Remove the s390 architecture implementation of probe_kernel_write() and
instead use a new function s390_kernel_write() to modify kernel text and
data everywhere.
The s390 implementation of probe_kernel_write() was potentially broken
since it modified memory in a read-modify-write fashion, which read four
bytes, modified the requested bytes within those four bytes and wrote
the result back.
If two cpus would modify the same four byte area at different locations
within that area, this could lead to corruption.
Right now the only places which called probe_kernel_write() did run within
stop_machine_run. Therefore the scenario can't happen right now, however
that might change at any time.
To fix this rename probe_kernel_write() to s390_kernel_write() which can
have special semantics, like only call it while running within stop_machine().

Make use of gcc's hotpatch support to generate better code for ftrace
function tracing.
The generated code now contains only a six byte nop in each function
prologue instead of a 24 byte code block which will be runtime patched to
support function tracing.
With the new code generation the runtime overhead for supporting function
tracing is close to zero, while the original code did show a significant
performance impact.

Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
"The most notable change for this pull request is the ftrace rework
from Heiko. It brings a small performance improvement and the ground
work to support a new gcc option to replace the mcount blocks with a
single nop.
Two new s390 specific system calls are added to emulate user space
mmio for PCI, an artifact of the how PCI memory is accessed.
Two patches for the memory management with changes to common code.
For KVM mm_forbids_zeropage is added which disables the empty zero
page for an mm that is used by a KVM process. And an optimization,
pmdp_get_and_clear_full is added analog to ptep_get_and_clear_full.
Some micro optimization for the cmpxchg and the spinlock code.
And as usual bug fixes and cleanups"

Add an ftrace_graph_is_dead() check to prepare_ftrace_return() in order to
detect an internal ftrace graph error. This allows to prevent further ftrace
graph handling and hopefully keeps the kernel alive.
This patch is the same like for all other architectures.

If the function tracer is enabled, allow to set kprobes on the first
instruction of a function (which is the function trace caller):
If no kprobe is set handling of enabling and disabling function tracing
of a function simply patches the first instruction. Either it is a nop
(right now it's an unconditional branch, which skips the mcount block),
or it's a branch to the ftrace_caller() function.
If a kprobe is being placed on a function tracer calling instruction
we encode if we actually have a nop or branch in the remaining bytes
after the breakpoint instruction (illegal opcode).
This is possible, since the size of the instruction used for the nop
and branch is six bytes, while the size of the breakpoint is only
two bytes.
Therefore the first two bytes contain the illegal opcode and the last
four bytes contain either "0" for nop or "1" for branch. The kprobes
code will then execute/simulate the correct instruction.
Instruction patching for kprobes and function tracer is always done
with stop_machine(). Therefore we don't have any races where an
instruction is patched concurrently on a different cpu.
Besides that also the program check handler which executes the function
trace caller instruction won't be executed concurrently to any
stop_machine() execution.
This allows to keep full fault based kprobes handling which generates
correct pt_regs contents automatically.

Reduce the number of executed instructions within the mcount block if
function tracing is enabled. We achieve that by using a non-standard
C function call ABI. Since the called function is also written in
assembler this is not a problem.
This also allows to replace the unconditional store at the beginning
of the mcount block with a larl instruction, which doesn't touch
memory.
In theory we could also patch the first instruction of the mcount block
to enable and disable function tracing. However this would break kprobes.
This could be fixed with implementing the "kprobes_on_ftrace" feature;
however keeping the odd jprobes working seems not to be possible without
a lot of code churn. Therefore keep the code easy and simply accept one
wasted 1-cycle "larl" instruction per function prologue.

This code is based on a patch from Vojtech Pavlik.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-s390&m=140438885114413&w=2
The actual implementation now differs significantly:
Instead of adding a second function "ftrace_regs_caller" which would be nearly
identical to the existing ftrace_caller function, the current ftrace_caller
function is now an alias to ftrace_regs_caller and always passes the needed
pt_regs structure and function_trace_op parameters unconditionally.
Besides that also use asm offsets to correctly allocate and access the new
struct pt_regs on the stack.
While at it we can make use of new instruction to get rid of some indirect
loads if compiled for new machines.
The passed struct pt_regs can be changed by the called function and it's new
contents will replace the current contents.
Note: to change the return address the embedded psw member of the pt_regs
structure must be changed. The psw member is right now incomplete, since
the mask part is missing. For all current use cases this should be sufficent.
Providing and restoring a sane mask would mean we need to add an epsw/lpswe
pair to the mcount code. Only these two instruction would cost us ~120 cycles
which currently seems not necessary.

No architecture uses the "data" parameter in ftrace_dyn_arch_init() in any
way, it just sets the value to 0. And this is used as a return value
in the caller -- ftrace_init, which just checks the retval against
zero.
Note there is also "return 0" in every ftrace_dyn_arch_init. So it is
enough to check the retval and remove all the indirect sets of data on
all archs.

Steven Rostedt noted that s390 is the only architecture which calls
ftrace_push_return_trace() before ftrace_graph_entry() and therefore has
the small advantage that trace.depth gets initialized automatically.
However this small advantage isn't worth the difference and possible subtle
breakage that may result from this.
So change s390 to have the same function call order like all other
architectures: first ftrace_graph_entry(), then ftrace_push_return_trace()

Most of the syscalls metadata processing is done from arch.
But these operations are mostly generic accross archs. Especially now
that we have a common variable name that expresses the number of
syscalls supported by an arch: NR_syscalls, the only remaining bits
that need to reside in arch is the syscall nr to addr translation.
v2: Compare syscalls symbols only after the "sys" prefix so that we
avoid spurious mismatches with archs that have syscalls wrappers,
in which case syscalls symbols have "SyS" prefixed aliases.

In case gcc does something funny with the stack frames, or the return
from function code, we would like to detect that.
An arch may implement passing of a variable that is unique to the
function and can be saved on entering a function and can be tested
when exiting the function. Usually the frame pointer can be used for
this purpose.
This patch also implements this for x86. Where it passes in the stack
frame of the parent function, and will test that frame on exit.
There was a case in x86_32 with optimize for size (-Os) where, for a
few functions, gcc would align the stack frame and place a copy of the
return address into it. The function graph tracer modified the copy and
not the actual return address. On return from the funtion, it did not go
to the tracer hook, but returned to the parent. This broke the function
graph tracer, because the return of the parent (where gcc did not do
this funky manipulation) returned to the location that the child function
was suppose to. This caused strange kernel crashes.
This test detected the problem and pointed out where the issue was.
This modifies the parameters of one of the functions that the arch
specific code calls, so it includes changes to arch code to accommodate
the new prototype.
Note, I notice that the parsic arch implements its own push_return_trace.
This is now a generic function and the ftrace_push_return_trace should be
used instead. This patch does not touch that code.
