Commit aa47a7c215e7 ("lib/cpumask: deprecate nr_cpumask_bits") resulted
in the cpumask operations potentially becoming hugely less efficient,
because suddenly the cpumask was always considered to be variable-sized.

The optimization was then later added back in a limited form by commit
6f9c07be9d02 ("lib/cpumask: add FORCE_NR_CPUS config option"), but that
FORCE_NR_CPUS option is not useful in a generic kernel and more of a
special case for embedded situations with fixed hardware.

Instead, just re-introduce the optimization, with some changes.

Instead of depending on CPUMASK_OFFSTACK being false, and then always
using the full constant cpumask width, this introduces three different
cpumask "sizes":

 - the exact size (nr_cpumask_bits) remains identical to nr_cpu_ids.

   This is used for situations where we should use the exact size.

 - the "small" size (small_cpumask_bits) is the NR_CPUS constant if it
   fits in a single word and the bitmap operations thus end up able
   to trigger the "small_const_nbits()" optimizations.

   This is used for the operations that have optimized single-word
   cases that get inlined, notably the bit find and scanning functions.

 - the "large" size (large_cpumask_bits) is the NR_CPUS constant if it
   is an sufficiently small constant that makes simple "copy" and
   "clear" operations more efficient.

   This is arbitrarily set at four words or less.

As a an example of this situation, without this fixed size optimization,
cpumask_clear() will generate code like

        movl    nr_cpu_ids(%rip), %edx
        addq    $63, %rdx
        shrq    $3, %rdx
        andl    $-8, %edx
        callq   memset@PLT

on x86-64, because it would calculate the "exact" number of longwords
that need to be cleared.

In contrast, with this patch, using a MAX_CPU of 64 (which is quite a
reasonable value to use), the above becomes a single

	movq $0,cpumask

instruction instead, because instead of caring to figure out exactly how
many CPU's the system has, it just knows that the cpumask will be a
single word and can just clear it all.

Note that this does end up tightening the rules a bit from the original
version in another way: operations that set bits in the cpumask are now
limited to the actual nr_cpu_ids limit, whereas we used to do the
nr_cpumask_bits thing almost everywhere in the cpumask code.

But if you just clear bits, or scan for bits, we can use the simpler
compile-time constants.

In the process, remove 'cpumask_complement()' and 'for_each_cpu_not()'
which were not useful, and which fundamentally have to be limited to
'nr_cpu_ids'.  Better remove them now than have somebody introduce use
of them later.

Of course, on x86-64 with MAXSMP there is no sane small compile-time
constant for the cpumask sizes, and we end up using the actual CPU bits,
and will generate the above kind of horrors regardless.  Please don't
use MAXSMP unless you really expect to have machines with thousands of
cores.

<title>Remove Intel compiler support</title>

include/linux/compiler-intel.h had no update in the past 3 years.

We often forget about the third C compiler to build the kernel.

For example, commit a0a12c3ed057 ("asm goto: eradicate CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO")
only mentioned GCC and Clang.

init/Kconfig defines CC_IS_GCC and CC_IS_CLANG but not CC_IS_ICC,
and nobody has reported any issue.

I guess the Intel Compiler support is broken, and nobody is caring
about it.

Harald Arnesen pointed out ICC (classic Intel C/C++ compiler) is
deprecated:

    $ icc -v
    icc: remark #10441: The Intel(R) C++ Compiler Classic (ICC) is
    deprecated and will be removed from product release in the second half
    of 2023. The Intel(R) oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler (ICX) is the recommended
    compiler moving forward. Please transition to use this compiler. Use
    '-diag-disable=10441' to disable this message.
    icc version 2021.7.0 (gcc version 12.1.0 compatibility)

<title>genirq/msi, platform-msi: Ensure that MSI descriptors are unreferenced</title>

Miquel reported a warning in the MSI core which is triggered when
interrupts are freed via platform_msi_device_domain_free().

This code got reworked to use core functions for freeing the MSI
descriptors, but nothing took care to clear the msi_desc-&gt;irq entry, which
then triggers the warning in msi_free_msi_desc() which uses desc-&gt;irq to
validate that the descriptor has been torn down. The same issue exists in
msi_domain_populate_irqs().

Up to the point that msi_free_msi_descs() grew a warning for this case,
this went un-noticed.

Provide the counterpart of msi_domain_populate_irqs() and invoke it in
platform_msi_device_domain_free() before freeing the interrupts and MSI
descriptors and also in the error path of msi_domain_populate_irqs().

<title>capability: just use a 'u64' instead of a 'u32[2]' array</title>

<id>f122a08b197d076ccf136c73fae0146875812a88</id>
<content type='text'>
Back in 2008 we extended the capability bits from 32 to 64, and we did
it by extending the single 32-bit capability word from one word to an
array of two words.  It was then obfuscated by hiding the "2" behind two
macro expansions, with the reasoning being that maybe it gets extended
further some day.

That reasoning may have been valid at the time, but the last thing we
want to do is to extend the capability set any more.  And the array of
values not only causes source code oddities (with loops to deal with
it), but also results in worse code generation.  It's a lose-lose
situation.

So just change the 'u32[2]' into a 'u64' and be done with it.

We still have to deal with the fact that the user space interface is
designed around an array of these 32-bit values, but that was the case
before too, since the array layouts were different (ie user space
doesn't use an array of 32-bit values for individual capability masks,
but an array of 32-bit slices of multiple masks).

So that marshalling of data is actually simplified too, even if it does
remain somewhat obscure and odd.

This was all triggered by my reaction to the new "cap_isidentical()"
introduced recently.  By just using a saner data structure, it went from

	unsigned __capi;
	CAP_FOR_EACH_U32(__capi) {
		if (a.cap[__capi] != b.cap[__capi])
			return false;
	}
	return true;

to just being

	return a.val == b.val;

instead.  Which is rather more obvious both to humans and to compilers.
