James Morse 2671828c3f arm64: entry: Move ct_user_exit before any other exception
When taking an SError or Debug exception from EL0, we run the C
handler for these exceptions before updating the context tracking
code and unmasking lower priority interrupts.

When booting with nohz_full lockdep tells us we got this wrong:
| =============================
| WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
| 5.3.0-rc2-00010-gb4b5e9dcb11b-dirty #11271 Not tainted
| -----------------------------
| include/linux/rcupdate.h:643 rcu_read_unlock() used illegally wh!
|
| other info that might help us debug this:

| RCU used illegally from idle CPU!
| rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
| RCU used illegally from extended quiescent state!
| 1 lock held by a.out/432:

|  do_debug_exception+0x11c/0x278
|  el0_dbg+0x14/0x20

Moving the ct_user_exit calls to be before do_debug_exception() means
they are also before trace_hardirqs_off() has been updated. Add a new
ct_user_exit_irqoff macro to avoid the context-tracking code using
irqsave/restore before we've updated trace_hardirqs_off(). To be
consistent, do this everywhere.

The C helper is called enter_from_user_mode() to match x86 in the hope
we can merge them into kernel/context_tracking.c later.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
