xen/x86: fix PV trap handling on secondary processors
The initial observation was that in PV mode under Xen 32-bit user space didn't work anymore. Attempts of system calls ended in #GP(0x402). All of the sudden the vector 0x80 handler was not in place anymore. As it turns out up to 5.13 redundant initialization did occur: Once from cpu_initialize_context() (through its VCPUOP_initialise hypercall) and a 2nd time while each CPU was brought fully up. This 2nd initialization is now gone, uncovering that the 1st one was flawed: Unlike for the set_trap_table hypercall, a full virtual IDT needs to be specified here; the "vector" fields of the individual entries are of no interest. With many (kernel) IDT entries still(?) (i.e. at that point at least) empty, the syscall vector 0x80 ended up in slot 0x20 of the virtual IDT, thus becoming the domain's handler for vector 0x20. Make xen_convert_trap_info() fit for either purpose, leveraging the fact that on the xen_copy_trap_info() path the table starts out zero-filled. This includes moving out the writing of the sentinel, which would also have lead to a buffer overrun in the xen_copy_trap_info() case if all (kernel) IDT entries were populated. Convert the writing of the sentinel to clearing of the entire table entry rather than just the address field. (I didn't bother trying to identify the commit which uncovered the issue in 5.14; the commit named below is the one which actually introduced the bad code.)
