Mark Rutland f0c0d4b74d arm64: entry: unmask IRQ in el0_sp()
Currently, the EL0 SP alignment handler masks IRQs unnecessarily. It
does so due to historic code sharing of the EL0 SP and PC alignment
handlers, and branch predictor hardening applicable to the EL0 SP
handler.

We began masking IRQs in the EL0 SP alignment handler in commit:

  5dfc6ed277 ("arm64: entry: Apply BP hardening for high-priority synchronous exception")

... as this shared code with the EL0 PC alignment handler, and branch
predictor hardening made it necessary to disable IRQs for early parts of
the EL0 PC alignment handler. It was not necessary to mask IRQs during
EL0 SP alignment exceptions, but it was not considered harmful to do so.

This masking was carried forward into C code in commit:

  582f95835a ("arm64: entry: convert el0_sync to C")

... where the SP/PC cases were split into separate handlers, and the
masking duplicated.

Subsequently the EL0 PC alignment handler was refactored to perform
branch predictor hardening before unmasking IRQs, in commit:

  bfe298745a ("arm64: entry-common: don't touch daif before bp-hardening")

... but the redundant masking of IRQs was not removed from the EL0 SP
alignment handler.

Let's do so now, and make it interruptible as with most other
synchronous exception handlers.

README

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.
