arm64: uaccess: remove set_fs()



Now that the uaccess primitives dont take addr_limit into account, we
have no need to manipulate this via set_fs() and get_fs(). Remove
support for these, along with some infrastructure this renders
redundant.

We no longer need to flip UAO to access kernel memory under KERNEL_DS,
and head.S unconditionally clears UAO for all kernel configurations via
an ERET in init_kernel_el. Thus, we don't need to dynamically flip UAO,
nor do we need to context-switch it. However, we still need to adjust
PAN during SDEI entry.

Masking of __user pointers no longer needs to use the dynamic value of
addr_limit, and can use a constant derived from the maximum possible
userspace task size. A new TASK_SIZE_MAX constant is introduced for
this, which is also used by core code. In configurations supporting
52-bit VAs, this may include a region of unusable VA space above a
48-bit TTBR0 limit, but never includes any portion of TTBR1.

Note that TASK_SIZE_MAX is an exclusive limit, while USER_DS and
KERNEL_DS were inclusive limits, and is converted to a mask by
subtracting one.

As the SDEI entry code repurposes the otherwise unnecessary
pt_regs::orig_addr_limit field to store the TTBR1 of the interrupted
context, for now we rename that to pt_regs::sdei_ttbr1. In future we can
consider factoring that out.
