When computing a linear address and segmentation is used, we need to know
the base address of the segment involved in the computation. In most of
the cases, the segment base address will be zero as in USER_DS/USER32_DS.
However, it may be possible that a user space program defines its own
segments via a local descriptor table. In such a case, the segment base
address may not be zero. Thus, the segment base address is needed to
calculate correctly the linear address.
If running in protected mode, the segment selector to be used when
computing a linear address is determined by either any of segment override
prefixes in the instruction or inferred from the registers involved in the
computation of the effective address; in that order. Also, there are cases
when the segment override prefixes shall be ignored (i.e., code segments
are always selected by the CS segment register; string instructions always
use the ES segment register when using rDI register as operand). In long
mode, segment registers are ignored, except for FS and GS. In these two
cases, base addresses are obtained from the respective MSRs.
For clarity, this process can be split into four steps (and an equal
number of functions): determine if segment prefixes overrides can be used;
parse the segment override prefixes, and use them if found; if not found
or cannot be used, use the default segment registers associated with the
operand registers. Once the segment register to use has been identified,
read its value to obtain the segment selector.
The method to obtain the segment selector depends on several factors. In
32-bit builds, segment selectors are saved into a pt_regs structure
when switching to kernel mode. The same is also true for virtual-8086
mode. In 64-bit builds, segmentation is mostly ignored, except when
running a program in 32-bit legacy mode. In this case, CS and SS can be
obtained from pt_regs. DS, ES, FS and GS can be read directly from
the respective segment registers.
In order to identify the segment registers, a new set of #defines is
introduced. It also includes two special identifiers. One of them
indicates when the default segment register associated with instruction
operands shall be used. Another one indicates that the contents of the
segment register shall be ignored; this identifier is used when in long
mode.

String instructions are special because, in protected mode, the linear
address is always obtained via the ES segment register in operands that
use the (E)DI register; the DS segment register in operands that use
the (E)SI register. Furthermore, segment override prefixes are ignored
when calculating a linear address involving the (E)DI register; segment
override prefixes can be used when calculating linear addresses involving
the (E)SI register.
It follows that linear addresses are calculated differently for the case of
string instructions. The purpose of this utility function is to identify
such instructions for callers to determine a linear address correctly.
Note that this function only identifies string instructions; it does not
determine what segment register to use in the address computation. That is
left to callers. A subsequent commmit introduces a function to determine
the segment register to use given the instruction, operands and
segment override prefixes.

The function get_reg_offset() returns the offset to the register the
argument specifies as indicated in an enumeration of type offset. Callers
of this function would need the definition of such enumeration. This is
not needed. Instead, add helper functions for this purpose. These functions
are useful in cases when, for instance, the caller needs to decide whether
the operand is a register or a memory location by looking at the rm part
of the ModRM byte. As of now, this is the only helper function that is
needed.

We are not in a critical failure path. The invalid register type is caused
when trying to decode invalid instruction bytes from a user-space program.
Thus, simply print an error message. To prevent this warning from being
abused from user space programs, use the rate-limited variant of pr_err().
along with a descriptive prefix.

Other kernel submodules can benefit from using the utility functions
defined in mpx.c to obtain the addresses and values of operands contained
in the general purpose registers. An instance of this is the emulation code
used for instructions protected by the Intel User-Mode Instruction
Prevention feature.
Thus, these functions are relocated to a new insn-eval.c file. The reason
to not relocate these utilities into insn.c is that the latter solely
analyses instructions given by a struct insn without any knowledge of the
meaning of the values of instruction operands. This new utility insn-
eval.c aims to be used to resolve userspace linear addresses based on
the contents of the instruction operands as well as the contents of pt_regs
structure.
These utilities come with a separate header. This is to avoid taking insn.c
out of sync from the instructions decoders under tools/obj and tools/perf.
This also avoids adding cumbersome #ifdef's for the #include'd files
required to decode instructions in a kernel context.
Functions are simply relocated. There are not functional or indentation
changes.
