powerpc/rtas: arch-wide function token lookup conversions

With the tokens for all implemented RTAS functions now available via
rtas_function_token(), which is optimal and safe for arbitrary
contexts, there is no need to use rtas_token() or cache its result.

Most conversions are trivial, but a few are worth describing in more
detail:

* Error injection token comparisons for lockdown purposes are
consolidated into a simple predicate: token_is_restricted_errinjct().

* A couple of special cases in block_rtas_call() do not use
rtas_token() but perform string comparisons against names in the
function table. These are converted to compare against token values
instead, which is logically equivalent but less expensive.

* The lookup for the ibm,os-term token can be deferred until needed,
instead of caching it at boot to avoid device tree traversal during
panic.

* Since rtas_function_token() accesses a read-only data structure
without taking any locks, xmon's lookup of set-indicator can be
performed as needed instead of cached at startup.

powerpc/pseries: add RTAS work area allocator

Various pseries-specific RTAS functions take a temporary "work area"
parameter - a buffer in memory accessible to RTAS. Typically such
functions are passed the statically allocated rtas_data_buf buffer as
the argument. This buffer is protected by a global spinlock. So users
of rtas_data_buf cannot perform sleeping operations while accessing
the buffer.

Most RTAS functions that have a work area parameter can return a
status (-2/990x) that indicates that the caller should retry. Before
retrying, the caller may need to reschedule or sleep (see
rtas_busy_delay() for details). This combination of factors
leads to uncomfortable constructions like this:

do {
spin_lock(&rtas_data_buf_lock);
rc = rtas_call(token, __pa(rtas_data_buf, ...);
if (rc == 0) {
/* parse or copy out rtas_data_buf contents */
}
spin_unlock(&rtas_data_buf_lock);
} while (rtas_busy_delay(rc));

Another unfortunately common way of handling this is for callers to
blithely ignore the possibility of a -2/990x status and hope for the
best.

If users were allowed to perform blocking operations while owning a
work area, the programming model would become less tedious and
error-prone. Users could schedule away, sleep, or perform other
blocking operations without having to release and re-acquire
resources.

We could continue to use a single work area buffer, and convert
rtas_data_buf_lock to a mutex. But that would impose an unnecessarily
coarse serialization on all users. As awkward as the current design
is, it prevents longer running operations that need to repeatedly use
rtas_data_buf from blocking the progress of others.

There are more considerations. One is that while 4KB is fine for all
current in-kernel uses, some RTAS calls can take much smaller buffers,
and some (VPD, platform dumps) would likely benefit from larger
ones. Another is that at least one RTAS function (ibm,get-vpd)
has *two* work area parameters. And finally, we should expect the
number of work area users in the kernel to increase over time as we
introduce lockdown-compatible ABIs to replace less safe use cases
based on sys_rtas/librtas.

So a special-purpose allocator for RTAS work area buffers seems worth
trying.

Properties:

* The backing memory for the allocator is reserved early in boot in
order to satisfy RTAS addressing requirements, and then managed with
genalloc.
* Allocations can block, but they never fail (mempool-like).
* Prioritizes first-come, first-serve fairness over throughput.
* Early boot allocations before the allocator has been initialized are
served via an internal static buffer.

Intended to replace rtas_data_buf. New code that needs RTAS work area
buffers should prefer this API.
