x86/mm/pti: Prepare the x86/entry assembly code for entry/exit CR3 switching
PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION needs to switch to a different CR3 value when it enters the kernel and switch back when it exits. This essentially needs to be done before leaving assembly code. This is extra challenging because the switching context is tricky: the registers that can be clobbered can vary. It is also hard to store things on the stack because there is an established ABI (ptregs) or the stack is entirely unsafe to use. Establish a set of macros that allow changing to the user and kernel CR3 values. Interactions with SWAPGS: Previous versions of the PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION code relied on having per-CPU scratch space to save/restore a register that can be used for the CR3 MOV. The %GS register is used to index into our per-CPU space, so SWAPGS *had* to be done before the CR3 switch. That scratch space is gone now, but the semantic that SWAPGS must be done before the CR3 MOV is retained. This is good to keep because it is not that hard to do and it allows to do things like add per-CPU debugging information. What this does in the NMI code is worth pointing out. NMIs can interrupt *any* context and they can also be nested with NMIs interrupting other NMIs. The comments below ".Lnmi_from_kernel" explain the format of the stack during this situation. Changing the format of this stack is hard. Instead of storing the old CR3 value on the stack, this depends on the *regular* register save/restore mechanism and then uses %r14 to keep CR3 during the NMI. It is callee-saved and will not be clobbered by the C NMI handlers that get called.
