Add helpers that can be used to modify supervisor xstate safely for the
current task.

State for supervisors xstate based features can be live and
accesses via MSR's, or saved in memory in an xsave buffer. When the
kernel needs to modify this state it needs to be sure to operate on it
in the right place, so the modifications don't get clobbered.

In the past supervisor xstate features have used get_xsave_addr()
directly, and performed open coded logic handle operating on the saved
state correctly. This has posed two problems:
 1. It has logic that has been gotten wrong more than once.
 2. To reduce code, less common path's are not optimized. Determination
    of which path's are less common is based on assumptions about far away
    code that could change.

In addition, now that get_xsave_addr() is not available outside of the
core fpu code, there isn't even a way for these supervisor features to
modify the in memory state.

To resolve these problems, add some helpers that encapsulate the correct
logic to operate on the correct copy of the state. Map the MSR's to the
struct field location in a case statements in __get_xsave_member().

Use the helpers like this, to write to either the MSR or saved state:
void *xstate;

xstate = start_update_xsave_msrs(XFEATURE_FOO);
r = xsave_rdmsrl(state, MSR_IA32_FOO_1, &val)
if (r)
	xsave_wrmsrl(state, MSR_IA32_FOO_2, FOO_ENABLE);
end_update_xsave_msrs();

I like the approach in principle, but you still expose the xstate
internals via the void pointer. It's just a question of time that this
is type casted and abused in interesting ways.

Something like the below untested (on top of the whole series) preserves
the encapsulation and reduces the code at the call sites.

Thanks for taking a look. I have to say though, these changes are
making me scratch my head a bit. Should we really design around callers
digging into mysterious pointers with magic offsets instead of using
easy helpers full of warnings about pitfalls? It should look odd in a
code review too I would think.

It loses the ability to know which MSR write actually failed. It also
loses the ability to perform read/write logic under a single
transaction. The latter is not needed for this series, but this snippet
from the IBT series does it:

int ibt_get_clear_wait_endbr(void)
{
	void *xstate;
	u64 msr_val = 0;

	if (!current->thread.shstk.ibt)
		return 0;

	xstate = start_update_xsave_msrs(XFEATURE_CET_USER);
	if (!xsave_rdmsrl(xstate, MSR_IA32_U_CET, &msr_val))
		xsave_wrmsrl(xstate, MSR_IA32_U_CET, msr_val &
~CET_WAIT_ENDBR);
	end_update_xsave_msrs();

	return msr_val & CET_WAIT_ENDBR;
}

I suppose we could just add a new function to do that logic in a single
transaction when the time comes. But inventing data structures to
describe work to be passed off to some executor always seems to break
at the first new requirement. What I usually wanted was a programming
language, and I already had it.

Not to bikeshed though, it will still get the job done.

We tend to call these "supervisor xfeatures".  The "state is in the
registers" we call "active".  Maybe:

	Just like user xfeatures, supervisor xfeatures can be either
	active in the registers or inactive and present in the task FPU
	buffer.  If the registers are active, the registers can be
	modified directly.  If the registers are not active, the
	modification must be performed on the task FPU buffer.

This looks OK.  I'm not thrilled about it.  The
start_update_xsave_msrs() can probably drop the "_msrs".  Maybe:

	start_xfeature_update(...);

Also, if you have to do the address lookup in xsave_rdmsrl() anyway, I
wonder if the 'xstate' should just be a full fledged 'struct xregs_state'.

The other option would be to make a little on-stack structure like:

	struct xsave_update {
		int feature;
		struct xregs_state *xregs;
	};

Then you do:

	struct xsave_update xsu;
	...
	start_update_xsave_msrs(&xsu, XFEATURE_FOO);

and then pass it along to each of the other operations:

	r = xsave_rdmsrl(xsu, MSR_IA32_FOO_1, &val)

It's slightly less likely to get type confused as a 'void *';

Just to get an idea what this is doing, it's OK to include the shadow
stack MSRs in here.

Are you sure this should return a u64*?  We have lots of <=64-bit XSAVE
fields.

This might also be a good spot to check that xfeature_nr is in
fpstate.xfeatures.

Won't fpregs_restore_userregs() end up setting TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD=0?
Isn't that a case where a "return NULL" is needed?

In any case, this makes me think this code should start out stupid and
slow.  Keep the API as-is, but make the first patch unconditionally do
the WRMSR.  Leave the "fast" buffer modifications for a follow-on patch.

Hmm, this whole thing pretends to be updating MSRs, which is often not
true. Maybe the xsave_rdmsrl/xsave_wrmsrl should be renamed too.
xsave_readl()/xsave_writel() or something.

The 'void *' is actually a pointer to the specific xfeature in the
buffer. So the read/writes don't have to re-compute the offset every
time. It's not too much work though. I'm really surprised by the desire
to obfuscate the pointer, but I guess if we really want to, I'd rather
do that and keep the regular read/write operations.

If we don't care about the extra lookups this can totally drop the
caller side state. The feature nr can be looked up from the MSR along
with the struct offset. Then it doesn't expose the pointer to the
buffer, since it's all recomputed every operation.

So like:
start_xfeature_update();
r = xsave_readl(MSR_IA32_FOO_1, &val)
if (r)
        xsave_writel(MSR_IA32_FOO_2, FOO_ENABLE);
end_xfeature_update();

The WARNs then happen in the read/writes. An early iteration looked
like that. I liked this version with caller side state, but thought it
might be worth revisiting if there really is a strong desire to hide
the pointer.

Ok.

I thought it should only be used with 64 bit msrs. Maybe it needs a
better name?

This is for the case when the feature is in the init state. For CET's 
case this could just zero the buffer and return the pointer to it, but
for other features the init state wasn't always zero. So this just
makes all the features "active" and TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD is cleared. It
then returns NULL and the read/writes go to the MSRs. It still looks
correct to me, am I missing something?

Ok. Should I drop the optimized versions from the series or just split
them out? The optimizations were trying to address Boris' comments:
