Remove EX_TABLE_UA_LOAD_MEM exception handling and replace it with
EX_TABLE_UA_FAULT. Open code the return code check, and also open code
setting of the destination to zero in case of an error. In almost all cases
the compiler is able to optimize the open coded checks away, since all
users of get_users() must check the return code, and are not supposed to
use the result in case of an error.
In addition this allows to change the get_user() inline assembly so that
the "Q" constraint can be used for the destination, instead of only an "a"
constraint. This generates slightly better code.

Rename EX_TABLE_UA_STORE to a more generic EX_TABLE_UA_FAULT
name. This allows to use the extable type also for uaccess inline
assemblies which read from userspace, without causing confusion.

The fixup section was added again by mistake when test_fp_ctl() was
removed. The reason for the removal of the fixup section is described in
commit 484a8ed8b7 ("s390/extable: add dedicated uaccess handler").
Remove it again for the same reason.
Add an exception handler which handles exceptions when the floating point
control register is attempted to be set to invalid values. The exception
handler sets the floating point control register to zero and continues
execution at the specified address.
The new sfpc inline assembly is open-coded to make back porting a bit
easier.

Add new exception table type which is able to handle register
pairs. If an exception is recognized on such an instruction the
specified register pair will be zeroed, and the specified error
register will be modified so it contains -EFAULT, similar to the
existing EX_TABLE_UA_LOAD_REG() macro.

Historically the uaccess code pre-initializes the result of get_user()
(and now also __get_kernel_nofault()) to zero and uses the result as
input parameter for inline assemblies. This is different to what most,
if not all, other architectures are doing, which set the result to
zero within the exception handler in case of a fault.
Use the new extable mechanism and handle zeroing of the result within
the exception handler in case of a fault.

This is more or less a combination of commit 2e77a62cb3 ("arm64:
extable: add a dedicated uaccess handler") and commit 4b5305decc
("x86/extable: Extend extable functionality").
To describe the problem that needs to solved let's cite the full arm64
commit message:
------
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.
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.

Follow arm64, riscv, and x86 and change extable layout to common
"relative table with data". This allows to get rid of s390 specific
code in sorttable.c.
The main difference to before is that extable entries do not contain a
relative function pointer anymore. Instead data and type fields are
added.
The type field is used to indicate which exception handler needs to be
called, while the data field is currently unused.

The normalization pass in the sorting routine of the relative exception
table serves two purposes:
- it ensures that the address fields of the exception table entries are
fully ordered, so that no ambiguities arise between entries with
identical instruction offsets (i.e., when two instructions that are
exactly 8 bytes apart each have an exception table entry associated with
them)
- it ensures that the offsets of both the instruction and the fixup fields
of each entry are relative to their final location after sorting.
Commit eb608fb366 ("s390/exceptions: switch to relative exception table
entries") ported the relative exception table format from x86, but modified
the sorting routine to only normalize the instruction offset field and not
the fixup offset field. The result is that the fixup offset of each entry
will be relative to the original location of the entry before sorting,
likely leading to crashes when those entries are dereferenced.
