mips, bpf: Add eBPF JIT for 32-bit MIPS

This is an implementation of an eBPF JIT for 32-bit MIPS I-V and MIPS32.
The implementation supports all 32-bit and 64-bit ALU and JMP operations,
including the recently-added atomics. 64-bit div/mod and 64-bit atomics
are implemented using function calls to math64 and atomic64 functions,
respectively. All 32-bit operations are implemented natively by the JIT,
except if the CPU lacks ll/sc instructions.

Register mapping
================
All 64-bit eBPF registers are mapped to native 32-bit MIPS register pairs,
and does not use any stack scratch space for register swapping. This means
that all eBPF register data is kept in CPU registers all the time, and
this simplifies the register management a lot. It also reduces the JIT's
pressure on temporary registers since we do not have to move data around.

Native register pairs are ordered according to CPU endiannes, following
the O32 calling convention for passing 64-bit arguments and return values.
The eBPF return value, arguments and callee-saved registers are mapped to
their native MIPS equivalents.

Since the 32 highest bits in the eBPF FP (frame pointer) register are
always zero, only one general-purpose register is actually needed for the
mapping. The MIPS fp register is used for this purpose. The high bits are
mapped to MIPS register r0. This saves us one CPU register, which is much
needed for temporaries, while still allowing us to treat the R10 (FP)
register just like any other eBPF register in the JIT.

The MIPS gp (global pointer) and at (assembler temporary) registers are
used as internal temporary registers for constant blinding. CPU registers
t6-t9 are used internally by the JIT when constructing more complex 64-bit
operations. This is precisely what is needed - two registers to store an
operand value, and two more as scratch registers when performing the
operation.

The register mapping is shown below.

R0 - $v1, $v0 return value
R1 - $a1, $a0 argument 1, passed in registers
R2 - $a3, $a2 argument 2, passed in registers
R3 - $t1, $t0 argument 3, passed on stack
R4 - $t3, $t2 argument 4, passed on stack
R5 - $t4, $t3 argument 5, passed on stack
R6 - $s1, $s0 callee-saved
R7 - $s3, $s2 callee-saved
R8 - $s5, $s4 callee-saved
R9 - $s7, $s6 callee-saved
FP - $r0, $fp 32-bit frame pointer
AX - $gp, $at constant-blinding
$t6 - $t9 unallocated, JIT temporaries

Jump offsets
============
The JIT tries to map all conditional JMP operations to MIPS conditional
PC-relative branches. The MIPS branch offset field is 18 bits, in bytes,
which is equivalent to the eBPF 16-bit instruction offset. However, since
the JIT may emit more than one CPU instruction per eBPF instruction, the
field width may overflow. If that happens, the JIT converts the long
conditional jump to a short PC-relative branch with the condition
inverted, jumping over a long unconditional absolute jmp (j).

This conversion will change the instruction offset mapping used for jumps,
and may in turn result in more branch offset overflows. The JIT therefore
dry-runs the translation until no more branches are converted and the
offsets do not change anymore. There is an upper bound on this of course,
and if the JIT hits that limit, the last two iterations are run with all
branches being converted.

Tail call count
===============
The current tail call count is stored in the 16-byte area of the caller's
stack frame that is reserved for the callee in the o32 ABI. The value is
initialized in the prologue, and propagated to the tail-callee by skipping
the initialization instructions when emitting the tail call.

MIPS: BPF: Restore MIPS32 cBPF JIT

Commit 716850ab104d ("MIPS: eBPF: Initial eBPF support for MIPS32
architecture.") enabled our eBPF JIT for MIPS32 kernels, whereas it has
previously only been availailable for MIPS64. It was my understanding at
the time that the BPF test suite was passing & JITing a comparable
number of tests to our cBPF JIT [1], but it turns out that was not the
case.

The eBPF JIT has a number of problems on MIPS32:

- Most notably various code paths still result in emission of MIPS64
instructions which will cause reserved instruction exceptions & kernel
panics when run on MIPS32 CPUs.

- The eBPF JIT doesn't account for differences between the O32 ABI used
by MIPS32 kernels versus the N64 ABI used by MIPS64 kernels. Notably
arguments beyond the first 4 are passed on the stack in O32, and this
is entirely unhandled when JITing a BPF_CALL instruction. Stack space
must be reserved for arguments even if they all fit in registers, and
the callee is free to assume that stack space has been reserved for
its use - with the eBPF JIT this is not the case, so calling any
function can result in clobbering values on the stack & unpredictable
behaviour. Function arguments in eBPF are always 64-bit values which
is also entirely unhandled - the JIT still uses a single (32-bit)
register per argument. As a result all function arguments are always
passed incorrectly when JITing a BPF_CALL instruction, leading to
kernel crashes or strange behavior.

- The JIT attempts to bail our on use of ALU64 instructions or 64-bit
memory access instructions. The code doing this at the start of
build_one_insn() incorrectly checks whether BPF_OP() equals BPF_DW,
when it should really be checking BPF_SIZE() & only doing so when
BPF_CLASS() is one of BPF_{LD,LDX,ST,STX}. This results in false
positives that cause more bailouts than intended, and that in turns
hides some of the problems described above.

- The kernel's cBPF->eBPF translation makes heavy use of 64-bit eBPF
instructions that the MIPS32 eBPF JIT bails out on, leading to most
cBPF programs not being JITed at all.

Until these problems are resolved, revert the removal of the cBPF JIT
performed by commit 716850ab104d ("MIPS: eBPF: Initial eBPF support for
MIPS32 architecture."). Together with commit f8fffebdea75 ("MIPS: BPF:
Disable MIPS32 eBPF JIT") this restores MIPS32 BPF JIT behavior back to
the same state it was prior to the introduction of the broken eBPF JIT
support.

MIPS: BPF: Introduce BPF ASM helpers

This commit introduces BPF ASM helpers for MIPS and MIPS64 kernels.
The purpose of this patch is to twofold:

1) We are now able to handle negative offsets instead of either
falling back to the interpreter or to simply not do anything and
bail out.

2) Optimize reads from the packet header instead of calling the C
helpers

Because of this patch, we are now able to get rid of quite a bit of
code in the JIT generation process by using MIPS optimized assembly
code. The new assembly code makes the test_bpf testsuite happy with
all 60 test passing successfully compared to the previous
implementation where 2 tests were failing.
Doing some basic analysis in the results between the old
implementation and the new one we can obtain the following
summary running current mainline on an ER8 board (+/- 30us delta is
ignored to prevent noise from kernel scheduling or IRQ latencies):

Summary: 22 tests are faster, 7 are slower and 47 saw no improvement

with the most notable improvement being the tcpdump tests. The 7 tests
that seem to be a bit slower is because they all follow the slow path
(bpf_internal_load_pointer_neg_helper) which is meant to be slow so
that's not a problem.
