x86/retpoline: Ensure default return thunk isn't used at runtime

Make sure the default return thunk is not used after all return
instructions have been patched by the alternatives because the default
return thunk is insufficient when it comes to mitigating Retbleed or
SRSO.

Fix based on an earlier version by David Kaplan <david.kaplan@amd.com>.

[ bp: Fix the compilation error of warn_thunk_thunk being an invisible
symbol, hoist thunk macro into calling.h ]

x86/headers: Replace #include <asm/export.h> with #include <linux/export.h>

The following commit:

ddb5cdbafaaa ("kbuild: generate KSYMTAB entries by modpost")

deprecated <asm/export.h>, which is now a wrapper of <linux/export.h>.

Use <linux/export.h> in *.S as well as in *.c files.

After all the <asm/export.h> lines are replaced, <asm/export.h> and
<asm-generic/export.h> will be removed.

x86/entry: Build thunk_$(BITS) only if CONFIG_PREEMPTION=y

With CONFIG_PREEMPTION disabled, arch/x86/entry/thunk_$(BITS).o becomes
an empty object file.

With some old versions of binutils (i.e., 2.35.90.20210113-1ubuntu1) the
GNU assembler doesn't generate a symbol table for empty object files and
objtool fails with the following error when a valid symbol table cannot
be found:

arch/x86/entry/thunk_64.o: warning: objtool: missing symbol table

To prevent this from happening, build thunk_$(BITS).o only if
CONFIG_PREEMPTION is enabled.

x86: Prepare asm files for straight-line-speculation

Replace all ret/retq instructions with RET in preparation of making
RET a macro. Since AS is case insensitive it's a big no-op without
RET defined.

# 76dc6d60 11-Oct-2019 Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@kernel.org>

x86/asm/entry: Annotate THUNKs

Place SYM_*_START_NOALIGN and SYM_*_END around the THUNK macro body.
Preserve @function by FUNC (64bit) and CODE (32bit). Given it was not
marked as aligned, use NOALIGN.

The result:
Value Size Type Bind Vis Ndx Name
0000 28 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 trace_hardirqs_on_thunk
001c 28 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 trace_hardirqs_off_thunk
0038 24 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 lockdep_sys_exit_thunk
0050 24 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 ___preempt_schedule
0068 24 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 ___preempt_schedule_notra

The annotation of .L_restore does not generate anything (at the moment).
Here, it just serves documentation purposes (as opening and closing
brackets of functions).

x86: Use CONFIG_PREEMPTION

CONFIG_PREEMPTION is selected by CONFIG_PREEMPT and by
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT. Both PREEMPT and PREEMPT_RT require the same
functionality which today depends on CONFIG_PREEMPT.

Switch the entry code, preempt and kprobes conditionals over to
CONFIG_PREEMPTION.

x86/asm/entry: Move the 'thunk' functions to arch/x86/entry/

These are all calling x86 entry code functions, so move them close
to other entry code.

Change lib-y to obj-y: there's no real difference between the two
as we don't really drop any of them during the linking stage, and
obj-y is the more common approach for core kernel object code.
