Re: [PATCH v4 19/20] powerpc/64s: Clear gprs on interrupt routine entry in Book3S

Zero GPRS r0, r2-r11, r14-r31, on entry into the kernel for all
other interrupt sources to limit influence of user-space values
in potential speculation gadgets. The remaining gprs are overwritten by
entry macros to interrupt handlers, irrespective of whether or not a
given handler consumes these register values.

Prior to this commit, r14-r31 are restored on a per-interrupt basis at
exit, but now they are always restored. Remove explicit REST_NVGPRS
invocations as non-volatiles must now always be restored. 32-bit systems
do not clear user registers on interrupt, and continue to depend on the
return value of interrupt_exit_user_prepare to determine whether or not
to restore non-volatiles.

The mmap_bench benchmark in selftests should rapidly invoke pagefaults.
See ~0.8% performance regression with this mitigation, but this
indicates the worst-case performance due to heavier-weight interrupt
handlers.
Ow, my heart :(

Are we not keeping a CONFIG option to rid ourselves of this vile
performance robbing thing? Are we getting rid of the whole
_TIF_RESTOREALL thing too, or does PPC32 want to keep it?

V1 -> V2: Add benchmark data
V2 -> V3: Use ZEROIZE_GPR{,S} macro renames, clarify
interrupt_exit_user_prepare changes in summary.

You use 9/10 right afterwards, this'd have to move down to where
you zero r11 at least.

Kernel always has to keep r13 so no need to comment that. Keeping r11,
is that for those annoying fp_unavailable etc handlers?

There's probably not much a user can do with this, given they're set
from the MSR. Use can influence some bits of its MSR though. So long
as we're being paranoid, you could add an IOPTION to retain r11 only for
the handlers that need it, or have them load it from MSR and zero it
here.

Thanks,
Nick
