753b323687 arm64: extable: add load_unaligned_zeropad() handler
For inline assembly, we place exception fixups out-of-line in the
`.fixup` section such that these are out of the way of the fast path.
This has a few drawbacks:

* Since the fixup code is anonymous, backtraces will symbolize fixups as
  offsets from the nearest prior symbol, currently
  `__entry_tramp_text_end`. This is confusing, and painful to debug
  without access to the relevant vmlinux.

* Since the exception handler adjusts the PC to execute the fixup, and
  the fixup uses a direct branch back into the function it fixes,
  backtraces of fixups miss the original function. This is confusing,
  and violates requirements for RELIABLE_STACKTRACE (and therefore
  LIVEPATCH).

* Inline assembly and associated fixups are generated from templates,
  and we have many copies of logically identical fixups which only
  differ in which specific registers are written to and which address is
  branched to at the end of the fixup. This is potentially wasteful of
  I-cache resources, and makes it hard to add additional logic to fixups
  without significant bloat.

* In the case of load_unaligned_zeropad(), the logic in the fixup
  requires a temporary register that we must allocate even in the
  fast-path where it will not be used.

This patch address all four concerns for load_unaligned_zeropad() fixups
by adding a dedicated exception handler which performs the fixup logic
in exception context and subsequent returns back after the faulting
instruction. For the moment, the fixup logic is identical to the old
assembly fixup logic, but in future we could enhance this by taking the
ESR and FAR into account to constrain the faults we try to fix up, or to
specialize fixups for MTE tag check faults.

Other than backtracing, there should be no functional change as a result
of this patch.

2e77a62cb3 arm64: extable: add a dedicated uaccess handler
For inline assembly, we place exception fixups out-of-line in the
`.fixup` section such that these are out of the way of the fast path.
This has a few drawbacks:

* Since the fixup code is anonymous, backtraces will symbolize fixups as
  offsets from the nearest prior symbol, currently
  `__entry_tramp_text_end`. This is confusing, and painful to debug
  without access to the relevant vmlinux.

* Since the exception handler adjusts the PC to execute the fixup, and
  the fixup uses a direct branch back into the function it fixes,
  backtraces of fixups miss the original function. This is confusing,

  branched to at the end of the fixup. This is potentially wasteful of
  I-cache resources, and makes it hard to add additional logic to fixups
  without significant bloat.

This patch address all three concerns for inline uaccess fixups by
adding a dedicated exception handler which updates registers in
exception context and subsequent returns back into the function which
faulted, removing the need for fixups specialized to each faulting
instruction.

Other than backtracing, there should be no functional change as a result
of this patch.

d6e2cc5647 arm64: extable: add type and data fields
Subsequent patches will add specialized handlers for fixups, in addition
to the simple PC fixup and BPF handlers we have today. In preparation,
this patch adds a new `type` field to struct exception_table_entry, and
uses this to distinguish the fixup and BPF cases. A `data` field is also
added so that subsequent patches can associate data specific to each
exception site (e.g. register numbers).

Handlers are named ex_handler_*() for consistency, following the exmaple
of x86. At the same time, get_ex_fixup() is split out into a helper so
that it can be used by other ex_handler_*() functions ins subsequent
patches.

This patch will increase the size of the exception tables, which will be
remedied by subsequent patches removing redundant fixup code. There
should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Since each entry is now 12 bytes in size, we must reduce the alignment
of each entry from `.align 3` (i.e. 8 bytes) to `.align 2` (i.e. 4
bytes), which is the natrual alignment of the `insn` and `fixup` fields.
The current 8-byte alignment is a holdover from when the `insn` and
`fixup` fields was 8 bytes, and while not harmful has not been necessary
since commit:

  6c94f27ac8 ("arm64: switch to relative exception tables")

Similarly, RO_EXCEPTION_TABLE_ALIGN is dropped to 4 bytes.

Concurrently with this patch, x86's exception table entry format is
being updated (similarly to a 12-byte format, with 32-bytes of absolute
data). Once both have been merged it should be possible to unify the
sorttable logic for the two.

819771cc28 arm64: extable: consolidate definitions
In subsequent patches we'll alter the structure and usage of struct
exception_table_entry. For inline assembly, we create these using the
`_ASM_EXTABLE()` CPP macro defined in <asm/uaccess.h>, and for plain
assembly code we use the `_asm_extable()` GAS macro defined in
<asm/assembler.h>, which are largely identical save for different
escaping and stringification requirements.

This patch moves the common definitions to a new <asm/asm-extable.h>
header, so that it's easier to keep the two in-sync, and to remove the
implication that these are only used for uaccess helpers (as e.g.
load_unaligned_zeropad() is only used on kernel memory, and depends upon
`_ASM_EXTABLE()`.

At the same time, a few minor modifications are made for clarity and in
preparation for subsequent patches:

* The structure creation is factored out into an `__ASM_EXTABLE_RAW()`
  macro. This will make it easier to support different fixup variants in
  subsequent patches without needing to update all users of
  `_ASM_EXTABLE()`, and makes it easier to see tha the CPP and GAS
  variants of the macros are structurally identical.

  For the CPP macro, the stringification of fields is left to the
  wrapper macro, `_ASM_EXTABLE()`, as in subsequent patches it will be
  necessary to stringify fields in wrapper macros to safely concatenate
  strings which cannot be token-pasted together in CPP.

* The fields of the structure are created separately on their own lines.
  This will make it easier to add/remove/modify individual fields
  clearly.

* Additional parentheses are added around the use of macro arguments in
  field definitions to avoid any potential problems with evaluation due
  to operator precedence, and to make errors upon misuse clearer.

* USER() is moved into <asm/asm-uaccess.h>, as it is not required by all
  assembly code, and is already refered to by comments in that file.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
