He Chen 493ab190e5 xen/sm{e, a}p: allow disabling sm{e, a}p for Xen itself
SMEP/SMAP is a security feature to prevent kernel executing/accessing
user address involuntarily, any such behavior will lead to a page fault.

SMEP/SMAP is open (in CR4) for both Xen and HVM guest in earlier code.
SMEP/SMAP bit set in Xen CR4 would enforce security checking for 32-bit
PV guest which will suffer unknown SMEP/SMAP page fault when guest
kernel attempt to access user address although SMEP/SMAP is close for
PV guests.

This patch introduces a new boot option value "hvm" for "sm{e,a}p", it
is going to diable SMEP/SMAP for Xen hypervisor while enable them for
HVM. In this way, 32-bit PV guest will not suffer SMEP/SMAP security
issue. Users can choose whether open SMEP/SMAP for Xen itself,
especially when they are going to run 32-bit PV guests.

He Chen 73b3bf10b4 x86/PSR: fix compilation error after 44f126d
In non-debug build ASSERT_UNREACHABLE is nop and some compilers will
complain that cbm_code/cbm_data may be used uninitialized in function
psr_set_l3_cbm. Add return after ASSERT_UNREACHABLE to fix it.

He Chen 44f126d3d3 x86: add domctl cmd to set/get CDP code/data CBM
CDP extends CAT and provides the capacity to control L3 code & data
cache. With CDP, one COS corresponds to two CMBs(code & data). cbm_type
is added to distinguish different CBM operations. Besides, new domctl
cmds are introdunced to support set/get CDP CBM. Some CAT functions to
operation CBMs are extended to support CDP.

He Chen 56b9a5130f x86: support enable CDP by boot parameter and add get CDP status
Add boot parameter `psr=cdp` to enable CDP at boot time.
Intel Code/Data Prioritization (CDP) feature is based on CAT. Note that
cos_max would be half when CDP is on. struct psr_cat_cbm is extended to
support CDP operation. Extend psr_get_cat_l3_info sysctl to get CDP
status.
