[RESEND PATCH] x86/asm: Remove the __iomem annotation of movdir64b()'s dst argument

From: Kai Huang

Commit e56d28df2f66 ("x86/virt/tdx: Configure global KeyID on all
packages") causes below sparse check warning:

arch/x86/virt/vmx/tdx/tdx.c:683:27: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
arch/x86/virt/vmx/tdx/tdx.c:683:27: expected void [noderef] __iomem *dst
arch/x86/virt/vmx/tdx/tdx.c:683:27: got void *

The reason is TDX must use the MOVDIR64B instruction to convert TDX
private memory (which is normal RAM but not MMIO) back to normal. The
TDX code uses existing movdir64b() helper to do that, but the first
argument @dst of movdir64b() is annotated with __iomem.

When movdir64b() was firstly introduced in commit 0888e1030d3e
("x86/asm: Carve out a generic movdir64b() helper for general usage"),
it didn't have the __iomem annotation. But this commit also introduced
the same "incorrect type" sparse warning because the iosubmit_cmds512(),
which was the solo caller of movdir64b(), has the __iomem annotation.

This was later fixed by commit 6ae58d871319 ("x86/asm: Annotate
movdir64b()'s dst argument with __iomem"). That fix was reasonable
because until TDX code the movdir64b() was only used to move data to
MMIO location, as described by the commit message:

... The current usages send a 64-bytes command descriptor to an MMIO
location (portal) on a device for consumption. When future usages for
the MOVDIR64B instruction warrant a separate variant of a memory to
memory operation, the argument annotation can be revisited.

Now TDX code uses MOVDIR64B to move data to normal memory so it's time
to revisit.

The SDM says the destination of MOVDIR64B is "memory location specified
in a general register", thus it's more reasonable that movdir64b() does
not have the __iomem annotation on the @dst.

Remove the __iomem annotation from the @dst argument of movdir64b() to
fix the sparse warning in TDX code. Similar to memset_io(), introduce a
new movdir64b_io() to cover the case where the destination is an MMIO
location, and change the solo caller iosubmit_cmds512() to use the new
movdir64b_io().

In movdir64b_io() explicitly use __force in the type casting otherwise
there will be below sparse warning:

warning: cast removes address space '__iomem' of expression
