Ard Biesheuvel ccf54058f5 arm64/scs: Fix handling of DWARF augmentation data in CIE/FDE frames
The dynamic SCS patching code pretends to parse the DWARF augmentation
data in the CIE (header) frame, and handle accordingly when processing
the individual FDE frames based on this CIE frame. However, the boolean
variable is defined inside the loop, and so the parsed value is ignored.

The same applies to the code alignment field, which is also read from
the header but then discarded.

This was never spotted before because Clang is the only compiler that
supports dynamic SCS patching (which is essentially an Android feature),
and the unwind tables it produces are highly uniform, and match the
de facto defaults.

So instead of testing for the 'z' flag in the augmentation data field,
require a fixed augmentation data string of 'zR', and simplify the rest
of the code accordingly.

Also introduce some error codes to specify why the patching failed, and
log it to the kernel console on failure when this happens when loading a
module. (Doing so for vmlinux is infeasible, as the patching is done
extremely early in the boot.)

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
