Kees Cook 33f98a9798 x86/boot/compressed: Avoid duplicate malloc() implementations
The early malloc() and free() implementation in include/linux/decompress/mm.h
(which is also included by the static decompressors) is static. This is
fine when the only thing interested in using malloc() is the decompression
code, but the x86 early boot environment may use malloc() in a couple places,
leading to a potential collision when the static copies of the available
memory region ("malloc_ptr") gets reset to the global "free_mem_ptr" value.
As it happened, the existing usage pattern was accidentally safe because each
user did 1 malloc() and 1 free() before returning and were not nested:

extract_kernel() (misc.c)
	choose_random_location() (kaslr.c)
		mem_avoid_init()
			handle_mem_options()
				malloc()
				...
				free()
	...
	parse_elf() (misc.c)
		malloc()
		...
		free()

Once the future FGKASLR series is added, however, it will insert
additional malloc() calls local to fgkaslr.c in the middle of
parse_elf()'s malloc()/free() pair:

	parse_elf() (misc.c)
		malloc()
		if (...) {
			layout_randomized_image(output, &ehdr, phdrs);
				malloc() <- boom
				...
		else
			layout_image(output, &ehdr, phdrs);
		free()

To avoid collisions, there must be a single implementation of malloc().
Adjust include/linux/decompress/mm.h so that visibility can be
controlled, provide prototypes in misc.h, and implement the functions in
misc.c. This also results in a small size savings:

$ size vmlinux.before vmlinux.after
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
8842314     468  178320 9021102  89a6ae vmlinux.before
8842240     468  178320 9021028  89a664 vmlinux.after
