[PATCH v3 5/5] arm64: irqflags: use alternative branches for pseudo-NMI logic

Due to the way we use alternatives in the irqflags code, even when
CONFIG_ARM64_PSEUDO_NMI=n, we generate unused alternative code for
pseudo-NMI management. This patch reworks the irqflags code to remove
the redundant code when CONFIG_ARM64_PSEUDO_NMI=n, which benefits the
more common case, and will permit further rework of our DAIF management
(e.g. in preparation for ARMv8.8-A's NMI feature).
Prior to this patch a defconfig kernel has hundreds of redundant
instructions to access ICC_PMR_EL1 (which should only need to be
manipulated in setup code), which this patch removes:
| [mark at lakrids:~/src/linux]% usekorg 12.1.0 aarch64-linux-objdump -d vmlinux-before-defconfig | grep icc_pmr_el1 | wc -l
| 885
| [mark at lakrids:~/src/linux]% usekorg 12.1.0 aarch64-linux-objdump -d vmlinux-after-defconfig | grep icc_pmr_el1 | wc -l
| 5
Those instructions alone account for more than 3KiB of kernel text, and
will be associated with additional alt_instr entries, padding and
branches, etc.
These redundant instructions exist because we use alternative sequences
for to choose between DAIF / PMR management in irqflags.h, and even when
CONFIG_ARM64_PSEUDO_NMI=n, those alternative sequences will generate the
code for PMR management, along with alt_instr entries. We use
alternatives here as this was necessary to ensure that we never
encounter a mismatched local_irq_save() ... local_irq_restore() sequence
in the middle of patching, which was possible to see if we used static
keys to choose between DAIF and PMR management.
Since commit:
21fb26bfb01ffe0d ("arm64: alternatives: add alternative_has_feature_*()")
... we have a mechanism to use alternatives similarly to static keys,
allowing us to write the bulk of the logic in C code while also being
able to rely on all sites being patched in one go, and avoiding a
mismatched mismatched local_irq_save() ... local_irq_restore() sequence
during patching.
This patch rewrites arm64's local_irq_*() functions to use alternative
branches. This allows for the pseudo-NMI code to be entirely elided when
CONFIG_ARM64_PSEUDO_NMI=n, making a defconfig Image 64KiB smaller, and
not affectint the size of an Image with CONFIG_ARM64_PSEUDO_NMI=y:

Some sensitive code depends on being run with interrupts enabled or with
interrupts disabled, and so when enabling or disabling interrupts we
must ensure that the compiler does not move such code around the actual
enable/disable. Before this patch, that was ensured by the combined asm
volatile blocks having memory clobbers (and any sensitive code either
being asm volatile, or touching memory). This patch consistently uses
explicit barrier() operations before and after the enable/disable, which
allows us to use the usual sysreg accessors (which are asm volatile) to
manipulate the interrupt masks. The use of pmr_sync() is pulled within
this critical section for consistency.
