commit 2b31e8ed96b260ce2c22bd62ecbb9458399e3b62 upstream.
Up until now the assumption was that an alternative patching site would
have some instructions at the beginning and trailing single-byte NOPs
(0x90) padding. Therefore, the patching machinery would go and optimize
those single-byte NOPs into longer ones.
However, this assumption is broken on 32-bit when code like
hv_do_hypercall() in hyperv_init() would use the ratpoline speculation
killer CALL_NOSPEC. The 32-bit version of that macro would align certain
insns to 16 bytes, leading to the compiler issuing a one or more
single-byte NOPs, depending on the holes it needs to fill for alignment.
That would lead to the warning in optimize_nops() to fire:
------------[ cut here ]------------
Not a NOP at 0xc27fb598
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:211 optimize_nops.isra.13
due to that function verifying whether all of the following bytes really
are single-byte NOPs.
Therefore, carve out the NOP padding into a separate function and call
it for each NOP range beginning with a single-byte NOP.
