kbuild: unify vdso_install rules

Currently, there is no standard implementation for vdso_install,
leading to various issues:

1. Code duplication

Many architectures duplicate similar code just for copying files
to the install destination.

Some architectures (arm, sparc, x86) create build-id symlinks,
introducing more code duplication.

2. Unintended updates of in-tree build artifacts

The vdso_install rule depends on the vdso files to install.
It may update in-tree build artifacts. This can be problematic,
as explained in commit 19514fc665ff ("arm, kbuild: make
"make install" not depend on vmlinux").

3. Broken code in some architectures

Makefile code is often copied from one architecture to another
without proper adaptation.

'make vdso_install' for parisc does not work.

'make vdso_install' for s390 installs vdso64, but not vdso32.

To address these problems, this commit introduces a generic vdso_install
rule.

Architectures that support vdso_install need to define vdso-install-y
in arch/*/Makefile. vdso-install-y lists the files to install.

For example, arch/x86/Makefile looks like this:

vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_64) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso64.so.dbg
vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdsox32.so.dbg
vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_32) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg
vdso-install-$(CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg

These files will be installed to $(MODLIB)/vdso/ with the .dbg suffix,
if exists, stripped away.

vdso-install-y can optionally take the second field after the colon
separator. This is needed because some architectures install a vdso
file as a different base name.

The following is a snippet from arch/arm64/Makefile.

vdso-install-$(CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO) += arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/vdso.so.dbg:vdso32.so

This will rename vdso.so.dbg to vdso32.so during installation. If such
architectures change their implementation so that the base names match,
this workaround will go away.

riscv: Handle zicsr/zifencei issue between gcc and binutils

Binutils-2.38 and GCC-12.1.0 bumped[0][1] the default ISA spec to the newer
20191213 version which moves some instructions from the I extension to the
Zicsr and Zifencei extensions. So if one of the binutils and GCC exceeds
that version, we should explicitly specifying Zicsr and Zifencei via -march
to cope with the new changes. but this only occurs when binutils >= 2.36
and GCC >= 11.1.0. It's a different story when binutils < 2.36.

binutils-2.36 supports the Zifencei extension[2] and splits Zifencei and
Zicsr from I[3]. GCC-11.1.0 is particular[4] because it add support Zicsr
and Zifencei extension for -march. binutils-2.35 does not support the
Zifencei extension, and does not need to specify Zicsr and Zifencei when
working with GCC >= 12.1.0.

To make our lives easier, let's relax the check to binutils >= 2.36 in
CONFIG_TOOLCHAIN_NEEDS_EXPLICIT_ZICSR_ZIFENCEI. For the other two cases,
where clang < 17 or GCC < 11.1.0, we will deal with them in
CONFIG_TOOLCHAIN_NEEDS_OLD_ISA_SPEC.

For more information, please refer to:
commit 6df2a016c0c8 ("riscv: fix build with binutils 2.38")
commit e89c2e815e76 ("riscv: Handle zicsr/zifencei issues between clang and binutils")

RISC-V: Add hwprobe vDSO function and data

Add a vDSO function __vdso_riscv_hwprobe, which can sit in front of the
riscv_hwprobe syscall and answer common queries. We stash a copy of
static answers for the "all CPUs" case in the vDSO data page. This data
is private to the vDSO, so we can decide later to change what's stored
there or under what conditions we defer to the syscall. Currently all
data can be discovered at boot, so the vDSO function answers all queries
when the cpumask is set to the "all CPUs" hint.

There's also a boolean in the data that lets the vDSO function know that
all CPUs are the same. In that case, the vDSO will also answer queries
for arbitrary CPU masks in addition to the "all CPUs" hint.

RISC-V: Stop emitting attributes

The RISC-V ELF attributes don't contain any useful information. New
toolchains ignore them, but they frequently trip up various older/mixed
toolchains. So just turn them off.

riscv: compat: vdso: Add COMPAT_VDSO base code implementation

There is no vgettimeofday supported in rv32 that makes simple to
generate rv32 vdso code which only needs riscv64 compiler. Other
architectures need change compiler or -m (machine parameter) to
support vdso32 compiling. If rv32 support vgettimeofday (which
cause C compile) in future, we would add CROSS_COMPILE to support
that makes more requirement on compiler enviornment.

Finally, reuse all *.S from vdso in compat_vdso that makes
implementation clear and readable.
