arm64: Emulate SETEND for AArch32 tasks
Emulate deprecated 'setend' instruction for AArch32 bit tasks.
setend [le/be] - Sets the endianness of EL0
On systems with CPUs which support mixed endian at EL0, the hardware
support for the instruction can be enabled by setting the SCTLR_EL1.SED
bit. Like the other emulated instructions it is controlled by an entry in
/proc/sys/abi/. For more information see :
Documentation/arm64/legacy_instructions.txt
The instruction is emulated by setting/clearing the SPSR_EL1.E bit, which
will be reflected in the PSTATE.E in AArch32 context.
This patch also restores the native endianness for the execution of signal
handlers, since the process could have changed the endianness.
Note: All CPUs on the system must have mixed endian support at EL0. Once the
handler is registered, hotplugging a CPU which doesn't support mixed endian,
could lead to unexpected results/behavior in applications.

arm64: Consolidate hotplug notifier for instruction emulation
As of now each insn_emulation has a cpu hotplug notifier that
enables/disables the CPU feature bit for the functionality. This
patch re-arranges the code, such that there is only one notifier
that runs through the list of registered emulation hooks and runs
their corresponding set_hw_mode.
We do nothing when a CPU is dying as we will set the appropriate bits
as it comes back online based on the state of the hooks.

arm64: fix return code check when changing emulation handler
update_insn_emulation_mode() returns 0 on success, so we should be
treating any non-zero values as failure, rather than the other way
around. Otherwise, writes to the sysctl file controlling the emulation
are ignored and immediately rolled back.

arm64: Trace emulation of AArch32 legacy instructions
Introduce an event to trace the usage of emulated instructions. The
trace event is intended to help identify and encourage the migration
of legacy software using the emulation features.
Use this event to trace usage of swp and CP15 barrier emulation.

arm64: Emulate CP15 Barrier instructions
The CP15 barrier instructions (CP15ISB, CP15DSB and CP15DMB) are
deprecated in the ARMv7 architecture, superseded by ISB, DSB and DMB
instructions respectively. Some implementations may provide the
ability to disable the CP15 barriers by disabling the CP15BEN bit in
SCTLR_EL1. If not enabled, the encodings for these instructions become
undefined.
To support legacy software using these instructions, this patch
register hooks to -
* emulate CP15 barriers and warn the user about their use
* toggle CP15BEN in SCTLR_EL1

arm64: Port SWP/SWPB emulation support from arm
The SWP instruction was deprecated in the ARMv6 architecture. The
ARMv7 multiprocessing extensions mandate that SWP/SWPB instructions
are treated as undefined from reset, with the ability to enable them
through the System Control Register SW bit. With ARMv8, the option to
enable these instructions through System Control Register was dropped
as well.
To support legacy applications using these instructions, port the
emulation of the SWP and SWPB instructions from the arm port to arm64.

arm64: Add framework for legacy instruction emulation
Typically, providing support for legacy instructions requires
emulating the behaviour of instructions whose encodings have become
undefined. If the instructions haven't been removed from the
architecture, there maybe an option in the implementation to turn
on/off the support for these instructions.
Create common infrastructure to support legacy instruction
emulation. In addition to emulation, also provide an option to support
hardware execution when supported. The default execution mode (one of
undef, emulate, hw exeuction) is dependent on the state of the
instruction (deprecated or obsolete) in the architecture and
can specified at the time of registering the instruction handlers. The
runtime state of the emulation can be controlled by writing to
individual nodes in sysctl. The expected default behaviour is
documented as part of this patch.
