It turns out that some Android versions hardcode the SYSENTER
calling convention. This is buggy and will cause problems no
matter what the kernel does. Nonetheless, we should try to
support it.
Credit goes to Linus for pointing out a clean way to handle
the SYSENTER/SYSCALL clobber differences while preserving
straightforward DWARF annotations.
I believe that the original offending Android commit was:

When I rewrote entry_INT80_32, I thought that int80 was an
interrupt gate. It's a trap gate. *facepalm*
Thanks to Brian Gerst for pointing out that it's better to
change the entry code than to change the gate type.

If CS, SS and IP are as expected and FLAGS is compatible with
SYSRETL, then return from fast compat syscalls (both SYSCALL and
SYSENTER) using SYSRETL.
Unlike native 64-bit opportunistic SYSRET, this is not invisible
to user code: RCX and R8-R15 end up in a different state than
shown saved in pt_regs. To compensate, we only do this when
returning to the vDSO fast syscall return path. This won't
interfere with syscall restart, as we won't use SYSRETL when
returning to the INT80 restart instruction.

Linus noticed that the early return check was missing
_TIF_USER_RETURN_NOTIFY. If the only work flag was
_TIF_USER_RETURN_NOTIFY, we'd skip user return notifiers. Fix
it. (This is the only missing bit.)
This fixes double faults on a KVM host. It's the same issue as
last time, except that this time it's very easy to trigger.
Apparently no one uses -next as a KVM host.
( I'm still not quite sure what it is that KVM does that blows up
so badly if we miss a user return notifier. My best guess is that KVM
lets KERNEL_GS_BASE (i.e. the user's gs base) be negative and fixes
it up in a user return notifier. If we actually end up in user mode
with a negative gs base, we blow up pretty badly. )

Fixes: c5c46f59e4 ("x86/entry: Add new, comprehensible entry and exit handlers written in C")
Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/3f801104d24ee7a6bb1446408d9950777aa63277.1436995419.git.luto@kernel.org

The current x86 entry and exit code, written in a mixture of assembly and
C code, is incomprehensible due to being open-coded in a lot of places
without coherent documentation.
It appears to work primary by luck and duct tape: i.e. obvious runtime
failures were fixed on-demand, without re-thinking the design.
Due to those reasons our confidence level in that code is low, and it is
very difficult to incrementally improve.
Add new code written in C, in preparation for simply deleting the old
entry code.
prepare_exit_to_usermode() is a new function that will handle all
slow path exits to user mode. It is called with IRQs disabled
and it leaves us in a state in which it is safe to immediately
return to user mode. IRQs must not be re-enabled at any point
after prepare_exit_to_usermode() returns and user mode is actually
entered. (We can, of course, fail to enter user mode and treat
that failure as a fresh entry to kernel mode.)
All callers of do_notify_resume() will be migrated to call
prepare_exit_to_usermode() instead; prepare_exit_to_usermode() needs
to do everything that do_notify_resume() does today, but it also
takes care of scheduling and context tracking. Unlike
do_notify_resume(), it does not need to be called in a loop.
syscall_return_slowpath() is exactly what it sounds like: it will
be called on any syscall exit slow path. It will replace
syscall_trace_leave() and it calls prepare_exit_to_usermode() on the
way out.

Changing the x86 context tracking hooks is dangerous because
there are no good checks that we track our context correctly.
Add a helper to check that we're actually in CONTEXT_USER when
we enter from user mode and wire it up for syscall entries.
Subsequent patches will wire this up for all non-NMI entries as
well. NMIs are their own special beast and cannot currently
switch overall context tracking state. Instead, they have their
own special RCU hooks.
This is a tiny speedup if !CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING (removes a
branch) and a tiny slowdown if CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACING (adds a
layer of indirection). Eventually, we should fix up the core
context tracking code to supply a function that does what we
want (and can be much simpler than user_exit), which will enable
us to get rid of the extra call.
