Adapt the rseq.c/rseq.h code to follow GNU C library changes introduced by:

glibc commit 2e456ccf0c34 ("Linux: Make __rseq_size useful for feature detection (bug 31965)")

Without this fix, rseq selftests for mm_cid fail:

./run_param_test.sh
Default parameters
Running test spinlock
Running compare-twice test spinlock
Running mm_cid test spinlock
Error: cpu id getter unavailable

<title>selftests/rseq: Do not skip !allowed_cpus for mm_cid</title>

Indexing with mm_cid is incompatible with skipping disallowed cpumask,
because concurrency IDs are based on a virtual ID allocation which is
unrelated to the physical CPU mask.

These issues can be reproduced by running the rseq selftests under a
taskset which excludes CPU 0, e.g.

  taskset -c 10-20 ./run_param_test.sh

<title>selftests/rseq: fix kselftest Clang build warnings</title>

<id>078a2ead544c56fbe6a3bed8cc90b5151a328b81</id>
<content type='text'>
When building with Clang, I am getting many warnings from the selftests/rseq tree.

Here's one such example from rseq tree:
|  param_test.c:1234:10: error: address argument to atomic operation must be a pointer to _Atomic type ('intptr_t *' (aka 'long *') invalid)
|   1234 |         while (!atomic_load(&amp;args-&gt;percpu_list_ptr)) {}
|        |                 ^           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|  /usr/local/google/home/justinstitt/repos/tc-build/build/llvm/final/lib/clang/18/include/stdatomic.h:140:29: note: expanded from macro 'atomic_load'
|    140 | #define atomic_load(object) __c11_atomic_load(object, __ATOMIC_SEQ_CST)
|        |                             ^                 ~~~~~~

Use compiler builtins `__atomic_load_n()` and `__atomic_store_n()` with
accompanying __ATOMIC_ACQUIRE and __ATOMIC_RELEASE, respectively. This
will fix the warnings because the compiler builtins do not expect their
arguments to have _Atomic type. This should also make TSAN happier.

Use rseq_unqual_scalar_typeof() rather than typeof() in macros to remove
the volatile qualifier (if there is one in the input argument), thus
generating better assembly code in those scenarios.

Also add extra brackets around the "p" parameter in RSEQ_READ_ONCE(),
RSEQ_WRITE_ONCE(), and rseq_unqual_scalar_typeof() across architectures
to preserve expectations of operator priority. Here is an example that
shows how operator priority may be an issue with missing parentheses:

    #define m(p) \
    do { \
            __typeof__(*p) v = 0; \
    } while (0)

    void fct(unsigned long long *p1)
    {
            m(p1 + 1);      /* works */
            m(1 + p1);      /* broken */
    }

Allow defining variables and perform cast with a typeof which removes
the volatile and const qualifiers.

This prevents declaring a stack variable with a volatile qualifier
within a macro, which would generate sub-optimal assembler.

This is imported from the "librseq" project.

Commit 3bcbc20942db ("selftests/rseq: Play nice with binaries statically
linked against glibc 2.35+") which is now in Linus' tree introduced uses
of __weak but did nothing to ensure that a definition is provided for it
resulting in build failures for the rseq tests:

rseq.c:41:1: error: unknown type name '__weak'
__weak ptrdiff_t __rseq_offset;
^
rseq.c:41:17: error: expected ';' after top level declarator
__weak ptrdiff_t __rseq_offset;

__weak unsigned int __rseq_size;
^
rseq.c:43:1: error: unknown type name '__weak'
__weak unsigned int __rseq_flags;

Fix this by using the definition from tools/include compiler.h.

Commit 3bcbc20942db ("selftests/rseq: Play nice with binaries statically
linked against glibc 2.35+") which is now in Linus' tree introduced uses
of __weak but did nothing to ensure that a definition is provided for it
resulting in build failures for the rseq tests:

rseq.c:41:1: error: unknown type name '__weak'
__weak ptrdiff_t __rseq_offset;
^
rseq.c:41:17: error: expected ';' after top level declarator
__weak ptrdiff_t __rseq_offset;
                ^
                ;
rseq.c:42:1: error: unknown type name '__weak'
__weak unsigned int __rseq_size;
^
rseq.c:43:1: error: unknown type name '__weak'
__weak unsigned int __rseq_flags;

Fix this by using the definition from tools/include compiler.h.

To allow running rseq and KVM's rseq selftests as statically linked
binaries, initialize the various "trampoline" pointers to point directly
at the expect glibc symbols, and skip the dlysm() lookups if the rseq
size is non-zero, i.e. the binary is statically linked *and* the libc
registered its own rseq.

Define weak versions of the symbols so as not to break linking against
libc versions that don't support rseq in any capacity.

The KVM selftests in particular are often statically linked so that they
can be run on targets with very limited runtime environments, i.e. test
machines.
