Introduce CC_FLAGS_DIALECT to make it easier to update the various
places in the tree that rely on the GNU C standard and Microsoft
extensions flags atomically. All remaining uses of '-std=gnu11' and
'-fms-extensions' are in the tools directory (which has its own build
system) and other standalone Makefiles. This will allow the kernel to
use a narrower option to enable the Microsoft anonymous tagged structure
extension in a simpler manner. Place the CC_FLAGS_DIALECT block after
the configuration include (so that a future change can move the
selection of the flag to Kconfig) but before the
arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile include (so that CC_FLAGS_DIALECT is available
for use in those Makefiles).

CONFIG_EFI_SBAT_FILE can be a relative path. When compiling using a different
output directory (O=) the build currently fails because it can't find the
filename set in CONFIG_EFI_SBAT_FILE:

<title>kbuild: Add '-fms-extensions' to areas with dedicated CFLAGS</title>

<id>5ff8ad3909524ad55297a434f87c238224825bf4</id>
<content type='text'>
This is a follow up to commit c4781dc3d1cf ("Kbuild: enable
-fms-extensions") but in a separate change due to being substantially
different from the initial submission.

There are many places within the kernel that use their own CFLAGS
instead of the main KBUILD_CFLAGS, meaning code written with the main
kernel's use of '-fms-extensions' in mind that may be tangentially
included in these areas will result in "error: declaration does not
declare anything" messages from the compiler.

Add '-fms-extensions' to all these areas to ensure consistency, along
with -Wno-microsoft-anon-tag to silence clang's warning about use of the
extension that the kernel cares about using. parisc does not build with
clang so it does not need this warning flag. LoongArch does not need it
either because -W flags from KBUILD_FLAGS are pulled into cflags-vdso.

<title>efistub/x86: Remap inittext read-execute when needed</title>

<id>e7b88bc0051c5062bdd73b58837cf277d0057358</id>
<content type='text'>
Recent EFI x86 systems are more strict when it comes to mapping boot
images, and require that mappings are either read-write or read-execute.

Now that the boot code is being cleaned up and refactored, most of it is
being moved into .init.text [where it arguably belongs] but that implies
that when booting on such strict EFI firmware, we need to take care to
map .init.text (and the .altinstr_aux section that follows it)
read-execute as well.

Similar to zboot architectures, implement support for embedding SBAT data
for x86. Put '.sbat' section in between '.data' and '.text' as the former
also covers '.bss' and '.pgtable' and thus must be the last one in the
file.

As a first step towards disentangling the SEV #VC handling code -which
is shared between the decompressor and the core kernel- from the SEV
startup code, move the decompressor's copy of the instruction decoder
into a separate source file.

Code movement only - no functional change intended.

Move the early GDT/IDT setup code that runs long before the kernel
virtual mapping is up into arch/x86/boot/startup/, and build it in a way
that ensures that the code tolerates being called from the 1:1 mapping
of memory. The code itself is left unchanged by this patch.

Also tweak the sed symbol matching pattern in the decompressor to match
on lower case 't' or 'b', as these will be emitted by Clang for symbols
with hidden linkage.

<title>x86/boot: Move the 5-level paging trampoline into /startup</title>

The 5-level paging trampoline is used by both the EFI stub and the
traditional decompressor. Move it out of the decompressor sources into
the newly minted arch/x86/boot/startup/ sub-directory which will hold
startup code that may be shared between the decompressor, the EFI stub
and the kernel proper, and needs to tolerate being called during early
boot, before the kernel virtual mapping has been created.

This will allow the 5-level paging trampoline to be used by EFI boot
images such as zboot that omit the traditional decompressor entirely.
