The CAS instructions implicitly access only the relevant bits of the "old"
argument, so there is no need for explicit masking via type-casting as
there is in the LL/SC implementation.
Move the casting into the LL/SC code and remove it altogether for the LSE
implementation.

Our atomic instructions (either LSE atomics of LDXR/STXR sequences)
natively support byte, half-word, word and double-word memory accesses
so there is no need to mask the data register prior to being stored.

For LSE atomics that read and write a register operand, we need to
ensure that these operands are annotated as "early clobber" if the
register is written before all of the input operands have been consumed.
Failure to do so can result in the compiler allocating the same register
to both operands, leading to splats such as:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 11111122222221
[...]
x1 : 1111111122222222 x0 : 1111111122222221
Process swapper/0 (pid: 1, stack limit = 0x000000008209f908)
Call trace:
test_atomic64+0x1360/0x155c
where x0 has been allocated as both the value to be stored and also the
atomic_t pointer.
This patch adds the missing clobbers.

The lse implementation of atomic64_dec_if_positive uses the '+&' constraint,
but the '&' is redundant and confusing in this case, since early clobber
on a read/write operand is a strange concept.
Replace the constraint with '+'.

The LSE atomic code uses asm register variables to ensure that
parameters are allocated in specific registers. In the majority of cases
we specifically ask for an x register when using 64-bit values, but in a
couple of cases we use a w regsiter for a 64-bit value.
For asm register variables, the compiler only cares about the register
index, with wN and xN having the same meaning. The compiler determines
the register size to use based on the type of the variable. Thus, this
inconsistency is merely confusing, and not harmful to code generation.
For consistency, this patch updates those cases to use the x register
alias. There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

The LSE atomics are implemented using alternative code sequences of
different lengths, and explicit NOP padding is used to ensure the
patching works correctly.
This patch converts the bulk of the LSE code over to using the __nops
macro, which makes it slightly clearer as to what is going on and also
consolidates all of the padding at the end of the various sequences.

Implement FETCH-OP atomic primitives, these are very similar to the
existing OP-RETURN primitives we already have, except they return the
value of the atomic variable _before_ modification.
This is especially useful for irreversible operations -- such as
bitops (because it becomes impossible to reconstruct the state prior
to modification).
This patch implements the LSE variants.

The LSE atomics implementation uses runtime patching to patch in calls
to out of line non-LSE atomics implementations on cores that lack hardware
support for LSE. To avoid paying the overhead cost of a function call even
if no call ends up being made, the bl instruction is kept invisible to the
compiler, and the out of line implementations preserve all registers, not
just the ones that they are required to preserve as per the AAPCS64.
However, commit fd045f6cd9 ("arm64: add support for module PLTs") added
support for routing branch instructions via veneers if the branch target
offset exceeds the range of the ordinary relative branch instructions.
Since this deals with jump and call instructions that are exposed to ELF
relocations, the PLT code uses x16 to hold the address of the branch target
when it performs an indirect branch-to-register, something which is
explicitly allowed by the AAPCS64 (and ordinary compiler generated code
does not expect register x16 or x17 to retain their values across a bl
instruction).
Since the lse runtime patched bl instructions don't adhere to the AAPCS64,
they don't deal with this clobbering of registers x16 and x17. So add them
to the clobber list of the asm() statements that perform the call
instructions, and drop x16 and x17 from the list of registers that are
callee saved in the out of line non-LSE implementations.
In addition, since we have given these functions two scratch registers,
they no longer need to stack/unstack temp registers.

The current arm64 __cmpxchg_double{_mb} implementations carry out the
compare exchange by first comparing the old values passed in to the
values read from the pointer provided and by stashing the cumulative
bitwise difference in a 64-bit register.
By comparing the register content against 0, it is possible to detect if
the values read differ from the old values passed in, so that the compare
exchange detects whether it has to bail out or carry on completing the
operation with the exchange.
Given the current implementation, to detect the cmpxchg operation
status, the __cmpxchg_double{_mb} functions should return the 64-bit
stashed bitwise difference so that the caller can detect cmpxchg failure
by comparing the return value content against 0. The current implementation
declares the return value as an int, which means that the 64-bit
value stashing the bitwise difference is truncated before being
returned to the __cmpxchg_double{_mb} callers, which means that
any bitwise difference present in the top 32 bits goes undetected,
triggering false positives and subsequent kernel failures.
This patch fixes the issue by declaring the arm64 __cmpxchg_double{_mb}
return values as a long, so that the bitwise difference is
properly propagated on failure, restoring the expected behaviour.

This patch hooks up the API to our relaxed atomic instructions, rather
than have them all expand to the full-barrier variants as they do

out-of-line functions are compiled with specific compiler flags to
force out-of-line save/restore of any registers that are usually
caller-saved.
