Now that we have SYM_FUNC_ALIAS() and SYM_FUNC_ALIAS_WEAK(), use those
to simplify and more consistently define function aliases across
arch/arm64.
Aliases are now defined in terms of a canonical function name. For
position-independent functions I've made the __pi_<func> name the
canonical name, and defined other alises in terms of this.
The SYM_FUNC_{START,END}_PI(func) macros obscure the __pi_<func> name,
and make this hard to seatch for. The SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK_PI() macro
also obscures the fact that the __pi_<func> fymbol is global and the
<func> symbol is weak. For clarity, I have removed these macros and used
SYM_FUNC_{START,END}() directly with the __pi_<func> name.
For example:
SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK_PI(func)
... asm insns ...
SYM_FUNC_END_PI(func)
EXPORT_SYMBOL(func)
... becomes:
SYM_FUNC_START(__pi_func)
... asm insns ...
SYM_FUNC_END(__pi_func)
SYM_FUNC_ALIAS_WEAK(func, __pi_func)
EXPORT_SYMBOL(func)
For clarity, where there are multiple annotations such as
EXPORT_SYMBOL(), I've tried to keep annotations grouped by symbol. For
example, where a function has a name and an alias which are both
exported, this is organised as:
SYM_FUNC_START(func)
... asm insns ...
SYM_FUNC_END(func)
EXPORT_SYMBOL(func)
SYM_FUNC_ALIAS(alias, func)
EXPORT_SYMBOL(alias)
For consistency with the other string functions, I've defined strrchr as
a position-independent function, as it can safely be used as such even
though we have no users today.
As we no longer use SYM_FUNC_{START,END}_ALIAS(), our local copies are
removed. The common versions will be removed by a subsequent patch.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Although we implement our own assembly version of memchr(), it turns
out to be barely any better than what GCC can generate for the generic
C version (and would go wrong if the size_t argument were ever large
enough to be interpreted as negative). Unfortunately we can't import the
tuned implementation from the Arm optimized-routines library, since that
has some Advanced SIMD parts which are not really viable for general
kernel library code. What we can do, however, is pep things up with some
relatively straightforward word-at-a-time logic for larger calls.
Adding some timing to optimized-routines' memchr() test for a simple
benchmark, overall this version comes in around half as fast as the SIMD
code, but still nearly 4x faster than our existing implementation.

In an effort to clarify and simplify the annotation of assembly functions
in the kernel new macros have been introduced. These replace ENTRY and
ENDPROC and also add a new annotation for static functions which previously
had no ENTRY equivalent. Update the annotations in the library code to the
new macros.

For a while now it's been possible to use EXPORT_SYMBOL() in assembly
files, which allows us to place exports immediately after assembly
functions, as we do for C functions.
As a step towards removing arm64ksyms.c, let's move the string routine
exports to the assembly files the functions are defined in. Routines
which should only be exported for !KASAN builds are exported using the
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NOKASAN() helper.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

ARM64 has asm implementation of memchr(), memcmp(), str[r]chr(),
str[n]cmp(), str[n]len(). KASAN don't see memory accesses in asm code,
thus it can potentially miss many bugs.
Ifdef out __HAVE_ARCH_* defines of these functions when KASAN is enabled,
so the generic implementations from lib/string.c will be used.
We can't just remove the asm functions because efistub uses them. And we
can't have two non-weak functions either, so declare the asm functions as
weak.

For more control over which functions are called with the MMU off or
with the UEFI 1:1 mapping active, annotate some assembler routines as
position independent. This is done by introducing ENDPIPROC(), which
replaces the ENDPROC() declaration of those routines.

This patch introduces AArch64-specific memory functions (memcpy,
memmove, memchr, memset). These functions are not optimised for any CPU
implementation but can be used as a starting point once hardware is
available.
