[PATCH v2 00/12] x86/msr: Inline rdmsr/wrmsr instructions

[Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>]

When building a kernel with CONFIG_PARAVIRT_XXL the paravirt
infrastructure will always use functions for reading or writing MSRs,
even when running on bare metal.

Switch to inline RDMSR/WRMSR instructions in this case, reducing the
paravirt overhead.

In order to make this less intrusive, some further reorganization of
the MSR access helpers is done in the first 5 patches.

The next 5 patches are converting the non-paravirt case to use direct
inlining of the MSR access instructions, including the WRMSRNS
instruction and the immediate variants of RDMSR and WRMSR if possible.

Patch 11 removes the PV hooks for MSR accesses and implements the
Xen PV cases via calls depending on X86_FEATURE_XENPV, which results
in runtime patching those calls away for the non-XenPV case.

Patch 12 is a final little cleanup patch.

This series has been tested to work with Xen PV and on bare metal.

This series is inspired by Xin Li, who used a similar approach, but
(in my opinion) with some flaws. Originally I thought it should be
possible to use the paravirt infrastructure, but this turned out to be
rather complicated, especially for the Xen PV case in the *_safe()
variants of the MSR access functions.

Changes since V1:
- Use Xin Li's approach for inlining
- Several new patches

Juergen Gross (9):
  coco/tdx: Rename MSR access helpers
  x86/sev: replace call of native_wrmsr() with native_wrmsrq()
  x86/kvm: Remove the KVM private read_msr() function
  x86/msr: minimize usage of native_*() msr access functions
  x86/msr: Move MSR trace calls one function level up
  x86/msr: Use the alternatives mechanism for WRMSR
  x86/msr: Use the alternatives mechanism for RDMSR
  x86/paravirt: Don't use pv_ops vector for MSR access functions
  x86/msr: Reduce number of low level MSR access helpers

Xin Li (Intel) (3):
  x86/cpufeatures: Add a CPU feature bit for MSR immediate form
    instructions
  x86/opcode: Add immediate form MSR instructions
  x86/extable: Add support for immediate form MSR instructions
