uaccess: generalize access_ok()

There are many different ways that access_ok() is defined across
architectures, but in the end, they all just compare against the
user_addr_max() value or they accept anything.

Provide one definition that works for most architectures, checking
against TASK_SIZE_MAX for user processes or skipping the check inside
of uaccess_kernel() sections.

For architectures without CONFIG_SET_FS(), this should be the fastest
check, as it comes down to a single comparison of a pointer against a
compile-time constant, while the architecture specific versions tend to
do something more complex for historic reasons or get something wrong.

Type checking for __user annotations is handled inconsistently across
architectures, but this is easily simplified as well by using an inline
function that takes a 'const void __user *' argument. A handful of
callers need an extra __user annotation for this.

Some architectures had trick to use 33-bit or 65-bit arithmetic on the
addresses to calculate the overflow, however this simpler version uses
fewer registers, which means it can produce better object code in the
end despite needing a second (statically predicted) branch.

MIPS: use simpler access_ok()

Before unifying the mips version of __access_ok() with the generic
code, this converts it to the same algorithm. This is a change in
behavior on mips64, as now address in the user segment, the lower
2^62 bytes, is taken to be valid, relying on a page fault for
addresses that are within that segment but not valid on that CPU.

The new version should be the most effecient way to do this, but
it gets rid of the special handling for size=0 that most other
architectures ignore as well.

MIPS: Fix access_ok() for the last byte of user space

The MIPS implementation of access_ok() incorrectly reports that access
to the final byte of user memory is not OK, much as the alpha & SH
versions did prior to commit 94bd8a05cd4d ("Fix 'acccess_ok()' on alpha
and SH").

For example on a MIPS64 system with __UA_LIMIT == 0xffff000000000000 we
incorrectly fail in the following cases:

access_ok(0xffffffffffff, 0x1) = 0
access_ok(0xfffffffffffe, 0x2) = 0

Fix MIPS in the same way as alpha & SH, by subtracting one from the addr
+ size condition when size is non-zero. With this the access_ok() calls
above return 1 indicating that the access may be valid.

The cost of the improved check is pretty minimal - we gain 2410 bytes,
or 0.03%, in kernel code size for a 64r6el_defconfig kernel built using
GCC 8.1.0.

get rid of legacy 'get_ds()' function

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.

Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

- csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

- the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
really used it)

- microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

for one thing, the last argument is always __access_mask and had been such

-O2 or -Os, __builtin_constant_p() propagates through static inline calls.
