Subject: [PATCH 3/3] x86/pti/64: Remove the SYSCALL64 entry trampoline

The SYSCALL64 trampoline has a couple of nice properties:

 - The usual sequence of SWAPGS followed by two GS-relative accesses to
   set up RSP is somewhat slow because the GS-relative accesses need
   to wait for SWAPGS to finish.  The trampoline approach allows
   RIP-relative accesses to set up RSP, which avoids the stall.

 - The trampoline avoids any percpu access before CR3 is set up,
   which means that no percpu memory needs to be mapped in the user
   page tables.  This prevents using Meltdown to read any percpu memory
   outside the cpu_entry_area and prevents using timing leaks
   to directly locate the percpu areas.

The downsides of using a trampoline may outweigh the upsides, however.
It adds an extra non-contiguous I$ cache line to system calls, and it
forces an indirect jump to transfer control back to the normal kernel
text after CR3 is set up.  The latter is because x86 lacks a 64-bit
direct jump instruction that could jump from the trampoline to the entry
text.  With retpolines enabled, the indirect jump is extremely slow.

This patch changes the code to map the percpu TSS into the user page
tables to allow the non-trampoline SYSCALL64 path to work under PTI.
This does not add a new direct information leak, since the TSS is
readable by Meltdown from the cpu_entry_area alias regardless.  It
does allow a timing attack to locate the percpu area, but KASLR is
more or less a lost cause against local attack on CPUs vulnerable to
Meltdown regardless.  As far as I'm concerned, on current hardware,
KASLR is only useful to mitigate remote attacks that try to attack
the kernel without first gaining RCE against a vulnerable user
process.

On Skylake, with CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y and KPTI on, this reduces
syscall overhead from ~237ns to ~228ns.

There is a possible alternative approach: we could instead move the
trampoline within 2G of the entry text and make a separate copy for
each CPU.  Then we could use a direct jump to rejoin the normal
entry path.
