x86/xen: remove hypercall page

commit 7fa0da5373685e7ed249af3fa317ab1e1ba8b0a6 upstream.

The hypercall page is no longer needed. It can be removed, as from the
Xen perspective it is optional.

But, from Linux's perspective, it removes naked RET instructions that
escape the speculative protections that Call Depth Tracking and/or
Untrain Ret are trying to achieve.

This is part of XSA-466 / CVE-2024-53241.

Merge tag 'objtool-core-2023-06-27' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molar:
"Build footprint & performance improvements:

- Reduce memory usage with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y

In the worst case of an allyesconfig+CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y kernel,
DWARF creates almost 200 million relocations, ballooning objtool's
peak heap usage to 53GB. These patches reduce that to 25GB.

On a distro-type kernel with kernel IBT enabled, they reduce
objtool's peak heap usage from 4.2GB to 2.8GB.

These changes also improve the runtime significantly.

Debuggability improvements:

- Add the unwind_debug command-line option, for more extend unwinding
debugging output
- Limit unreachable warnings to once per function
- Add verbose option for disassembling affected functions
- Include backtrace in verbose mode
- Detect missing __noreturn annotations
- Ignore exc_double_fault() __noreturn warnings
- Remove superfluous global_noreturns entries
- Move noreturn function list to separate file
- Add __kunit_abort() to noreturns

Unwinder improvements:

- Allow stack operations in UNWIND_HINT_UNDEFINED regions
- drm/vmwgfx: Add unwind hints around RBP clobber

Cleanups:

- Move the x86 entry thunk restore code into thunk functions
- x86/unwind/orc: Use swap() instead of open coding it
- Remove unnecessary/unused variables

Fixes for modern stack canary handling"

Merge tag 'smp-core-2023-06-26' of ssh://gitolite.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull SMP updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large update for SMP management:

- Parallel CPU bringup

The reason why people are interested in parallel bringup is to
shorten the (kexec) reboot time of cloud servers to reduce the
downtime of the VM tenants.

The current fully serialized bringup does the following per AP:

1) Prepare callbacks (allocate, intialize, create threads)
2) Kick the AP alive (e.g. INIT/SIPI on x86)
3) Wait for the AP to report alive state
4) Let the AP continue through the atomic bringup
5) Let the AP run the threaded bringup to full online state

There are two significant delays:

#3 The time for an AP to report alive state in start_secondary()
on x86 has been measured in the range between 350us and 3.5ms
depending on vendor and CPU type, BIOS microcode size etc.

#4 The atomic bringup does the microcode update. This has been
measured to take up to ~8ms on the primary threads depending
on the microcode patch size to apply.

On a two socket SKL server with 56 cores (112 threads) the boot CPU
spends on current mainline about 800ms busy waiting for the APs to
come up and apply microcode. That's more than 80% of the actual
onlining procedure.

This can be reduced significantly by splitting the bringup
mechanism into two parts:

1) Run the prepare callbacks and kick the AP alive for each AP
which needs to be brought up.

The APs wake up, do their firmware initialization and run the
low level kernel startup code including microcode loading in
parallel up to the first synchronization point. (#1 and #2
above)

2) Run the rest of the bringup code strictly serialized per CPU
(#3 - #5 above) as it's done today.

Parallelizing that stage of the CPU bringup might be possible
in theory, but it's questionable whether required surgery
would be justified for a pretty small gain.

If the system is large enough the first AP is already waiting at
the first synchronization point when the boot CPU finished the
wake-up of the last AP. That reduces the AP bringup time on that
SKL from ~800ms to ~80ms, i.e. by a factor ~10x.

The actual gain varies wildly depending on the system, CPU,
microcode patch size and other factors. There are some
opportunities to reduce the overhead further, but that needs some
deep surgery in the x86 CPU bringup code.

For now this is only enabled on x86, but the core functionality
obviously works for all SMP capable architectures.

- Enhancements for SMP function call tracing so it is possible to
locate the scheduling and the actual execution points. That allows
to measure IPI delivery time precisely"

Revert "x86/orc: Make it callthunk aware"

Commit 396e0b8e09e8 ("x86/orc: Make it callthunk aware") attempted to
deal with the fact that function prefix code didn't have ORC coverage.
However, it didn't work as advertised. Use of the "null" ORC entry just
caused affected unwinds to end early.

The root cause has now been fixed with commit 5743654f5e2e ("objtool:
Generate ORC data for __pfx code").

Revert most of commit 396e0b8e09e8 ("x86/orc: Make it callthunk aware").
The is_callthunk() function remains as it's now used by other code.
