Move integer jiffies converters (proc_dointvec{_,_ms_,_userhz_}jiffies

New SYSCTL_INT_CONV_CUSTOM macro creates "bi-directional" converters
from a user-to-kernel and a kernel-to-user functions. Replace integer
versions of do_proc_*_conv functions with the ones from the new macro.
Rename "_dointvec_" to just "_int_" as these converters are not applied

Eight converter functions are created using two new macros
(SYSCTL_USER_TO_KERN_INT_CONV & SYSCTL_KERN_TO_USER_INT_CONV); they are
called from four pre-existing converter functions: do_proc_dointvec_conv
and do_proc_dointvec{,_userhz,_ms}_jiffies_conv. The function names
generated by the macros are differentiated by a string suffix passed as
the first macro argument.
The SYSCTL_USER_TO_KERN_INT_CONV macro first executes the u_ptr_op
operation, then checks for overflow, assigns sign (-, +) and finally
writes to the kernel var with WRITE_ONCE; it always returns an -EINVAL
when an overflow is detected. The SYSCTL_KERN_TO_USER_INT_CONV uses
READ_ONCE, casts to unsigned long, then executes the k_ptr_op before
assigning the value to the user space buffer.
The overflow check is always done against MAX_INT after applying
{k,u}_ptr_op. This approach avoids rounding or precision errors that
might occur when using the inverse operations.
Signed-off-by: Joel Granados <joel.granados@kernel.org>
Rename converter parameter to indicate data flow direction: "lvalp" to
"u_ptr" indicating a user space parsed value pointer. "valp" to "k_ptr"
indicating a kernel storage value pointer. This facilitates the
identification of discrepancies between direction (copy to kernel or
copy to user space) and the modified variable. This is a preparation
commit for when the converter functions are exposed to the rest of the
kernel.
Signed-off-by: Joel Granados <joel.granados@kernel.org>
Replace the "write" integer parameter with SYSCTL_USER_TO_KERN() and
SYSCTL_KERN_TO_USER() that clearly indicate data flow direction in
sysctl operations.
"write" originates in proc_sysctl.c (proc_sys_{read,write}) and can take
one of two values: "0" or "1" when called from proc_sys_read and
proc_sys_write respectively. When write has a value of zero, data is
"written" to a user space buffer from a kernel variable (usually
ctl_table->data). Whereas when write has a value greater than zero, data
is "written" to an internal kernel variable from a user space buffer.
Remove this ambiguity by introducing macros that clearly indicate the
direction of the "write".
The write mode names in sysctl_writes_mode are left unchanged as these
directly relate to the sysctl_write_strict file in /proc/sys where the
word "write" unambiguously refers to writing to a file.

Move s390 sysctls (spin_retry and userprocess_debug) into their own
files under arch/s390. Create two new sysctl tables
(2390_{fault,spin}_sysctl_table) which will be initialized with
arch_initcall placing them after their original place in proc_root_init.
This is part of a greater effort to move ctl tables into their
respective subsystems which will reduce the merge conflicts in
kernel/sysctl.c.

Move ctl tables to two files:

perf_cpu_time_max_percent into kernel/events/core.c
- perf_event_max_{stack,context_per_stack} into
kernel/events/callchain.c
Make static variables and functions that are fully contained in core.c
and callchain.cand remove them from include/linux/perf_event.h.
Additionally six_hundred_forty_kb is moved to callchain.c.
Two new sysctl tables are added ({callchain,events_core}_sysctl_table)
with their respective sysctl registration functions.

When CONFIG_X86_32 is defined and CONFIG_UML is not defined,
vdso_enabled belongs to arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32-setup.c.
So, move it into its own file.
Before this patch, vdso_enabled was allowed to be set to
a value exceeding 1 on x86_32 architecture. After this patch is
applied, vdso_enabled is not permitted to set the value more than 1.
It does not matter, because according to the function load_vdso32(),
only vdso_enabled is set to 1, VDSO would be enabled. Other values
all mean "disabled". The same limitation could be seen in the
function vdso32_setup().
