arm64: Split kpti_install_ng_mappings()

Browse source

The arm64_cpu_capabilities::cpu_enable callbacks are intended for
cpu-local feature enablement (e.g. poking system registers). These get
called for each online CPU when boot/system cpucaps get finalized and
enabled, and get called whenever a CPU is subsequently onlined.

For KPTI with the ARM64_UNMAP_KERNEL_AT_EL0 cpucap, we use the
kpti_install_ng_mappings() function as the cpu_enable callback. This
does a mixture of cpu-local configuration (setting VBAR_EL1 to the
appropriate trampoline vectors) and some global configuration (rewriting
the swapper page tables to sue non-glboal mappings) that must happen at
most once.

This patch splits kpti_install_ng_mappings() into a cpu-local
cpu_enable_kpti() initialization function and a system-wide
kpti_install_ng_mappings() function. The cpu_enable_kpti() function is
responsible for selecting the necessary cpu-local vectors each time a
CPU is onlined, and the kpti_install_ng_mappings() function performs the
one-time rewrite of the translation tables too use non-global mappings.
Splitting the two makes the code a bit easier to follow and also allows
the page table rewriting code to be marked as __init such that it can be
freed after use.
