Fix uaccess kernel protection on ARMv5 and earlier

Hi,
This series fixes a problem with the ability for the user accessors to access kernel space in a very specific circumstance. I'm greatful to Tomas Paukrt for having the patience to track down the problem.
This only happens when the following conditions are met:
- ARMv5 or earlier CPU
- Software PAN is disabled
- Nested exceptions that want to use user accessors to touch kernel space (implying use of the set_fs() function.)
The result is that the domain register is not preserved across the nested exception, but instead is reset to prevent kernel accesses while we are inside a region that should be permitting them.
Further technical details can be found in patch 3.
Patch 1 consolidates the uaccess macros into a new include file. Patch 2 integrates the address limit save/reset/restore into this
file, moving it from entry-armv.S, since we need to integrate this with the domain register manipulations.
Patch 3 ensures that the domain register is always saved and restored
not only if we are using software PAN, but if we're using CPU domains for kernel memory protection.

PATCH 1/3 ARM: uaccess: consolidate uaccess asm to asm/uaccess-asm.h
Consolidate the user access assembly code to asm/uaccess-asm.h. This moves the csdb, check_uaccess, uaccess_mask_range_ptr, uaccess_enable, uaccess_disable, uaccess_save, uaccess_restore macros, and creates two new ones for exception entry and exit - uaccess_entry and uaccess_exit.
This makes the uaccess_save and uaccess_restore macros private to asm/uaccess-asm.h.

PATCH 3/3 ARM: uaccess: fix DACR mismatch with nested exceptions
In reply to Russell King - ARM Linux adminTomas Paukrt reports that his SAM9X60 based system (ARM926, ARMv5TJ) fails to fix up alignment faults, eventually resulting in a kernel oops.
The problem occurs when using CONFIG_CPU_USE_DOMAINS with commit e6978e4bf181 ("ARM: save and reset the address limit when entering an exception"). This is because the address limit is set back to TASK_SIZE on exception entry, and, although it is restored on exception exit, the domain register is not.
Hence, this sequence can occur:
interrupt
pt_regs->addr_limit = addr_limit // USER_DS
addr_limit = USER_DS
alignment exception
__probe_kernel_read()
old_fs = get_fs() // USER_DS
set_fs(KERNEL_DS)
addr_limit = KERNEL_DS
dacr.kernel = DOMAIN_MANAGER
interrupt
pt_regs->addr_limit = addr_limit // KERNEL_DS
addr_limit = USER_DS
alignment exception
__probe_kernel_read()
old_fs = get_fs() // USER_DS
set_fs(KERNEL_DS)
addr_limit = KERNEL_DS
dacr.kernel = DOMAIN_MANAGER
...
set_fs(old_fs)
addr_limit = USER_DS
dacr.kernel = DOMAIN_CLIENT
...
addr_limit = pt_regs->addr_limit // KERNEL_DS
interrupt returnsAt this point, addr_limit is correctly restored to KERNEL_DS for __probe_kernel_read() to continue execution, but dacr.kernel is not, it has been reset by the set_fs(old_fs) to DOMAIN_CLIENT.
This would not have happened prior to the mentioned commit, because addr_limit would remain KERNEL_DS, so get_fs() would have returned KERNEL_DS, and so would correctly nest.
This commit fixes the problem by also saving the DACR on exception entry if either CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN or CONFIG_CPU_USE_DOMAINS are enabled, and resetting the DACR appropriately on exception entry to match addr_limit and PAN settings.
