
split at the end of the mremap. This patch fixes a bug where
we don't detect that the VMAs got remerged and we end up
putting back VM_ACCOUNT on the next mapping which is completely
unreleated. When that next mapping is unmapped it results in
incorrectly unaccounting for the memory which was never accounted,
and eventually we will underflow on the memory comittment.
There is also another issue which is similar, we're currently
accouting for the number of pages in the new_vma but that's wrong.
We need to account for the length of the remap operation as that's
all that is being added. If there was a mapping already at that
location its comittment would have been adjusted as part of
the munmap at the start of the mremap.
A really simple repro can be seen in:

Hi Linus,
Please, pull the following patches that replace zero-length arrays with
flexible-array members.
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member convertions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.
Notice that all of these patches have been baking in linux-next for
quite a while now and, 238 more of these patches have already been
merged into 5.7-rc1.
There are a couple hundred more of these issues waiting to be addressed
in the whole codebase.

this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

[3] commit 7649773293 ("cxgb3/l2t: Fix undefined behaviour")
Signed-off-by: Gustavo A. R. Silva <gustavo@embeddedor.com>
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
