Subject[PATCH v3] ubsan: Avoid unnecessary 128-bit shifts
If CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128, s_max is 128 bits, and variable
sign-extending shifts of such a double-word data type are a non-trivial
amount of code and complexity. Do a single-word sign-extension *before*
the cast to (s_max), greatly simplifying the object code.

Rasmus Villemoes suggested using sign_extend* from <linux/bitops.h>.

On s390 (and perhaps some other arches), gcc implements variable
128-bit shifts using an __ashrti3 helper function which the kernel
doesn't provide, causing a link error. In that case, this patch is
a prerequisite for enabling INT128 support. Andrey Ryabinin has gven
permission for any arch that needs it to cherry-pick it so they don't
have to wait for ubsan to be merged into Linus' tree.

We *could*, alternatively, implement __ashrti3, but that becomes dead as
soon as this patch is merged, so it seems like a waste of time and its
absence discourages people from adding inefficient code. Note that the
shifts in <math64.h> (unsigned, and by a compile-time constant amount)
are simpler and generated inline.

v3: Added sign_extend_long() to sign_extend{32,64} in <linux/bitops.h>.
Used sign_extend_long rather than hand-rolling sign extension.
Changed to more uniform if ... else if ... else ... structure.
v2: Eliminated redundant cast to (s_max).
Rewrote commit message without "is this the right thing to do?"
verbiage.
Incorporated ack from Andrey Ryabinin.
