47b04699d0 powerpc/modules: Use PPC_RAW_xx() macros
To improve readability, use PPC_RAW_xx() macros instead of
open coding. Those macros are self-explanatory so the comments
can go as well.

bac7ca7b98 powerpc: module_[32|64].c: replace swap function with built-in one
Replace relaswap with built-in one, because relaswap
does a simple byte to byte swap.

Since Spectre mitigations have made indirect function calls more
expensive, and the default simple byte copies swap is implemented
without them, an "optimized" custom swap function is now
a waste of time as well as code.

192f0f8e9d powerpc updates for 5.3
Notable changes:
 
  - Removal of the NPU DMA code, used by the out-of-tree Nvidia driver, as well
    as some other functions only used by drivers that haven't (yet?) made it
    upstream.
 
  - A fix for a bug in our handling of hardware watchpoints (eg. perf record -e
    mem: ...) which could lead to register corruption and kernel crashes.
 
  - Enable HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP, which allows us to use large pages for vmalloc
    when using the Radix MMU.
 
  - A large but incremental rewrite of our exception handling code to use gas
    macros rather than multiple levels of nested CPP macros.
 
 And the usual small fixes, cleanups and improvements.

136cd3450a powerpc/module: Only try to generate the ftrace_caller() stub once
Currently we generate the module stub for ftrace_caller() at the bottom
of apply_relocate_add(). However apply_relocate_add() is potentially
called more than once per module, which means we will try to generate
the ftrace_caller() stub multiple times.

Although the current code deals with that correctly, ie. it only
generates a stub the first time, it would be clearer to only try to
generate the stub once.

Note also on first reading it may appear that we generate a different
stub for each section that requires relocation, but that is not the
case. The code in stub_for_addr() that searches for an existing stub
uses sechdrs[me->arch.stubs_section], ie. the single stub section for
this module.

A cleaner approach is to only generate the ftrace_caller() stub once,
from module_finalize(). Although the original code didn't check to see
if the stub was actually generated correctly, it seems prudent to add a
check, so do that. And an additional benefit is we can clean the ifdefs
up a little.

Finally we must propagate the const'ness of some of the pointers passed
to module_finalize(), but that is also an improvement.

3c75296562 powerpc: Fix kernel panic during kernel module load
This fixes a problem which can causes kernel oopses while loading
a kernel module.

According to the PowerPC EABI specification, GPR r11 is assigned
the dedicated function to point to the previous stack frame.
In the powerpc-specific kernel module loader, do_plt_call()
(in arch/powerpc/kernel/module_32.c), GPR r11 is also used
to generate trampoline code.

This combination crashes the kernel, in the case where the compiler
chooses to use a helper function for saving GPRs on entry, and the
module loader has placed the .init.text section far away from the
.text section, meaning that it has to generate a trampoline for
functions in the .init.text section to call the GPR save helper.
Because the trampoline trashes r11, references to the stack frame
using r11 can cause an oops.

The fix just uses GPR r12 instead of GPR r11 for generating the
trampoline code.  According to the statements from Freescale, this is
safe from an EABI perspective.

I've tested the fix for kernel 2.6.33 on MPC8541.

eda09fbdcd [POWERPC] Optimize counting distinct entries in the relocation sections
When a module has relocation sections with tens of thousands of
entries, counting the distinct/unique entries only (i.e. no
duplicates) at load time can take tens of seconds and up to minutes.
The sore point is the count_relocs() function which is called as part
of the architecture specific module loading processing path:

	-> load_module()			generic
	   -> module_frob_arch_sections()	arch specific
	      -> get_plt_size()		32-bit
	      -> get_stubs_size()	64-bit
		 -> count_relocs()

Here count_relocs is being called to find out how many distinct
targets of R_PPC_REL24 relocations there are, since each distinct
target needs a PLT entry or a stub created for it.

The previous counting algorithm has O(n^2) complexity.  Basically two
solutions were proposed on the e-mail list: a hash based approach and
a sort based approach.

The hash based approach is the fastest (O(n)) but the has it needs
additional memory and for certain corner cases it could take lots of
memory due to the degeneration of the hash.  One such proposal was
submitted here:

http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2007-June/037641.html

The sort based approach is slower (O(n * log n + n)) but if the
sorting is done "in place" it doesn't need additional memory.
This has O(n + n * log n) complexity with no additional memory
requirements.

This commit implements the in-place sort option.

73c9ceab40 [POWERPC] Generic BUG for powerpc
This makes powerpc use the generic BUG machinery.  The biggest reports the
function name, since it is redundant with kallsyms, and not needed in general.

There is an overall reduction of code, since module_32/64 duplicated several
functions.

Unfortunately there's no way to tell gcc that BUG won't return, so the BUG
macro includes a goto loop.  This will generate a real jmp instruction, which
is never used.

21c4ff80cb [POWERPC] Support feature fixups in modules
This patch adds support for feature fixups in modules. This involves
adding support for R_PPC64_REL64 relocs to the 64 bits module loader.
It also modifies modpost.c to ignore the powerpc fixup sections (or it
would warn when used in .init.text).

ed981856ca powerpc: Move module.c over to arch/powerpc
... and rename it to module_32.c since it is the 32-bit version.
The 32-bit and 64-bit ABIs are sufficiently different that having
a merged version isn't really practical.
