set_memory_...() functions can fail, leaving the memory attributes
unchanged. Make sure all callers check the returned code.

mce: fix set_mce_nospec to always unmap the whole page

The set_memory_uc() approach doesn't work well in all cases.
As Dan pointed out when "The VMM unmapped the bad page from
guest physical space and passed the machine check to the guest."
"The guest gets virtual #MC on an access to that page. When
the guest tries to do set_memory_uc() and instructs cpa_flush()
to do clean caches that results in taking another fault / exception
perhaps because the VMM unmapped the page from the guest."

Since the driver has special knowledge to handle NP or UC,
mark the poisoned page with NP and let driver handle it when
it comes down to repair.

Please refer to discussions here for more details.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAPcyv4hrXPb1tASBZUg-GgdVs0OOFKXMXLiHmktg_kFi7YBMyQ@mail.gmail.com/

Now since poisoned page is marked as not-present, in order to
avoid writing to a not-present page and trigger kernel Oops,
also fix pmem_do_write().

set_memory: allow querying whether set_direct_map_*() is actually enabled

On arm64, set_direct_map_*() functions may return 0 without actually
changing the linear map. This behaviour can be controlled using kernel
parameters, so we need a way to determine at runtime whether calls to
set_direct_map_invalid_noflush() and set_direct_map_default_noflush() have
any effect.

Extend set_memory API with can_set_direct_map() function that allows
checking if calling set_direct_map_*() will actually change the page
table, replace several occurrences of open coded checks in arm64 with the
new function and provide a generic stub for architectures that always
modify page tables upon calls to set_direct_map APIs.

x86/{mce,mm}: Unmap the entire page if the whole page is affected and poisoned

An interesting thing happened when a guest Linux instance took a machine
check. The VMM unmapped the bad page from guest physical space and
passed the machine check to the guest.

Linux took all the normal actions to offline the page from the process
that was using it. But then guest Linux crashed because it said there
was a second machine check inside the kernel with this stack trace:

do_memory_failure
set_mce_nospec
set_memory_uc
_set_memory_uc
change_page_attr_set_clr
cpa_flush
clflush_cache_range_opt

This was odd, because a CLFLUSH instruction shouldn't raise a machine
check (it isn't consuming the data). Further investigation showed that
the VMM had passed in another machine check because is appeared that the
guest was accessing the bad page.

Fix is to check the scope of the poison by checking the MCi_MISC register.
If the entire page is affected, then unmap the page. If only part of the
page is affected, then mark the page as uncacheable.

This assumes that VMMs will do the logical thing and pass in the "whole
page scope" via the MCi_MISC register (since they unmapped the entire
page).

x86/mm/cpa: Add set_direct_map_*() functions

Add two new functions set_direct_map_default_noflush() and
set_direct_map_invalid_noflush() for setting the direct map alias for the
page to its default valid permissions and to an invalid state that cannot
be cached in a TLB, respectively. These functions do not flush the TLB.

Note, __kernel_map_pages() does something similar but flushes the TLB and
doesn't reset the permission bits to default on all architectures.

Also add an ARCH config ARCH_HAS_SET_DIRECT_MAP for specifying whether
these have an actual implementation or a default empty one.

x86/memory_failure: Introduce {set, clear}_mce_nospec()

Currently memory_failure() returns zero if the error was handled. On
that result mce_unmap_kpfn() is called to zap the page out of the kernel
linear mapping to prevent speculative fetches of potentially poisoned
memory. However, in the case of dax mapped devmap pages the page may be
in active permanent use by the device driver, so it cannot be unmapped
from the kernel.

Instead of marking the page not present, marking the page UC should
be sufficient for preventing poison from being pre-fetched into the
cache. Convert mce_unmap_pfn() to set_mce_nospec() remapping the page as
UC, to hide it from speculative accesses.

Given that that persistent memory errors can be cleared by the driver,
include a facility to restore the page to cacheable operation,
clear_mce_nospec().

provide linux/set_memory.h

Currently code that wants to use set_memory_ro() etc, needs to include
asm/set_memory.h, which doesn't exist on all arches. Some code knows it
only builds on arches which have the header, other code guards the
inclusion with an #ifdef, neither is ideal.

So create linux/set_memory.h. This always exists, so users don't need
an #ifdef just to include the header.

When CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY=y it includes asm/set_memory.h,
otherwise it provides empty non-failing implementations.
