Subject: [PATCH v7 15/41] x86/mm: Update ptep/pmdp_set_wrprotect() for _PAGE_SAVED_DIRTY

From: Yu-cheng Yu <yu-cheng.yu@...el.com>

When shadow stack is in use, Write=0,Dirty=1 PTE are preserved for
shadow stack. Copy-on-write PTEs then have Write=0,SavedDirty=1.

When a PTE goes from Write=1,Dirty=1 to Write=0,SavedDirty=1, it could
become a transient shadow stack PTE in two cases:

1. Some processors can start a write but end up seeing a Write=0 PTE by
   the time they get to the Dirty bit, creating a transient shadow stack
   PTE. However, this will not occur on processors supporting shadow
   stack, and a TLB flush is not necessary.

2. When _PAGE_DIRTY is replaced with _PAGE_SAVED_DIRTY non-atomically, a
   transient shadow stack PTE can be created as a result. Thus, prevent
   that with cmpxchg.

In the case of pmdp_set_wrprotect(), for nopmd configs the ->pmd operated
on does not exist and the logic would need to be different. Although the
extra functionality will normally be optimized out when user shadow
stacks are not configured, also exclude it in the preprocessor stage so
that it will still compile. User shadow stack is not supported there by
Linux anyway. Leave the cpu_feature_enabled() check so that the
functionality also gets disabled based on runtime detection of the
feature.

Similarly, compile it out in ptep_set_wrprotect() due to a clang warning
on i386. Like above, the code path should get optimized out on i386
since shadow stack is not supported on 32 bit kernels, but this makes
the compiler happy.

Dave Hansen, Jann Horn, Andy Lutomirski, and Peter Zijlstra provided many
insights to the issue. Jann Horn provided the cmpxchg solution.
