powerpc/64s: Use early_mmu_has_feature() in set_kuap()
When implementing the KUAP support on Radix we fixed one case where mmu_has_feature() was being called too early in boot via __put_user_size(). However since then some new code in linux-next has created a new path via which we can end up calling mmu_has_feature() too early. On P9 this leads to crashes early in boot if we have both PPC_KUAP and CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL_FEATURE_CHECK_DEBUG enabled. Our early boot code calls printk() which calls probe_kernel_read(), that does a __copy_from_user_inatomic() which calls into set_kuap() and that uses mmu_has_feature(). At that point in boot we haven't patched MMU features yet so the debug code in mmu_has_feature() complains, and calls printk(). At that point we recurse, eg: ... dump_stack+0xdc probe_kernel_read+0x1a4 check_pointer+0x58 ... printk+0x40 dump_stack_print_info+0xbc dump_stack+0x8 probe_kernel_read+0x1a4 probe_kernel_read+0x19c check_pointer+0x58 ... printk+0x40 cpufeatures_process_feature+0xc8 scan_cpufeatures_subnodes+0x380 of_scan_flat_dt_subnodes+0xb4 dt_cpu_ftrs_scan_callback+0x158 of_scan_flat_dt+0xf0 dt_cpu_ftrs_scan+0x3c early_init_devtree+0x360 early_setup+0x9c And so on for infinity, symptom is a dead system. Even more fun is what happens when using the hash MMU (ie. p8 or p9 with Radix disabled), and when we don't have CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL_FEATURE_CHECK_DEBUG enabled. With the debug disabled we don't check if static keys have been initialised, we just rely on the jump label. But the jump label defaults to true so we just whack the AMR even though Radix is not enabled. Clearing the AMR is fine, but after we've done the user copy we write (0b11 << 62) into AMR. When using hash that makes all pages with key zero no longer readable or writable. All kernel pages implicitly have key zero, and so all of a sudden the kernel can't read or write any of its memory. Again dead system. In the medium term we have several options for fixing this. probe_kernel_read() doesn't need to touch AMR at all, it's not doing a user access after all, but it uses __copy_from_user_inatomic() just because it's easy, we could fix that. It would also be safe to default to not writing to the AMR during early boot, until we've detected features. But it's not clear that flipping all the MMU features to static_key_false won't introduce other bugs. But for now just switch to early_mmu_has_feature() in set_kuap(), that avoids all the problems with jump labels. It adds the overhead of a global lookup and test, but that's probably trivial compared to the writes to the AMR anyway.
