x86/asm: Drop unused RDPID macro

Drop the GAS-compatible RDPID macro. RDPID is unsafe in the kernel
because KVM loads guest's TSC_AUX on VM-entry and may not restore the
host's value until the CPU returns to userspace.

See

6a3ea3e68b8a ("x86/entry/64: Do not use RDPID in paranoid entry to accomodate KVM")

for details.

It can always be resurrected from git history, if needed.

crypto: x86 - Remove include/asm/inst.h

Current minimum required version of binutils is 2.23,
which supports PSHUFB, PCLMULQDQ, PEXTRD, AESKEYGENASSIST,
AESIMC, AESENC, AESENCLAST, AESDEC, AESDECLAST and MOVQ
instruction mnemonics.

Substitute macros from include/asm/inst.h with a proper
instruction mnemonics in various assmbly files from
x86/crypto directory, and remove now unneeded file.

The patch was tested by calculating and comparing sha256sum
hashes of stripped object files before and after the patch,
to be sure that executable code didn't change.

x86/entry/64: Introduce the FIND_PERCPU_BASE macro

GSBASE is used to find per-CPU data in the kernel. But when GSBASE is
unknown, the per-CPU base can be found from the per_cpu_offset table with a
CPU NR. The CPU NR is extracted from the limit field of the CPUNODE entry
in GDT, or by the RDPID instruction. This is a prerequisite for using
FSGSBASE in the low level entry code.

Also, add the GAS-compatible RDPID macro as binutils 2.23 do not support
it. Support is added in version 2.27.

x86/fsgsbase: Revert FSGSBASE support

The FSGSBASE series turned out to have serious bugs and there is still an
open issue which is not fully understood yet.

The confidence in those changes has become close to zero especially as the
test cases which have been shipped with that series were obviously never
run before sending the final series out to LKML.

./fsgsbase_64 >/dev/null
Segmentation fault

As the merge window is close, the only sane decision is to revert FSGSBASE
support. The revert is necessary as this branch has been merged into
perf/core already and rebasing all of that a few days before the merge
window is not the most brilliant idea.

I could definitely slap myself for not noticing the test case fail when
merging that series, but TBH my expectations weren't that low back
then. Won't happen again.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

x86, crc32-pclmul: Fix build with older binutils

binutils prior to 2.18 (e.g. the ones found on SLE10) don't support
assembling PEXTRD, so a macro based approach like the one for PCLMULQDQ
in the same file should be used.

This requires making the helper macros capable of recognizing 32-bit
general purpose register operands.

crypto: aesni-intel - Fix CTR optimization build failure with gas 2.16.1

Andrew Morton reported that AES-NI CTR optimization failed to compile
with gas 2.16.1, the error message is as follow:

arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel_asm.S:753: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `movq'

To fix this, a gas macro is defined to assemble movq with 64bit
general purpose registers and XMM registers. The macro will generate
the raw .byte sequence for needed instructions.

x86: Generate .byte code for some new instructions via gas macro

It will take some time for binutils (gas) to support some newly added
instructions, such as SSE4.1 instructions or the AES-NI instructions
found in upcoming Intel CPU.

To make the source code can be compiled by old binutils, .byte code is
used instead of the assembly instruction. But the readability and
flexibility of raw .byte code is not good.

This patch solves the issue of raw .byte code via generating it via
assembly instruction like gas macro. The syntax is as close as
possible to real assembly instruction.

Some helper macros such as MODRM is not a full feature
implementation. It can be extended when necessary.
