Arm TC2 fails cpu hotplug stress test.

This issue was tracked down to a missing copy of the new affinity
cpumask for the vexpress-spc interrupt into struct
irq_common_data.affinity when the interrupt is migrated in
migrate_one_irq().

Fix it by replacing the arm specific hotplug cpu migration with the
generic irq code.

This is the counterpart implementation to commit 217d453d473c ("arm64:
fix a migrating irq bug when hotplug cpu").

Tested with cpu hotplug stress test on Arm TC2 (multi_v7_defconfig plus
CONFIG_ARM_BIG_LITTLE_CPUFREQ=y and CONFIG_ARM_VEXPRESS_SPC_CPUFREQ=y).
The vexpress-spc interrupt (irq=22) on this board is affine to CPU0.
Its affinity cpumask now changes correctly e.g. from 0 to 1-4 when
CPU0 is hotplugged out.

<title>jump_label: move 'asm goto' support test to Kconfig</title>

Currently, CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL just means "I _want_ to use jump label".

The jump label is controlled by HAVE_JUMP_LABEL, which is defined
like this:

  #if defined(CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO) &amp;&amp; defined(CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL)
  # define HAVE_JUMP_LABEL
  #endif

We can improve this by testing 'asm goto' support in Kconfig, then
make JUMP_LABEL depend on CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO.

Ugly #ifdef HAVE_JUMP_LABEL will go away, and CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL will
match to the real kernel capability.

 "Included in this update:

   - Florian Fainelli noticed that userspace segfaults caused by the
     lack of kernel-userspace helpers was hard to diagnose; we now issue
     a warning when userspace tries to use the helpers but the kernel
     has them disabled.

   - Ben Dooks wants compatibility for the old ATAG serial number with
     DT systems.

   - Some cleanup of assembly by Nicolas Pitre.

   - User accessors optimisation from Vincent Whitchurch.

   - More robust kdump on SMP systems from Yufen Wang.

   - Sebastian Andrzej Siewior noticed problems with the SMP "boot_lock"
     on RT kernels, and so we convert the Versatile series of platforms
     to use a raw spinlock instead, consolidating the Versatile
     implementation. We entirely remove the boot_lock on OMAP systems,
     where it's unnecessary. Further patches for other systems will be
     submitted for the following merge window.

   - Start switching old StrongARM-11x0 systems to use gpiolib rather
     than their private GPIO implementation - mostly PCMCIA bits.

   - ARM Kconfig cleanups.

   - Cleanup a mostly harmless mistake in the recent Spectre patch in
     4.20 (which had the effect that data that can be placed into the
     init sections was incorrectly always placed in the rodata section)"

<title>Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function</title>

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

checkpatch.pl reports the following:

  WARNING: struct kgdb_arch should normally be const

This report makes sense, as all other ops struct, this
one should also be const. This patch does the change.

<title>kgdb: Fix kgdb_roundup_cpus() for arches who used smp_call_function()</title>

When I had lockdep turned on and dropped into kgdb I got a nice splat
on my system.  Specifically it hit:
  DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(current-&gt;hardirq_context)

Specifically it looked like this:
  sysrq: SysRq : DEBUG
  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(current-&gt;hardirq_context)

Looking closely at it, it seems like a really bad idea to be calling
local_irq_enable() in kgdb_roundup_cpus().  If nothing else that seems
like it could violate spinlock semantics and cause a deadlock.

Instead, let's use a private csd alongside
smp_call_function_single_async() to round up the other CPUs.  Using
smp_call_function_single_async() doesn't require interrupts to be
enabled so we can remove the offending bit of code.

In order to avoid duplicating this across all the architectures that
use the default kgdb_roundup_cpus(), we'll add a "weak" implementation
to debug_core.c.

Looking at all the people who previously had copies of this code,
there were a few variants.  I've attempted to keep the variants
working like they used to.  Specifically:
* For arch/arc we passed NULL to kgdb_nmicallback() instead of
  get_irq_regs().
* For arch/mips there was a bit of extra code around
  kgdb_nmicallback()

NOTE: In this patch we will still get into trouble if we try to round
up a CPU that failed to round up before.  We'll try to round it up
again and potentially hang when we try to grab the csd lock.  That's
not new behavior but we'll still try to do better in a future patch.

<title>kgdb: Remove irq flags from roundup</title>

The function kgdb_roundup_cpus() was passed a parameter that was
documented as:

&gt; the flags that will be used when restoring the interrupts. There is
&gt; local_irq_save() call before kgdb_roundup_cpus().

Nobody used those flags.  Anyone who wanted to temporarily turn on
interrupts just did local_irq_enable() and local_irq_disable() without
looking at them.  So we can definitely remove the flags.
