Similar to the ARM64 commit 3505f30fb6a9s ("ARM64 / ACPI: If we chose
to boot from acpi then disable FDT"), let's not do DT hardware probing
if ACPI is enabled in early boot. This avoids errors caused by
repeated driver probing.

[pjw@kernel.org: cleaned up patch description and subject]
Signed-off-by: Paul Walmsley <pjw@kernel.org>
The binary GCD implementation uses FFS (find first set), which benefits
from hardware support for the ctz instruction, provided by the Zbb
extension on RISC-V. Without Zbb, this results in slower
software-emulated behavior.
Previously, RISC-V always used the binary GCD, regardless of actual
hardware support. This patch improves runtime efficiency by disabling the
efficient_ffs_key static branch when Zbb is either not enabled in the
kernel (config) or not supported on the executing CPU. This selects the
odd-even GCD implementation, which is faster in the absence of efficient
FFS.
This change ensures the most suitable GCD algorithm is chosen dynamically
based on actual hardware capabilities.

The /proc/iomem represents the kernel's memory map. Regions marked
with "Reserved" tells the user that the range should not be tampered
with. Kexec-tools, when using the older kexec_load syscall relies on
the "Reserved" regions to build the memory segments, that will be the
target of the new kexec'd kernel.
The RISC-V port tries to expose all reserved regions to userland, but
some regions were not properly exposed: Regions that resided in both
the "regular" and reserved memory block, e.g. the EFI Memory Map. A
missing entry could result in reserved memory being overwritten.
It turns out, that arm64, and loongarch had a similar issue a while
back:
commit d91680e687 ("arm64: Fix /proc/iomem for reserved but not memory regions")
commit 50d7ba36b9 ("arm64: export memblock_reserve()d regions via /proc/iomem")
Similar to the other ports, resolve the issue by splitting the regions
in an arch initcall, since we need a working allocator.

__pa() is only intended to be used for linear map addresses and using
it for initial_boot_params which is in fixmap for arm64 will give an
incorrect value. Hence save the physical address when it is known at
boot time when calling early_init_dt_scan for arm64 and use it at kexec
time instead of converting the virtual address using __pa().
Note that arm64 doesn't need the FDT region reserved in the DT as the
kernel explicitly reserves the passed in FDT. Therefore, only a debug
warning is fixed with this change.

Now that GENERIC_CPU_DEVICES calls arch_register_cpu(), which can be
overridden by the arch code, switch over to this to allow common code
to choose when the register_cpu() call is made.
This allows topology_init() to be removed.
This is an intermediate step to the logic being moved to drivers/acpi,
where GENERIC_CPU_DEVICES will do the work when booting with acpi=off.
This patch also has the effect of moving the registration of CPUs from
subsys to driver core initialisation, prior to any initcalls running.

After the vga console no longer relies on global screen_info, there are
only two remaining use cases:
- on the x86 architecture, it is used for multiple boot methods
(bzImage, EFI, Xen, kexec) to commucate the initial VGA or framebuffer
settings to a number of device drivers.
- on other architectures, it is only used as part of the EFI stub,
and only for the three sysfb framebuffers (simpledrm, simplefb, efifb).
Remove the duplicate data structure definitions by moving it into the
efi-init.c file that sets it up initially for the EFI case, leaving x86
as an exception that retains its own definition for non-EFI boots.
The added #ifdefs here are optional, I added them to further limit the
reach of screen_info to configurations that have at least one of the
users enabled.

On non-x86 architectures, the screen_info variable is generally only
used for the VGA console where supported, and in some cases the EFI
framebuffer or vga16fb.
Now that we have a definite list of which architectures actually use it
for what, use consistent #ifdef checks so the global variable is only
defined when it is actually used on those architectures.
Loongarch and riscv have no support for vgacon or vga16fb, but
they support EFI firmware, so only that needs to be checked, and the
initialization can be removed because that is handled by EFI.
IA64 has both vgacon and EFI, though EFI apparently never uses
a framebuffer here.

When Zicboz is present, enable its instruction (cbo.zero) in
usermode by setting its respective senvcfg bit. We don't bother
trying to set this bit per-task, which would also require an
interface for tasks to request enabling and/or disabling. Instead,
permanently set the bit for each hart which has the extension when
bringing it online.
This patch also introduces riscv_cpu_has_extension_[un]likely()
functions to check a specific hart's ISA bitmap for extensions.
Prior to checking the specific hart's bitmap in these functions
we try the bitmap which represents the LCD of extensions, but only
when we know it will use its optimized, alternatives path by gating
its call on CONFIG_RISCV_ALTERNATIVE. When alternatives are used, the
compiler ensures that the invocation of the LCD search becomes a
constant true or false. When it's true, even the new functions will
completely vanish from their callsites. OTOH, when the LCD check is
false, we need to do a search of the hart's ISA bitmap. Had we also
checked the LCD bitmap without the use of alternatives, then we would
have ended up with two bitmap searches instead of one.

Alexandre Ghiti <alexghiti@rivosinc.com> says:
The following KASLR implementation allows to randomize the kernel mapping:
- virtually: we expect the bootloader to provide a seed in the device-tree
- physically: only implemented in the EFI stub, it relies on the firmware to
provide a seed using EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL. arm64 has a similar implementation
hence the patch 3 factorizes KASLR related functions for riscv to take
advantage.
The new virtual kernel location is limited by the early page table that only
has one PUD and with the PMD alignment constraint, the kernel can only take
< 512 positions.
