Detect if vector misaligned accesses are faster or slower than
equivalent vector byte accesses. This is useful for usermode to know
whether vector byte accesses or vector misaligned accesses have a better
bandwidth for operations like memcpy.

 - Add Kconfig options

 - Add preempt_disable/enable

Maybe I missed the call site in another patch, but are you calling
check_vector_unaligned_access_emulated() anywhere in the hotplug path?
Without this, for a CPU that wasn't present at boot, it seems like the
per-cpu variable would be set to its initialized value of UNSUPPORTED,
and then you'd bail early out of check_vector_unaligned_access() at
the "!= SLOW" conditional.

IMO it would be better if the values truly meant what they said. So we
initialize it to UNKNOWN, unconditionally change to UNSUPPORTED if we
discover it's emulated or there is no vector support, and only set to
SLOW or FAST as a result of probe measurement or Kconfig override.
It's the "SLOW means slow or don't know" from the previous patch
that's bugging me. This creates downstream effects like this "!= SLOW"
conditional (by which you really mean "!= UNKNOWN") that are
challenging to reason about and maintain.

I have this vague sense that you did this in response to feedback in
an earlier series, but I can't find it now.

Yes there has been a lot of back and forth on this. Here is the original
discussion: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/ZmN8gER4RnyoyQT4@ghost/. I
originally agreed with Conor that SLOW would be reasonable because it
prevented programs from receiving an UNKNOWN which they may be unsure
how to handle. The idea here is that programs that rely on misaligned
access speed should avoid using misaligned accesses if the speed is
UNKNOWN. Reporting SLOW instead of UNKNOWN takes the decision out of the
hands of the program, so they don't have to worry about UNKNOWN. However
over the course of this series I too have been increasingly unconvinced
by this reasoning. It doesn't seem like the kernel's place to make this
decision for userspace and should just provide the correct information.

The more concrete issue is with CPU hotplug. When a CPU is hotplugged
into a new CPU index, it will default to UNSUPPORTED. When the CPU
enters check_vector_unaligned_access(), its speed will not be SLOW so
the code assumes it has already been probed -- even though it hasn't.
The default should be UNKNOWN (instead of UNSUPPORTED) and this code
should check for UNKNOWN to determine if the cpu has already been
probed.

We can test this by booting Linux with the argument "maxcpus=1" and
after it boots run:

# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
[   40.481153] cpu1: Ratio of byte access time to unaligned word access is 9.05, unaligned accesses are fast
#

Only the scalar misaligned access speed checker ran. I also verified
that check_vector_unaligned_access() sees that the speed is UNKNOWN
which is not SLOW so exits.
