With the UM_SIGNAL alignment fault mode, no siginfo structure is
passed to userspace.
POSIX specifies how siginfo_t should be populated for alignment
faults, so this patch does just that:
* si_signo = SIGBUS
* si_code = BUS_ADRALN
* si_addr = misaligned data address at which access was attempted

Currently, it's possible to set the kernel to ignore alignment
faults when changing the alignment fault handling mode at runtime
via /proc/sys/alignment, even though this is undesirable on ARMv6
and above, where it can result in infinite spins where an un-fixed-
up instruction repeatedly faults.
In addition, the kernel clobbers any alignment mode specified on
the command-line if running on ARMv6 or above.
This patch factors out the necessary safety check into a couple of
new helper functions, and checks and modifies the fault handling
mode as appropriate on boot and on writes to /proc/cpu/alignment.
Prior to ARMv6, the behaviour is unchanged.
For ARMv6 and above, the behaviour changes as follows:
* Attempting to ignore faults on ARMv6 results in the mode being
forced to UM_FIXUP instead. A warning is printed if this
happened as a result of a write to /proc/cpu/alignment. The
user's UM_WARN bit (if present) is still honoured.
* An alignment= argument from the kernel command-line is now
honoured, except that the kernel will modify the specified mode
as described above. This is allows modes such as UM_SIGNAL and
UM_WARN to be active immediately from boot, which is useful for
debugging purposes.

Avoid enabling interrupts if the parent context had interrupts enabled
in the abort handler assembly code, and move this into the breakpoint/
page/alignment fault handlers instead.
This gets rid of some special-casing for the breakpoint fault handlers
from the low level abort handler path.

When the policy for user space is to ignore misaligned accesses from user
space, the processor then performs a documented rotation on the accessed
data. This is the result of the access being trapped, and the kernel
disabling the alignment trap before returning to user space again.
In kernel space we always want misaligned accesses to be fixed up. This
is enforced by always re-enabling the alignment trap on every entry into
kernel space from user space. No such re-enabling is performed when an
exception occurs while already in kernel space as the alignment trap is
always supposed to be enabled in that case.
There is however a small race window when a misaligned access in user
space is trapped and the alignment trap disabled, but the CPU didn't
return to user space just yet. Any exception would be entered from kernel
space at that point and the kernel would then execute with the alignment
trap disabled.
Thanks to Maxime Bizon <mbizon@freebox.fr> for providing a test module
that made this issue reproducible.

/tmp/ccJ3ssZW.s: Assembler messages:

This is caused because:
.section .data
.section .text
.section .text
.previous
does not return us to the .text section, but the .data section; this
makes use of .previous dangerous if the ordering of previous sections
is not known.
Fix up the other users of .previous; .pushsection and .popsection are
a safer pairing to use than .section and .previous.

Some glibc versions intentionally create lots of alignment faults in
their gconv code, which if not fixed up, results in segfaults during
boot. This can prevent systems booting properly.
There is no clear hard-configurable default for this; the desired
default depends on the nature of the userspace which is going to be
booted.
So, provide a way for the alignment fault handler to be configured via
the kernel command line.

PUSH, STM and STRD instructions. Alignment fault fixup support for
the remaining 32-bit Thumb-2 load/store instruction cases is not
included since ARMv6 and later processors include hardware support
for loads and stores of unaligned words and halfwords.

On ARMv6 and later CPUs, it is possible for userspace processes to
get stuck on a misaligned load or store due to the "ignore fault"
setting; unlike previous CPUs, retrying the instruction without
the 'A' bit set does not always cause the load to succeed.
We have no real option but to default to fixing up alignment faults
on these CPUs, and having the CPU fix up those misaligned accesses
which it can.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
