ptrace/x86: Partly fix set_task_blockstep()->update_debugctlmsr() logic

commit 95cf00fa5d5e2a200a2c044c84bde8389a237e02 upstream.

Afaics the usage of update_debugctlmsr() and TIF_BLOCKSTEP in
step.c was always very wrong.

1. update_debugctlmsr() was simply unneeded. The child sleeps
   TASK_TRACED, __switch_to_xtra(next_p => child) should notice
   TIF_BLOCKSTEP and set/clear DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF after resume if
   needed.

2. It is wrong. The state of DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF bit in CPU register
   should always match the state of current's TIF_BLOCKSTEP bit.

3. Even get_debugctlmsr() + update_debugctlmsr() itself does not
   look right. Irq can change other bits in MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR
   register or the caller can be preempted in between.

4. It is not safe to play with TIF_BLOCKSTEP if task != current.
   DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF and TIF_BLOCKSTEP should always match each
   other if the task is running. The tracee is stopped but it
   can be SIGKILL'ed right before set/clear_tsk_thread_flag().

However, now that uprobes uses user_enable_single_step(current)
we can't simply remove update_debugctlmsr(). So this patch adds
the additional "task == current" check and disables irqs to avoid
the race with interrupts/preemption.

Unfortunately this patch doesn't solve the last problem, we need
another fix. Probably we should teach ptrace_stop() to set/clear
single/block stepping after resume.

And afaics there is yet another problem: perf can play with
MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR from nmi, this obviously means that even
__switch_to_xtra() has problems.

x86/Sandy Bridge: mark arrays in __init functions as __initconst

commit 91c90db1aa92a50fa1d7f289502b49ddb46a90d3 upstream.

commit ab3cd8670e0b3fcde7f029e1503ed3c5138e9571 upstream.

Mark static arrays as __initconst so they get removed when the init
sections are flushed.

efi_pstore: Check remaining space with QueryVariableInfo() before writing data

commit d80a361d779a9f19498943d1ca84243209cd5647 upstream.

[Issue]

As discussed in a thread below, Running out of space in EFI isn't a well-tested scenario.
And we wouldn't expect all firmware to handle it gracefully.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=134305325801789&w=2

On the other hand, current efi_pstore doesn't check a remaining space of storage at writing time.
Therefore, efi_pstore may not work if it tries to write a large amount of data.

[Patch Description]

To avoid handling the situation above, this patch checks if there is a space enough to log with
QueryVariableInfo() before writing data.

efivars: Disable external interrupt while holding efivars->lock

commit 81fa4e581d9283f7992a0d8c534bb141eb840a14 upstream.

[Problem]
There is a scenario which efi_pstore fails to log messages in a panic case.

 - CPUA holds an efi_var->lock in either efivarfs parts
   or efi_pstore with interrupt enabled.
 - CPUB panics and sends IPI to CPUA in smp_send_stop().
 - CPUA stops with holding the lock.
 - CPUB kicks efi_pstore_write() via kmsg_dump(KSMG_DUMP_PANIC)
   but it returns without logging messages.

[Patch Description]
This patch disables an external interruption while holding efivars->lock
as follows.

In efi_pstore_write() and get_var_data(), spin_lock/spin_unlock is
replaced by spin_lock_irqsave/spin_unlock_irqrestore because they may
be called in an interrupt context.

In other functions, they are replaced by spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq.
because they are all called from a process context.

By applying this patch, we can avoid the problem above with
a following senario.

 - CPUA holds an efi_var->lock with interrupt disabled.
 - CPUB panics and sends IPI to CPUA in smp_send_stop().
 - CPUA receives the IPI after releasing the lock because it is
   disabling interrupt while holding the lock.
 - CPUB waits for one sec until CPUA releases the lock.
 - CPUB kicks efi_pstore_write() via kmsg_dump(KSMG_DUMP_PANIC)
   And it can hold the lock successfully.

[bwh: Backported to 3.2:
 - Drop efivarfs changes
 - Adjust context
 - Drop change to efi_pstore_erase(), which is implemented using
   efi_pstore_write() here]
