MIPS: sync-r4k: Rework based on x86 tsc_sync

The original sync-r4k did a good job on reducing jitter by determine
the "next time value", but it has a limitation that when synchronization
being performed too many times due to high core count or CPU hotplug,
the timewrap on CPU0 will become unaccpetable.

Rework the mechanism based on latest x86 tsc_sync. (It seems like
the original implementation is based on tsc_sync at that time,
so it's just a refresh.) To improve overall performance.

Tesed on Loongson64, Boston, QEMU.

...for each but CPU 0/boot.
Basic debug printks right before the mentioned line say:

[ 0.048170] CPU: 1, smt_mask:

So smt_mask, which is sibling mask obviously, is empty when entering
the function.
This is critical, as sched_core_cpu_starting() calculates
core-scheduling parameters only once per CPU start, and it's crucial
to have all the parameters filled in at that moment (at least it
uses cpu_smt_mask() which in fact is `&cpu_sibling_map[cpu]` on
MIPS).

A bit of debugging led me to that set_cpu_sibling_map() performing
the actual map calculation, was being invocated after
notify_cpu_start(), and exactly the latter function starts CPU HP
callback round (sched_core_cpu_starting() is basically a CPU HP
callback).
While the flow is same on ARM64 (maps after the notifier, although
before calling set_cpu_online()), x86 started calculating sibling
maps earlier than starting the CPU HP callbacks in Linux 4.14 (see
[0] for the reference). Neither me nor my brief tests couldn't find
any potential caveats in calculating the maps right after performing
delay calibration, but the WARN splat is now gone.
The very same debug prints now yield exactly what I expected from
them:

[ 0.048433] CPU: 1, smt_mask: 0-1

sched/core: Initialize the idle task with preemption disabled

As pointed out by commit

de9b8f5dcbd9 ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread")

init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle
task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by
sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary
CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them.

As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue
calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again.
In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at
bringup_cpu().

Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible*
CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing
init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations
with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always
issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0
between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by
idle_thread_get() -> idle_init().

Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never
see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its
preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove
init_idle() from idle_thread_get().

Secondary startups were patched via coccinelle:

-preempt_disable();

cpu_startup_entry(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE);

MIPS: Replace setup_irq() by request_irq()

request_irq() is preferred over setup_irq(). Invocations of setup_irq()
occur after memory allocators are ready.

Per tglx[1], setup_irq() existed in olden days when allocators were not
ready by the time early interrupts were initialized.

Hence replace setup_irq() by request_irq().

remove_irq() has been replaced by free_irq() as well.

There were build error's during previous version, couple of which was
reported by kbuild test robot <[email protected]> of which one was reported
by Thomas Bogendoerfer <[email protected]> as well. There were a
few more issues including build errors, those also have been fixed.

MIPS: MemoryMapID (MMID) Support

Introduce support for using MemoryMapIDs (MMIDs) as an alternative to
Address Space IDs (ASIDs). The major difference between the two is that
MMIDs are global - ie. an MMID uniquely identifies an address space
across all coherent CPUs. In contrast ASIDs are non-global per-CPU IDs,
wherein each address space is allocated a separate ASID for each CPU
upon which it is used. This global namespace allows a new GINVT
instruction be used to globally invalidate TLB entries associated with a
particular MMID across all coherent CPUs in the system, removing the
need for IPIs to invalidate entries with separate ASIDs on each CPU.

The allocation scheme used here is largely borrowed from arm64 (see
arch/arm64/mm/context.c). In essence we maintain a bitmap to track
available MMIDs, and MMIDs in active use at the time of a rollover to a
new MMID version are preserved in the new version. The allocation scheme
requires efficient 64 bit atomics in order to perform reasonably, so
this support depends upon CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64=n (ie. currently it
will only be included in MIPS64 kernels).

The first, and currently only, available CPU with support for MMIDs is
the MIPS I6500. This CPU supports 16 bit MMIDs, and so for now we cap
our MMIDs to 16 bits wide in order to prevent the bitmap growing to
absurd sizes if any future CPU does implement 32 bit MMIDs as the
architecture manuals suggest is recommended.

When MMIDs are in use we also make use of GINVT instruction which is
available due to the global nature of MMIDs. By executing a sequence of
GINVT & SYNC 0x14 instructions we can avoid the overhead of an IPI to
each remote CPU in many cases. One complication is that GINVT will
invalidate wired entries (in all cases apart from type 0, which targets
the entire TLB). In order to avoid GINVT invalidating any wired TLB
entries we set up, we make sure to create those entries using a reserved
MMID (0) that we never associate with any address space.

Also of note is that KVM will require further work in order to support
MMIDs & GINVT, since KVM is involved in allocating IDs for guests & in
configuring the MMU. That work is not part of this patch, so for now
when MMIDs are in use KVM is disabled.

MIPS: mm: Add set_cpu_context() for ASID assignments

When we gain MMID support we'll be storing MMIDs as atomic64_t values
and accessing them via atomic64_* functions. This necessitates that we
don't use cpu_context() as the left hand side of an assignment, ie. as a
modifiable lvalue. In preparation for this introduce a new
set_cpu_context() function & replace all assignments with cpu_context()
on their left hand side with an equivalent call to set_cpu_context().

To enforce that cpu_context() should not be used for assignments, we
rewrite it as a static inline function.

MIPS: SMP: Fix deadlock & online race

Commit 6f542ebeaee0 ("MIPS: Fix race on setting and getting
cpu_online_mask") effectively reverted commit 8f46cca1e6c06 ("MIPS: SMP:
Fix possibility of deadlock when bringing CPUs online") and thus has
reinstated the possibility of deadlock.

The commit was based on testing of kernel v4.4, where the CPU hotplug
core code issued a BUG() if the starting CPU is not marked online when
the boot CPU returns from __cpu_up. The commit fixes this race (in
v4.4), but re-introduces the deadlock situation.

As noted in the commit message, upstream differs in this area. Commit
8df3e07e7f21f ("cpu/hotplug: Let upcoming cpu bring itself fully up")
adds a completion event in the CPU hotplug core code, making this race
impossible. However, people were unhappy with relying on the core code
to do the right thing.

To address the issues both commits were trying to fix, add a second
completion event in the MIPS smp hotplug path. It removes the
possibility of a race, since the MIPS smp hotplug code now synchronises
both the boot and secondary CPUs before they return to the hotplug core
code. It also addresses the deadlock by ensuring that the secondary CPU
is not marked online before it's counters are synchronised.

This fix should also be backported to fix the race condition introduced
by the backport of commit 8f46cca1e6c06 ("MIPS: SMP: Fix possibility of
deadlock when bringing CPUs online"), through really that race only
existed before commit 8df3e07e7f21f ("cpu/hotplug: Let upcoming cpu
bring itself fully up").

MIPS: generic: Fix compilation error from include asm/mips-cpc.h

Commit e83f7e02af50c ("MIPS: CPS: Have asm/mips-cps.h include CM & CPC
headers") adds a #error to arch/mips/include/asm/mips-cpc.h if it is
included directly. While this commit replaced almost all direct includes
of mips-cm.h and mips-cpc.h, 2 remain.

With some defconfigs, mips-cps.h is indirectly included before
mips-cpc.h, but in others this results in compilation errors:

In file included from arch/mips/generic/init.c:23:0:
./arch/mips/include/asm/mips-cpc.h:12:3: error: #error Please include
asm/mips-cps.h rather than asm/mips-cpc.h

asm/mips-cps.h rather than asm/mips-cpc.h
# error Please include asm/mips-cps.h rather than asm/mips-cpc.h

In both cases, fix this by including mips-cps.h instead.

MIPS: CM: Add cluster & block args to mips_cm_lock_other()

With CM >= 3.5 we have the notion of multiple clusters & can access
their CM, CPC & GIC registers via the apporpriate redirect/other
register blocks. In order to allow for this introduce cluster & block
arguments to mips_cm_lock_other() which configures the redirect/other
region to point at the appropriate cluster, core, VP & register block.

Since we now have 4 arguments to mips_cm_lock_other() & a common use is
likely to be to target the cluster, core & VP corresponding to a
particular Linux CPU number we also add a new mips_cm_lock_other_cpu()
helper function which handles that without the caller needing to
manually pull out the cluster, core & VP numbers.

MIPS: Unify checks for sibling CPUs

Up until now we have open-coded checks for whether CPUs are siblings,
with slight variations on whether we consider the package ID or not.

This will only get more complex when we introduce cluster support, so in
preparation for that this patch introduces a cpus_are_siblings()
function which can be used to check whether or not 2 CPUs are siblings
in a consistent manner.

By checking globalnumber with the VP ID masked out this also has the
neat side effect of being ready for multi-cluster systems already.

MIPS: Abstract CPU core & VP(E) ID access through accessor functions

We currently have fields in struct cpuinfo_mips for the core & VP(E) ID
of a particular CPU, and various pieces of code directly access those
fields. This patch abstracts such access by introducing accessor
functions cpu_core(), cpu_set_core(), cpu_vpe_id() & cpu_set_vpe_id()
and having code that needs to access these values call those functions
rather than directly accessing the struct cpuinfo_mips fields. This
prepares us for changes to the way in which those values are stored in
later patches.

The cpu_vpe_id() function is introduced even though we already had a
cpu_vpe_id() macro for a couple of reasons:

1) It's more consistent with the core, and future cluster, accessors.

2) It ensures a sensible return type without explicit casts.

3) It's generally preferable to use functions rather than macros.
