MIPS: Use read-write output operand in __write_64bit_c0_split()
Commit c22c8043 ("MIPS: Fix input modify in __write_64bit_c0_split()") modified __write_64bit_c0_split() constraints such that we have both an input & an output which we hope to assign to the same registers, and modify the output rather than incorrectly clobbering an input. The way in which we use both an output & an input parameter with the input constrained to share the output registers is a little convoluted & also problematic for clang, which complains if the input & output values have different widths. For example: In file included from kernel/fork.c:98: ./arch/mips/include/asm/mmu_context.h:149:19: error: unsupported inline asm: input with type 'unsigned long' matching output with type 'unsigned long long' write_c0_entryhi(cpu_asid(cpu, next)); ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ./arch/mips/include/asm/mmu_context.h:93:2: note: expanded from macro 'cpu_asid' (cpu_context((cpu), (mm)) & cpu_asid_mask(&cpu_data[cpu])) ^ ./arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h:1617:65: note: expanded from macro 'write_c0_entryhi' #define write_c0_entryhi(val) __write_ulong_c0_register($10, 0, val) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~ ./arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h:1430:39: note: expanded from macro '__write_ulong_c0_register' __write_64bit_c0_register(reg, sel, val); \ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~ ./arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h:1400:41: note: expanded from macro '__write_64bit_c0_register' __write_64bit_c0_split(register, sel, value); \ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~ ./arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h:1498:13: note: expanded from macro '__write_64bit_c0_split' : "r,0" (val)); \ ^~~ We can both fix this build failure & simplify the code somewhat by assigning the __tmp variable with the input value in C prior to our inline assembly, and then using a single read-write output operand (ie. a constraint beginning with +) to provide this value to our assembly.
