time/sched_clock: Provide sched_clock_noinstr()

With the intent to provide local_clock_noinstr(), a variant of
local_clock() that's safe to be called from noinstr code (with the
assumption that any such code will already be non-preemptible),
prepare for things by providing a noinstr sched_clock_noinstr() function.

Specifically, preempt_enable_*() calls out to schedule(), which upsets
noinstr validation efforts.

As such, pull out the preempt_{dis,en}able_notrace() requirements from
the sched_clock_read() implementations by explicitly providing it in
the sched_clock() function.

This further requires said sched_clock_read() functions to be noinstr
themselves, for ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR users. See the next few patches.

seqlock/latch: Provide raw_read_seqcount_latch_retry()

The read side of seqcount_latch consists of:

do {
seq = raw_read_seqcount_latch(&latch->seq);
...
} while (read_seqcount_latch_retry(&latch->seq, seq));

which is asymmetric in the raw_ department, and sure enough,
read_seqcount_latch_retry() includes (explicit) instrumentation where
raw_read_seqcount_latch() does not.

This inconsistency becomes a problem when trying to use it from
noinstr code. As such, fix it by renaming and re-implementing
raw_read_seqcount_latch_retry() without the instrumentation.

Specifically the instrumentation in question is kcsan_atomic_next(0)
in do___read_seqcount_retry(). Loosing this annotation is not a
problem because raw_read_seqcount_latch() does not pass through
kcsan_atomic_next(KCSAN_SEQLOCK_REGION_MAX).

This reduces the amount of data lost due to rounding, but hasn't been
replicated for the kHz range when support was added for proper reporting of
sub-kHz clock rates. Take the same approach for rates between 1kHz
(inclusive) and 4kHz (exclusive), which makes it consistent.

timers/sched_clock: Prevent generic sched_clock wrap caused by tick_freeze()

tick_freeze() introduced by suspend-to-idle in commit 124cf9117c5f ("PM /
sleep: Make it possible to quiesce timers during suspend-to-idle") uses
timekeeping_suspend() instead of syscore_suspend() during
suspend-to-idle. As a consequence generic sched_clock will keep going
because sched_clock_suspend() and sched_clock_resume() are not invoked
during suspend-to-idle which can result in a generic sched_clock wrap.

On a ARM system with suspend-to-idle enabled, sched_clock is registered
as "56 bits at 13MHz, resolution 76ns, wraps every 4398046511101ns", which
means the real wrapping duration is 8796093022202ns.

[ 134.551779] suspend-to-idle suspend (timekeeping_suspend())

sched_clock was not stopped during suspend-to-idle, and sched_clock_poll
hrtimer was not expired because timekeeping_suspend() was invoked during
suspend-to-idle. It makes sched_clock wrap at kernel time 8796s.

To prevent this, invoke sched_clock_suspend() and sched_clock_resume() in
tick_freeze() together with timekeeping_suspend() and timekeeping_resume().

Update the time(r) core files files with the correct SPDX license

This work is based on a script and data from Philippe Ombredanne, Kate
Stewart and myself. The data has been created with two independent license
scanners and manual inspection.

The following files do not contain any direct license information and have
been omitted from the big initial SPDX changes:

timeconst.bc: The .bc files were not touched
time.c, timer.c, timekeeping.c: Licence was deduced from EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL

As those files do not contain direct license references they fall under the
project license, i.e. GPL V2 only.

timers, sched_clock: Update timeout for clock wrap

The scheduler clock framework may not use the correct timeout for the clock
wrap. This happens when a new clock driver calls sched_clock_register()
after the kernel called sched_clock_postinit(). In this case the clock wrap
timeout is too long thus sched_clock_poll() is called too late and the clock
already wrapped.

On my ARM system the scheduler was no longer scheduling any other task than
the idle task because the sched_clock() wrapped.

sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to <linux/sched/clock.h>

We are going to split <linux/sched/clock.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/clock.h> file that just
maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

- Improve and standardize comments
- Standardize the coding style

timers, sched/clock: Avoid deadlock during read from NMI

Currently it is possible for an NMI (or FIQ on ARM) to come in
and read sched_clock() whilst update_sched_clock() has locked
the seqcount for writing. This results in the NMI handler
locking up when it calls raw_read_seqcount_begin().

This patch fixes the NMI safety issues by providing banked clock
data. This is a similar approach to the one used in Thomas
Gleixner's 4396e058c52e("timekeeping: Provide fast and NMI safe
access to CLOCK_MONOTONIC").
