Pull syscall-get-arguments cleanup and fixes from Steven Rostedt:
 "Andy Lutomirski approached me to tell me that the
  syscall_get_arguments() implementation in x86 was horrible and gcc
  certainly gets it wrong.

  He said that since the tracepoints only pass in 0 and 6 for i and n
  repectively, it should be optimized for that case. Inspecting the
  kernel, I discovered that all users pass in 0 for i and only one file
  passing in something other than 6 for the number of arguments. That
  code happens to be my own code used for the special syscall tracing.

  That can easily be converted to just using 0 and 6 as well, and only
  copying what is needed. Which is probably the faster path anyway for
  that case.

  Along the way, a couple of real fixes came from this as the
  syscall_get_arguments() function was incorrect for csky and riscv.

  x86 has been optimized to for the new interface that removes the
  variable number of arguments, but the other architectures could still
  use some loving and take more advantage of the simpler interface"

After removing the start and count arguments of syscall_get_arguments() it
seems reasonable to remove them from syscall_set_arguments(). Note, as of
today, there are no users of syscall_set_arguments(). But we are told that
there will be soon. But for now, at least make it consistent with
syscall_get_arguments().

At Linux Plumbers, Andy Lutomirski approached me and pointed out that the
function call syscall_get_arguments() implemented in x86 was horribly
written and not optimized for the standard case of passing in 0 and 6 for
the starting index and the number of system calls to get. When looking at
all the users of this function, I discovered that all instances pass in only
0 and 6 for these arguments. Instead of having this function handle
different cases that are never used, simply rewrite it to return the first 6
arguments of a system call.

This should help out the performance of tracing system calls by ptrace,
ftrace and perf.

RISC-V syscall arguments are located in orig_a0,a1..a5 fields
of struct pt_regs.

Due to an off-by-one bug and a bug in pointer arithmetic
syscall_get_arguments() was reading s3..s7 fields instead of a1..a5.
Likewise, syscall_set_arguments() was writing s3..s7 fields
instead of a1..a5.

The FIXMAP area overlaps with VMALLOC area in Linux-5.1-rc1 hence we get
below warning in Linux RISC-V 32bit kernel. This warning does not show-up
in Linux RISC-V 64bit kernel due to large VMALLOC area.

<content type='text'>
A memory save operation to 8-byte variable in RV32 is divided into
two sw instructions in the put_user macro.  The current fixup returns
execution flow to the second sw instead of the one after it.

This patch fixes this fixup code according to the load access part.

Pull RISC-V updates from Palmer Dabbelt:
 "This contains the vast majority of the RISC-V patches for this merge
  window. It includes:

   - A handful of cleanups to our kernel prints, most of which are
     things I should have caught the first time.

   - We now provide an HWCAP that contains the ISA extensions that all
     enabled processors support, as supposed to just looking at the
     first enabled processor.

   - We no longer spin forever waiting for all harts to boot.

   - A fixmap implementation, which is coupled to some cleanups in our
     MM code.

  The only outstanding patches I know of right now are Vincent Chen's
  patches to fix c.ebreak handling in the kernel, the v2 of which was
  posted this morning. I'd like those in the MW, but I didn't want to
  hold up everything else. The patch set is based on top of my last
  fixes submission, but I've tested it with a conflict-free merge from
  v5.0. I'm doing this rather than my "just go rebase everything" flow
  due to a discussion with Linus, but if I misunderstood then just let
  me know and I'll do something else. It's also the first time I've
  taken a PR into my own tree, so let me know if I screwed that one up.

  I've used my standard testing flow (QEMU in Fedora), but now that
  we're starting to get the kernel in better shape I think it's time to
  impose some more testing here -- specifically I'm going to require
  that patches boot on the HiFive Unleashed because we're getting to the
  point where we can actually expect that to work. I haven't done that
  for this tag, but I'm going to do it for future ones.

  I know the board is a bit expensive and not everyone has one, but if
  I've sent you a free one and your patches break the boot then I'm
  going to yell at you :). If you don't have one then please indicate
  how you tested in your cover letter, and if you have a board then
  please add your Tested-by to patches if they work for your testing
  flow"

<content type='text'>
This patchset does:
1. Moves MM related code from kernel/setup.c to mm/init.c
2. Implements compile-time fixed mappings

Using fixed mappings, we get earlyprints even without SBI calls.

For example, we can now use kernel parameter
"earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0x10000000"
to get early prints on QEMU virt machine without using SBI calls.

The patchset is tested on QEMU virt machine.

Palmer: It looks like some of the code movement here conflicted with the
patches to move hartid handling around.  As far as I can tell the only
changed code was in smp_setup_processor_id(), and I've kept the one in
smp.c.

Every in-kernel use of this function defined it to KERNEL_DS (either as
an actual define, or as an inline function).  It's an entirely
historical artifact, and long long long ago used to actually read the
segment selector valueof '%ds' on x86.

Which in the kernel is always KERNEL_DS.

Inspired by a patch from Jann Horn that just did this for a very small
subset of users (the ones in fs/), along with Al who suggested a script.
I then just took it to the logical extreme and removed all the remaining
gunk.

Roughly scripted with

   git grep -l '(get_ds())' -- :^tools/ | xargs sed -i 's/(get_ds())/(KERNEL_DS)/'
   git grep -lw 'get_ds' -- :^tools/ | xargs sed -i '/^#define get_ds()/d'

plus manual fixups to remove a few unusual usage patterns, the couple of
inline function cases and to fix up a comment that had become stale.

The 'get_ds()' function remains in an x86 kvm selftest, since in user
space it actually does something relevant.
