ARM: 9081/1: fix gcc-10 thumb2-kernel regression
commit dad7b9896a5dbac5da8275d5a6147c65c81fb5f2 upstream. When building the kernel wtih gcc-10 or higher using the CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE=y flag, the compiler picks a slightly different set of registers for the inline assembly in cpu_init() that subsequently results in a corrupt kernel stack as well as remaining in FIQ mode. If a banked register is used for the last argument, the wrong version of that register gets loaded into CPSR_c. When building in Arm mode, the arguments are passed as immediate values and the bug cannot happen. This got introduced when Daniel reworked the FIQ handling and was technically always broken, but happened to work with both clang and gcc before gcc-10 as long as they picked one of the lower registers. This is probably an indication that still very few people build the kernel in Thumb2 mode. Marek pointed out the problem on IRC, Arnd narrowed it down to this inline assembly and Russell pinpointed the exact bug. Change the constraints to force the final mode switch to use a non-banked register for the argument to ensure that the correct constant gets loaded. Another alternative would be to always use registers for the constant arguments to avoid the #ifdef that has now become more complex.
