In clustermd, separate write-intent-bitmaps are used for each cluster
node:
0 4k 8k 12k
-------------------------------------------------------------------
| idle | md super | bm super [0] + bits |
| bm bits[0, contd] | bm super[1] + bits | bm bits[1, contd] |
| bm super[2] + bits | bm bits [2, contd] | bm super[3] + bits |
| bm bits [3, contd] | | |
So in node 1, pg_index in __write_sb_page() could equal to
bitmap->storage.file_pages. Then bitmap_limit will be calculated to
0. md_super_write() will be called with 0 size.
That means the first 4k sb area of node 1 will never be updated
through filemap_write_page().
This bug causes hang of mdadm/clustermd_tests/01r1_Grow_resize.
Here use (pg_index % bitmap->storage.file_pages) to make calculation
of bitmap_limit correct.

If blk-wbt is enabled by default, it's found that raid write performance
is quite bad because all IO are throttled by wbt of underlying disks,
due to flag REQ_IDLE is ignored. And turns out this behaviour exist since
blk-wbt is introduced.
Other than REQ_IDLE, other flags should not be ignored as well, for
example REQ_META can be set for filesystems, clearing it can cause priority
reverse problems; And REQ_NOWAIT should not be cleared as well, because
io will wait instead of failing directly in underlying disks.
Fix those problems by keep IO flags from master bio.

While iterating all_mddevs list from md_notify_reboot() and md_exit(),
list_for_each_entry_safe is used, and this can race with deletint the
next mddev, causing UAF:
t1:
spin_lock
//list_for_each_entry_safe(mddev, n, ...)
mddev_get(mddev1)
// assume mddev2 is the next entry
spin_unlock
t2:
//remove mddev2
...
mddev_free
spin_lock
list_del
spin_unlock
kfree(mddev2)
mddev_put(mddev1)
spin_lock
//continue dereference mddev2->all_mddevs
The old helper for_each_mddev() actually grab the reference of mddev2
while holding the lock, to prevent from being freed. This problem can be
fixed the same way, however, the code will be complex.
Hence switch to use list_for_each_entry, in this case mddev_put() can free
the mddev1 and it's not safe as well. Refer to md_seq_show(), also factor
out a helper mddev_put_locked() to fix this problem.

The early boot code contains various open-coded inline assemblies with
exception handling. In order to handle possible exceptions each of them
changes the program check new psw, and restores it.
In order to simplify the various inline assemblies add simple exception
table support: the program check handler is called with a fully populated
pt_regs on the stack and may change the psw and register members. When the
program check handler returns the psw and registers from pt_regs will be
used to continue execution.
The program check handler searches the exception table for an entry which
matches the address of the program check. If such an entry is found the psw
address within pt_regs on the stack is replaced with a fixup address, and
execution continues at the new address.
If no entry is found the psw is changed to a disabled wait psw and
execution stops.
Before entering the C part of the program check handler the address of the
program check new psw is replaced to a minimalistic handler.
This is supposed to help against program check loops. If an exception
happens while in program check processing the register contents of the
original exception are restored and a disabled wait psw is loaded.

Similar to x86 and loongarch add a "debug-alternative" command line
parameter, which allows for alternative debugging. The parameter
itself comes with architecture specific semantics:
"debug-alternative"
-> print debug message for every single alternative
"debug-alternative=0;2"
-> print debug message for all alternatives with type 0 and 2
"debug-alternative=0:0-7"
-> print debug message for all alternatives with type 0 which have a
facility number within the range of 0-7
"debug-alternative=0:!8;1"
-> print debug message for all alternatives with type 0, for all
facility numbers, except facility 8, and in addition print all
alternatives with type 1
A defconfig build currently results in a kernel with more than 20.000
alternatives, where the majority is for the niai alternative (spinlocks),
and the relocated lowcore alternative. The following kernel command like
options limit alternative debug output, and enable dynamic debug messages:
debug-alternative=0:!49;1:!0
earlyprintk
bootdebug
ignore_loglevel
loglevel=8
dyndbg="file alternative.c +p"
This results in output like this:
alt: [0/ 11] 0000021b9ce8680c: c0f400000089 -> c00400000000
alt: [0/ 64] 0000021b9ce87e60: c0f400000043 -> c00400000000

Provide infrastructure which allows to generate machine_has_<feature>()

Such function usages generate a static branch depending on <feature>. The

Each <feature> correlates with a bit set in the machine_features bit
field. If the corresponding bit is set, the branch will be patched. In

set_machine_features() in the decompressor before alternatives patching of

decompressor, e.g. if common code command line parameters allow to enable
or disable certain features. In such cases test_machine_feature() instead
of machine_has_feature() must be used within the kernel. This results in a
runtime check and not a static branch.

Convert MACHINE_HAS_... to cpu_has_...() which uses test_facility() instead
of testing the machine_flags lowcore member if the feature is present.
test_facility() generates better code since it results in a static branch
without accessing memory. The branch is patched via alternatives by the
decompressor depending on the availability of the required facility.
