[PATCH RESEND v9 07/36] x86/cpu: Add X86_CR4_FRED macro

[Xin Li <xin3.li@xxxxxxxxx>]

From: "H. Peter Anvin (Intel)" <hpa@xxxxxxxxx>

Add X86_CR4_FRED macro for the FRED bit in %cr4. This bit should be a
pinned bit, not to be changed after initialization.

CR4 macros are defined in arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/processor-flags.h,
which is uapi, and thus cannot depend on CONFIG_X86_64.

Using _BITUL() causes build errors on 32 bits, and there is no
guarantee that user space applications (e.g. something like Qemu)
might not want to use this declaration even when building for i386 or
x32.

However, %cr4 is a machine word (unsigned long), so to avoid build
warnings on 32 bits, explicitly cast the value to unsigned long,
truncating upper 32 bits.

The other alternative would be to use CONFIG_X86_64 around the
definition of cr4_pinned_mask. It is probably not desirable to make
cr4_pinned_mask non-const.

Another option, which may be preferable, to be honest: explicitly
enumerate the CR4 bits which *may* be changed (a whitelist), instead
of the ones that may not. That would be a separate, pre-FRED, patch,
and would automatically resolve this problem as a side effect.

The following flags probably should have been in this set all along,
as they are all controls affecting the kernel runtime environment as
opposed to user space:

X86_CR4_DE, X86_CR4_PAE, X86_CR4_PSE, X86_CR4_MCE, X86_CR4_PGE,
X86_CR4_OSFXSR, X86_CR4_OSXMMEXCPT, X86_CR4_LA57, X86_CR4_PCIDE,
X86_CR4_LAM_SUP

Possibly X86_CR4_VMXE as well, which seems harmless even if KVM is
not loaded; X86_CR4_PKE can be fixed as long as the PKE configuration
registers are at least initialized to disabled.

It is relatively simple to do an audit of which flags are allowed to
be modified at runtime and whitelist only those. There is no reason
why we should allow bits in CR4 to be toggled by default.
