Levin, Alexander (Sasha Levin)
4950276672 kmemcheck: remove annotations
Patch series "kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck", v2.

As discussed at LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck.

KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of
kmemcheck (single CPU, slow).  KASan is already upstream.

We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't
consider KASan as a suitable replacement).

The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC
versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2
years, and try again.

Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports
KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons.

This patch (of 4):

Remove kmemcheck annotations, and calls to kmemcheck from the kernel.

[alexander.levin@verizon.com: correctly remove kmemcheck call from dma_map_sg_attrs]

df6b35f409 x86/fpu: Rename i387.h to fpu/api.h
We already have fpu/types.h, move i387.h to fpu/api.h.

The file name has become a misnomer anyway: it offers generic FPU APIs,
but is not limited to i387 functionality.

f317820cb6 x86/xor: Add alternative SSE implementation only prefetching once per 64-byte line
On CPUs with 64-byte last level cache lines, this yields roughly
10% better performance, independent of CPU vendor or specific
model (as far as I was able to test).

e8f6e3f8a1 x86/xor: Unify SSE-base xor-block routines
Besides folding duplicate code, this has the advantage of fixing
x86-64's failure to use proper (para-virtualizable) accessors
for dealing with CR0.TS.

f85612967c x86: add hooks for kmemcheck
The hooks that we modify are:
- Page fault handler (to handle kmemcheck faults)
- Debug exception handler (to hide pages after single-stepping
  the instruction that caused the page fault)

Also redefine memset() to use the optimized version if kmemcheck is
enabled.

(Thanks to Pekka Enberg for minimizing the impact on the page fault
handler.)

As kmemcheck doesn't handle MMX/SSE instructions (yet), we also disable
the optimized xor code, and rely instead on the generic C implementation
in order to avoid false-positive warnings.
