commit 153a4334c439cfb62e1d31cee0c790ba4157813d upstream
asm/atomic.h doesn't really need asm/processor.h anymore. Everything
it uses has moved to other header files. So remove that include.
processor.h is a nasty header that includes lots of
other headers and makes it prone to include loops. Removing the
include here makes asm/atomic.h a "leaf" header that can
be safely included in most other headers.
The only fallout is in the lib/atomic tester which relied on
this implicit include. Give it an explicit include.
(the include is in ifdef because the user is also in ifdef)

This brings .text savings of about ~1.6K when building a tinyconfig. It
is off by default so nothing changes for the default.

Hi Greg,
This patch series is a backport of the Spectre-v2 fixes (IBPB/IBRS)
and patches for the Speculative Store Bypass vulnerability to 4.4.y
(they apply cleanly on top of 4.4.140).
I used 4.9.y as my reference when backporting to 4.4.y (as I thought
that would minimize the amount of fixing up necessary). Unfortunately
I had to skip the KVM fixes for these vulnerabilities, as the KVM
codebase is drastically different in 4.4 as compared to 4.9. (I tried
my best to backport them initially, but wasn't confident that they
were correct, so I decided to drop them from this series).
You'll notice that the initial few patches in this series include
cleanups etc., that are non-critical to IBPB/IBRS/SSBD. Most of these
patches are aimed at getting the cpufeature.h vs cpufeatures.h split
into 4.4, since a lot of the subsequent patches update these headers.
On my first attempt to backport these patches to 4.4.y, I had actually
tried to do all the updates on the cpufeature.h file itself, but it
started getting very cumbersome, so I resorted to backporting the
cpufeature.h vs cpufeatures.h split and their dependencies as well. I
think apart from these initial patches, the rest of the patchset
doesn't have all that much noise.
This patchset has been tested on both Intel and AMD machines (Intel
Xeon CPU E5-2660 v4 and AMD EPYC 7281 16-Core Processor, respectively)
with updated microcode. All the patch backports have been
independently reviewed by Matt Helsley, Alexey Makhalov and Bo Gan.
I would appreciate if you could kindly consider these patches for
review and inclusion in a future 4.4.y release.
Thank you very much!
Regards,
Srivatsa
