sparc64: Fix userspace FPU register corruptions.
If we have a series of events from userpsace, with %fprs=FPRS_FEF,
like follows:
ETRAP
ETRAP
VIS_ENTRY(fprs=0x4)
VIS_EXIT
RTRAP (kernel FPU restore with fpu_saved=0x4)
RTRAP
We will not restore the user registers that were clobbered by the FPU
using kernel code in the inner-most trap.
Traps allocate FPU save slots in the thread struct, and FPU using
sequences save the "dirty" FPU registers only.
This works at the initial trap level because all of the registers
get recorded into the top-level FPU save area, and we'll return
to userspace with the FPU disabled so that any FPU use by the user
will take an FPU disabled trap wherein we'll load the registers
back up properly.
But this is not how trap returns from kernel to kernel operate.
The simplest fix for this bug is to always save all FPU register state
for anything other than the top-most FPU save area.
Getting rid of the optimized inner-slot FPU saving code ends up
making VISEntryHalf degenerate into plain VISEntry.
Longer term we need to do something smarter to reinstate the partial
save optimizations. Perhaps the fundament error is having trap entry
and exit allocate FPU save slots and restore register state. Instead,
the VISEntry et al. calls should be doing that work.
This bug is about two decades old.
