<title>arm64: mm: avoid name clash in __page_to_voff()</title>

The arm64 __page_to_voff() macro takes a parameter called 'page', and
also refers to 'struct page'. Thus, if the value passed in is not
called 'page', we'll refer to the wrong struct name (which might not
exist).

<id>488f94d7212b00a2ec72fb886b155f1b04c5aa98</id>
<content type='text'>
Current KVM world switch code is unintentionally setting wrong bits to
CNTHCTL_EL2 when E2H == 1, which may allow guest OS to access physical
timer.  Bit positions of CNTHCTL_EL2 are changing depending on
HCR_EL2.E2H bit.  EL1PCEN and EL1PCTEN are 1st and 0th bits when E2H is
not set, but they are 11th and 10th bits respectively when E2H is set.

In fact, on VHE we only need to set those bits once, not for every world
switch. This is because the host kernel runs in EL2 with HCR_EL2.TGE ==
1, which makes those bits have no effect for the host kernel execution.
So we just set those bits once for guests, and that's it.

<title>arm64: assembler: make adr_l work in modules under KASLR</title>

When CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL=y, the offset between loaded
modules and the core kernel may exceed 4 GB, putting symbols exported
by the core kernel out of the reach of the ordinary adrp/add instruction
pairs used to generate relative symbol references. So make the adr_l
macro emit a movz/movk sequence instead when executing in module context.

While at it, remove the pointless special case for the stack pointer.

<title>arm64: restore get_current() optimisation</title>

Commit c02433dd6de32f04 ("arm64: split thread_info from task stack")
inverted the relationship between get_current() and
current_thread_info(), with sp_el0 now holding the current task_struct
rather than the current thead_info. The new implementation of
get_current() prevents the compiler from being able to optimize repeated
calls to either, resulting in a noticeable penalty in some
microbenchmarks.

This patch restores the previous optimisation by implementing
get_current() in the same way as our old current_thread_info(), using a
non-volatile asm statement.
