From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

Most architectures do not need a custom implementation, and in most
cases the generic implementation is preferred, so change the polariy
on these Kconfig symbols to require architectures to select them when
they provide their own version.

The new name is CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_{STRNCPY_FROM,STRNLEN}_USER.

The remaining architectures at the moment are: ia64, mips, parisc,
s390, um and xtensa. We should probably convert these as well, but
I was not sure how far to take this series.

I'm not sure it makes sense to convert um, the implementation uses
strncpy(), and that should use the libc implementation, which is tuned
for the actual hardware that the binary is running on, so performance
wise that might be better.

OTOH, maybe this is all in the noise given the huge syscall overhead in
um, so maybe unifying it would make more sense.

Right, makes sense. I suppose if we end up converting mips and s390,
we should just do arch/um and the others as well for consistency, even
if that adds some overhead.

Feel free to add the s390 patch below on top of your series. However
one question: the strncpy_from_user() prototype now comes everywhere
without the __must_check attribute. Is there any reason for that?

At least for s390 I want to keep that.

From 03ad679909af58e1dc6864f47ce67210f0534c39 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Heiko Carstens <hca@linux.ibm.com>
Date: Thu, 22 Jul 2021 21:48:18 +0200
Subject: [PATCH] s390: use generic strncpy/strnlen from_user

The s390 variant of strncpy_from_user() is slightly faster than the
generic variant, however convert to the generic variant now to follow
most if not all other architectures.

Converting to the generic variant was already considered a couple of
years ago. See commit f5c8b9601036 ("s390/uaccess: use sane length for
__strncpy_from_user()").

Makes sense, I'll add a patch for that as well.
