    arm64: introduce an order for exceptions · 65be7a1b
    James Morse authored
    Currently SError is always masked in the kernel. To support RAS exceptions
    using SError on hardware with the v8.2 RAS Extensions we need to unmask
    SError as much as possible.
    
    Let's define an order for masking and unmasking exceptions. 'dai' is
    memorable and effectively what we have today.
    
    Disabling debug exceptions should cause all other exceptions to be masked.
    Masking SError should mask irq, but not disable debug exceptions.
    Masking irqs has no side effects for other flags. Keeping to this order
    makes it easier for entry.S to know which exceptions should be unmasked.
    
    FIQ is never expected, but we mask it when we mask debug exceptions, and
    unmask it at all other times.
    
    Given masking debug exceptions masks everything, we don't need macros
    to save/restore that bit independently. Remove them and switch the last
    caller over to use the daif calls.
