With this change, on SYSCALL64 code path we are now populating
pt_regs->cs, pt_regs->ss and pt_regs->rcx unconditionally and
therefore don't need to do that in FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK.
We lose a number of large instructions there:
text data bss dec hex filename
13298 0 0 13298 33f2 entry_64_before.o
12978 0 0 12978 32b2 entry_64.o
What's more important, we convert two "MOVQ $imm,off(%rsp)" to
"PUSH $imm" (the ones which fill pt_regs->cs,ss).
Before this patch, placing them on fast path was slowing it down
by two cycles: this form of MOV is very large, 12 bytes, and
this probably reduces decode bandwidth to one instruction per cycle
when CPU sees them.
Therefore they were living in FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK instead (away
from fast path).
"PUSH $imm" is a small 2-byte instruction. Moving it to fast path does
not slow it down in my measurements.

PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) was set up in a way where it points
five stack slots below the top of stack.
Presumably, it was done to avoid one "sub $5*8,%rsp"
in syscall/sysenter code paths, where iret frame needs to be
created by hand.
Ironically, none of them benefits from this optimization,
since all of them need to allocate additional data on stack
(struct pt_regs), so they still have to perform subtraction.
This patch eliminates KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET.
PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) now points directly to top of stack.
pt_regs allocations are adjusted to allocate iret frame as well.
Hopefully we can merge it later with 32-bit specific
PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_current_top_of_stack) variable...
Net result in generated code is that constants in several insns
are changed.
This change is necessary for changing struct pt_regs creation
in SYSCALL64 code path from MOV to PUSH instructions.

This changes the THREAD_INFO() definition and all its callsites
so that they do not count stack position from
(top of stack - KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET), but from top of stack.
Semi-mysterious expressions THREAD_INFO(%rsp,RIP) - "why RIP??"
are now replaced by more logical THREAD_INFO(%rsp,SIZEOF_PTREGS)
- "calculate thread_info's address using information that
rsp is SIZEOF_PTREGS bytes below top of stack".
While at it, replace "(off)-THREAD_SIZE(reg)" with equivalent
"((off)-THREAD_SIZE)(reg)". The form without parentheses
falsely looks like we invoke THREAD_SIZE() macro.
Improve comment atop THREAD_INFO macro definition.
This patch does not change generated code (verified by objdump).

Having syscall32/sysenter32 initialization in a separate tiny
function, called from within a function that is already syscall
init specific, serves no real purpose.
Its existense also caused an unintended effect of having
wrmsrl(MSR_CSTAR) performed twice: once we set it to a dummy
function returning -ENOSYS, and immediately after
(if CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION), we set it to point to the proper
syscall32 entry point, ia32_cstar_target.

Both the execve() and sigreturn() family of syscalls have the
ability to change registers in ways that may not be compatabile
with the syscall path they were called from.
In particular, SYSRET and SYSEXIT can't handle non-default %cs and %ss,
and some bits in eflags.
These syscalls have stubs that are hardcoded to jump to the IRET path,
and not return to the original syscall path.
The following commit:
76f5df43ca ("Always allocate a complete "struct pt_regs" on the kernel stack")
recently changed this for some 32-bit compat syscalls, but introduced a bug where
execve from a 32-bit program to a 64-bit program would fail because it still returned
via SYSRETL. This caused Wine to fail when built for both 32-bit and 64-bit.
This patch sets TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME for execve() and sigreturn() so
that the IRET path is always taken on exit to userspace.
