Expose FPMR in the signal context on systems where it is supported. The
kernel validates the exact size of the FPSIMD registers so we can't readily
add it to fpsimd_context without disruption.

Add a new signal context type for ZT which is present in the signal frame
when ZA is enabled and ZT is supported by the system. In order to account
for the possible addition of further ZT registers in the future we make the
number of registers variable in the ABI, though currently the only possible
number is 1. We could just use a bare list head for the context since the
number of registers can be inferred from the size of the context but for
usability and future extensibility we define a header with the number of
registers and some reserved fields in it.

Szabolcs Nagy has pointed out that most of our signal frame magic numbers
are chosen to be meaningful ASCII when dumped to aid manual parsing. This
seems sensible since it might help someone parsing things out, let's
document it so people implementing new signal contexts are aware of it and
are more likely to follow it.

Implement support for ZA in signal handling in a very similar way to how
we implement support for SVE registers, using a signal context structure
with optional register state after it. Where present this register state
stores the ZA matrix as a series of horizontal vectors numbered from 0 to
VL/8 in the endinanness independent format used for vectors.
As with SVE we do not allow changes in the vector length during signal
return but we do allow ZA to be enabled or disabled.

When in streaming mode we have the same set of SVE registers as we do in
regular SVE mode with the exception of FFR and the use of the SME vector
length. Provide signal handling for these registers by taking one of the
reserved words in the SVE signal context as a flags field and defining a
flag which is set for streaming mode. When the flag is set the vector
length is set to the streaming mode vector length and we save and
restore streaming mode data. We support entering or leaving streaming
mode based on the value of the flag but do not support changing the
vector length, this is not currently supported SVE signal handling.
We could instead allocate a separate record in the signal frame for the
streaming mode SVE context but this inflates the size of the maximal signal
frame required and adds complication when validating signal frames from
userspace, especially given the current structure of the code.
Any implementation of support for streaming mode vectors in signals will
have some potential for causing issues for applications that attempt to
handle SVE vectors in signals, use streaming mode but do not understand
streaming mode in their signal handling code, it is hard to identify a
case that is clearly better than any other - they all have cases where
they could cause unexpected register corruption or faults.

The in-memory representation of SVE and FPSIMD registers is
different: the FPSIMD V-registers are stored as single 128-bit
host-endian values, whereas SVE registers are stored in an
endianness-invariant byte order.
This means that the two representations differ when running on a
big-endian host. But we blindly copy data from one representation
to another when converting between the two, resulting in the
register contents being unintentionally byteswapped in certain
situations. Currently this can be triggered by the first SVE
instruction after a syscall, for example (though the potential
trigger points may vary in future).
So, fix the conversion functions fpsimd_to_sve(), sve_to_fpsimd()
and sve_sync_from_fpsimd_zeropad() to swab where appropriate.
There is no common swahl128() or swab128() that we could use here.
Maybe it would be worth making this generic, but for now add a
simple local hack.
Since the byte order differences are exposed in ABI, also clarify
the documentation.

Currently, <uapi/asm/sigcontext.h> provides common definitions for
describing SVE context structures that are also used by the ptrace
definitions in <uapi/asm/ptrace.h>.
For this reason, a #include of <asm/sigcontext.h> was added in
ptrace.h, but it this turns out that this can interact badly with
userspace code that tries to include ptrace.h on top of the libc
headers (which may provide their own shadow definitions for
sigcontext.h).
To make the headers easier for userspace to consume, this patch
bounces the common definitions into an __SVE_* namespace and moves
them to a backend header <uapi/asm/sve_context.h> that can be
included by the other headers as appropriate. This should allow
ptrace.h to be used alongside libc's sigcontext.h (if any) without
ill effects.
This should make the situation unambiguous: <asm/sigcontext.h> is
the header to include for the sigframe-specific definitions, while
<asm/ptrace.h> is the header to include for ptrace-specific
definitions.
To avoid conflicting with existing usage, <asm/sigcontext.h>
remains the canonical way to get the common definitions for
SVE_VQ_MIN, sve_vq_from_vl() etc., both in userspace and in the
kernel: relying on these being defined as a side effect of
including just <asm/ptrace.h> was never intended to be safe.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"The big highlight is support for the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE)
which required extensive ABI work to ensure we don't break existing
applications by blowing away their signal stack with the rather large
new vector context (<= 2 kbit per vector register). There's further
work to be done optimising things like exception return, but the ABI
is solid now.
Much of the line count comes from some new PMU drivers we have, but
they're pretty self-contained and I suspect we'll have more of them in
future.
Plenty of acronym soup here:
- initial support for the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE)
- improved handling for SError interrupts (required to handle RAS
events)
- enable GCC support for 128-bit integer types
- remove kernel text addresses from backtraces and register dumps
- use of WFE to implement long delay()s
- ACPI IORT updates from Lorenzo Pieralisi

This patch defines the representation that will be used for the SVE
register state in the signal frame, and implements support for
saving and restoring the SVE registers around signals.
The same layout will also be used for the in-kernel task state.
Due to the variability of the SVE vector length, it is not possible
to define a fixed C struct to describe all the registers. Instead,
Macros are defined in sigcontext.h to facilitate access to the
parts of the structure.

Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.
Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.
GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.
Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format
is:
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)
SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

This patch defines an extra_context signal frame record that can be
used to describe an expanded signal frame, and modifies the context
block allocator and signal frame setup and parsing code to create,
populate, parse and decode this block as necessary.
To avoid abuse by userspace, parse_user_sigframe() attempts to
ensure that:
* no more than one extra_context is accepted;
* the extra context data is a sensible size, and properly placed
and aligned.
The extra_context data is required to start at the first 16-byte
aligned address immediately after the dummy terminator record
following extra_context in rt_sigframe.__reserved[] (as ensured
during signal delivery). This serves as a sanity-check that the
signal frame has not been moved or copied without taking the extra
data into account.

This patch factors out the allocator for signal frame optional
records into a separate function, to ensure consistency and
facilitate later expansion.
No overrun checking is currently done, because the allocation is in
user memory and anyway the kernel never tries to allocate enough
space in the signal frame yet for an overrun to occur. This
behaviour will be refined in future patches.
The approach taken in this patch to allocation of the terminator
record is not very clean: this will also be replaced in subsequent
patches.
For future extension, a comment is added in sigcontext.h
documenting the current static allocations in __reserved[]. This
will be important for determining under what circumstances
userspace may or may not see an expanded signal frame.
