Stable-tree-only change.

Due to the way the GDS and SRSO patches flowed into the stable tree, it
was a 50% chance that the merge of the which value GDS and SRSO should
be.  Of course, I lost that bet, and chose the opposite of what Linus
chose in commit 64094e7e3118 ("Merge tag 'gds-for-linus-2023-08-01' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip")

Fix this up by switching the values to match what is now in Linus's tree
as that is the correct value to mirror.

commit 8415a74852d7c24795007ee9862d25feb519007c upstream.

Add support for CPUID leaf 80000021, EAX. The majority of the features will be
used in the kernel and thus a separate leaf is appropriate.

Include KVM's reverse_cpuid entry because features are used by VM guests, too.

commit fb35d30fe5b06cc24444f0405da8fbe0be5330d1 upstream.

Collect the scattered SME/SEV related feature flags into a dedicated
word.  There are now five recognized features in CPUID.0x8000001F.EAX,
with at least one more on the horizon (SEV-SNP).  Using a dedicated word
allows KVM to use its automagic CPUID adjustment logic when reporting
the set of supported features to userspace.

No functional change intended.

commit 69372cf01290b9587d2cee8fbe161d75d55c3adc upstream.

On systems that do not have hardware enforced cache coherency between
encrypted and unencrypted mappings of the same physical page, the
hypervisor can use the VM page flush MSR (0xc001011e) to flush the cache
contents of an SEV guest page. When a small number of pages are being
flushed, this can be used in place of issuing a WBINVD across all CPUs.

CPUID 0x8000001f_eax[2] is used to determine if the VM page flush MSR is
available. Add a CPUID feature to indicate it is supported and define the
MSR.

commit 3f4c8211d982099be693be9aa7d6fc4607dff290 upstream.

Instead of duplicating init_mm, allocate a fresh mm. The advantage is
that mm_alloc() has much simpler dependencies. Additionally it makes
more conceptual sense, init_mm has no (and must not have) user state
to duplicate.

commit 26ce6ec364f18d2915923bc05784084e54a5c4cc upstream.

Commit 3f4c8211d982 ("x86/mm: Use mm_alloc() in poking_init()") broke
the kernel for running as Xen PV guest.

It seems as if the new address space is never activated before being
used, resulting in Xen rejecting to accept the new CR3 value (the PGD
isn't pinned).

Fix that by adding the now missing call of paravirt_arch_dup_mmap() to
poking_init(). That call was previously done by dup_mm()-&gt;dup_mmap() and
it is a NOP for all cases but for Xen PV, where it is just doing the
pinning of the PGD.

commit 81ac7e5d741742d650b4ed6186c4826c1a0631a7 upstream

Gather Data Sampling (GDS) is a transient execution attack using
gather instructions from the AVX2 and AVX512 extensions. This attack
allows malicious code to infer data that was previously stored in
vector registers. Systems that are not vulnerable to GDS will set the
GDS_NO bit of the IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR. This is useful for VM
guests that may think they are on vulnerable systems that are, in
fact, not affected. Guests that are running on affected hosts where
the mitigation is enabled are protected as if they were running
on an unaffected system.

On all hosts that are not affected or that are mitigated, set the
GDS_NO bit.

commit 81ac7e5d741742d650b4ed6186c4826c1a0631a7 upstream

Gather Data Sampling (GDS) is a transient execution attack using
gather instructions from the AVX2 and AVX512 extensions. This attack
allows malicious code to infer data that was previously stored in
vector registers. Systems that are not vulnerable to GDS will set the
GDS_NO bit of the IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR. This is useful for VM
guests that may think they are on vulnerable systems that are, in
fact, not affected. Guests that are running on affected hosts where
the mitigation is enabled are protected as if they were running
on an unaffected system.

On all hosts that are not affected or that are mitigated, set the
GDS_NO bit.
