Per the ISA, a Trace interrupt is not generated for:
- [h|u]rfi[d]
- rfscv
- sc, scv, and Trap instructions that trap
- Power-Saving Mode instructions
- other instructions that cause interrupts (other than Trace interrupts)
- the first instructions of any interrupt handler (applies to Branch and Single Step tracing;
CIABR matches may still occur)
- instructions that are emulated by software
Add a helper to check for instructions belonging to the first four
categories above and to reject kprobes, uprobes and xmon breakpoints on
such instructions. We reject probing on instructions belonging to these
categories across all ISA versions and across both BookS and BookE.
For trap instructions, we can't know in advance if they can cause a
trap, and there is no good reason to allow probing on those. Also,
uprobes already refuses to probe trap instructions and kprobes does not
allow probes on trap instructions used for kernel warnings and bugs. As
such, stop allowing any type of probes/breakpoints on trap instruction
across uprobes, kprobes and xmon.
For some of the fp/altivec instructions that can generate an interrupt
and which we emulate in the kernel (altivec assist, for example), we
check and turn off single stepping in emulate_single_step().
Instructions generating a DSI are restarted and single stepping normally
completes once the instruction is completed.
In uprobes, if a single stepped instruction results in a non-fatal
signal to be delivered to the task, such signals are "delayed" until
after the instruction completes. For fatal signals, single stepping is
cancelled and the instruction restarted in-place so that core dump
captures proper addresses.
In kprobes, we do not allow probes on instructions having an extable
entry and we also do not allow probing interrupt vectors.

When an interrupt is taken, the SRR registers are set to return to where
it left off. Unless they are modified in the meantime, or the return
address or MSR are modified, there is no need to reload these registers
when returning from interrupt.
Introduce per-CPU flags that track the validity of SRR and HSRR
registers. These are cleared when returning from interrupt, when
using the registers for something else (e.g., OPAL calls), when
adjusting the return address or MSR of a context, and when context
switching (which changes the return address and MSR).
This improves the performance of interrupt returns.

This patch moves the single step enable code used by kprobe to a generic
routine header so that, it can be re-used by other code, in this case,
uprobes. No functional changes.

[24/29] powerpc: Uprobes port to powerpc
Caused a clash with the fore200e driver:
In file included from drivers/atm/fore200e.c:70:0:
drivers/atm/fore200e.h:263:3: error: redefinition of typedef 'opcode_t' with different type
arch/powerpc/include/asm/probes.h:25:13: note: previous declaration of 'opcode_t' was here
Fix the namespace clash by making opcode_t in probes.h to ppc_opcode_t.

Move is_trap() and relatives to a common file to be shared between kprobes
and uprobes.
Code movement only; no change in functionality.
