[PATCH v3 3/4] x86/signal/64: Re-add support for SS in the 64-bit signal context

[Andy Lutomirski]

This is a second attempt to make the improvements from c6f2062935c8
("x86/signal/64: Fix SS handling for signals delivered to 64-bit
programs"), which was reverted by 51adbfbba5c6 ("x86/signal/64: Add
support for SS in the 64-bit signal context").

This adds two new uc_flags flags.  UC_SIGCONTEXT_SS will be set for
all 64-bit signals (including x32).  It indicates that the saved SS
field is valid and that the kernel supports the new behavior.

The goal is to fix a problems with signal handling in 64-bit tasks:
SS wasn't saved in the 64-bit signal context, making it awkward to
determine what SS was at the time of signal delivery and making it
impossible to return to a non-flat SS (as calling sigreturn clobbers
SS).

This also made it extremely difficult for 64-bit tasks to return to
fully-defined 16-bit contexts, because only the kernel can easily do
espfix64, but sigreturn was unable to set a non-flag SS:ESP.
(DOSEMU has a monstrous hack to partially work around this
limitation.)

If we could go back in time, the correct fix would be to make 64-bit
signals work just like 32-bit signals with respect to SS: save it
in signal context, reset it when delivering a signal, and restore
it in sigreturn.

Unfortunately, doing that (as I tried originally) breaks DOSEMU:
DOSEMU wouldn't reset the signal context's SS when clearing the LDT
and changing the saved CS to 64-bit mode, since it predates the SS
context field existing in the first place.

This patch is a bit more complicated, and it tries to balance a
bunch of goals.  It makes most cases of changing ucontext->ss during
signal handling work as expected.

I do this by special-casing the interesting case.  On sigreturn,
ucontext->ss will be honored by default, unless the ucontext was
created from scratch by an old program and had a 64-bit CS
(unfortunately, CRIU can do this) or was the result of changing a
32-bit signal context to 64-bit without resetting SS (as DOSEMU
does).

For the benefit of new 64-bit software that uses segmentation (new
versions of DOSEMU might), the new behavior can be detected with a
new ucontext flag UC_SIGCONTEXT_SS.

To avoid compilation issues, __pad0 is left as an alias for ss in
ucontext.

The nitty-gritty details are documented in the header file.

This patch also re-enables the sigreturn_64 and ldt_gdt_64 selftests,
as the kernel change allows both of them to pass.
