A first step in vcpu->requests encapsulation. Additionally, we now
use READ_ONCE() when accessing vcpu->requests, which ensures we
always load vcpu->requests when it's accessed. This is important as
other threads can change it any time. Also, READ_ONCE() documents
that vcpu->requests is used with other threads, likely requiring
memory barriers, which it does.

Marc Zyngier suggested that we define the arch specific VCPU request
base, rather than requiring each arch to remember to start from 8.
That suggestion, along with Radim Krcmar's recent VCPU request flag
addition, snowballed into defining something of an arch VCPU request
defining API.
No functional change.

The only user of this facility is ptp_clock, which does not implement any of
those functions.
Remove them to prevent accidental users. Especially the interval timer
interfaces are now more or less impossible to implement because the
necessary infrastructure has been confined to the core code. Aside of that
it's really complex to make these callbacks implemented according to spec
as the alarm timer implementation demonstrates. If at all then a nanosleep
callback might be a reasonable extension. For now keep just what ptp_clock
needs.

If an interrupt is marked NOAUTOEN then request_irq() installs the action,
but does not enable the interrupt via startup_irq(). The interrupt is
enabled via enable_irq() later from the driver. enable_irq() calls
irq_enable().
That means that for interrupts which have a irq_startup() callback this
callback is never invoked. Neither is irq_domain_activate_irq() invoked for
such interrupts.
If an interrupt depends on irq_startup() or irq_domain_activate_irq() then
the enable via irq_enable() is not enough.
Add a status flag IRQD_IRQ_STARTED_UP and use this to select the proper
mechanism in enable_irq(). Use the flag also to avoid pointless calls into
the low level functions.

Add a new minimalistic subsystem that handles multiplexer controllers.
When multiplexers are used in various places in the kernel, and the
same multiplexer controller can be used for several independent things,
there should be one place to implement support for said multiplexer
controller.
A single multiplexer controller can also be used to control several
parallel multiplexers, that are in turn used by different subsystems
in the kernel, leading to a need to coordinate multiplexer accesses.
The multiplexer subsystem handles this coordination.

Historically the N_TTY driver could never fail but this has become broken over
time. Rather than trying to rewrite half the ldisc layer to fix the breakage
introduce a second level of fallback with an N_NULL ldisc which cannot fail,
and thus restore the guarantees required by the ldisc layer.
We still try and fail to N_TTY first. It's much more useful to find yourself
back in your old ldisc (first attempt) or in N_TTY (second attempt), and while
I'm not aware of any code out there that makes those assumptions it's good to

the reason is that the managed memory is too low (only 110MB) while the
rest of the the 50GB is still waiting for the deferred intialization to
be done. update_defer_init estimates the initial memoty to initialize
to 2GB at least but it doesn't consider any memory allocated in that
range. In this particular case we've had
Reserving 4096MB of memory at 128MB for crashkernel (System RAM: 51200MB)
so the low 2GB is mostly depleted.
Fix this by considering memblock allocations in the initial static
initialization estimation. Move the max_initialise to
reset_deferred_meminit and implement a simple memblock_reserved_memory
helper which iterates all reserved blocks and sums the size of all that
start below the given address. The cumulative size is than added on top
of the initial estimation. This is still not ideal because
reset_deferred_meminit doesn't consider holes and so reservation might
be above the initial estimation whihch we ignore but let's make the
logic simpler until we really need to handle more complicated cases.

KVM uses get_user_pages() to resolve its stage2 faults. KVM sets the
FOLL_HWPOISON flag causing faultin_page() to return -EHWPOISON when it
finds a VM_FAULT_HWPOISON. KVM handles these hwpoison pages as a
special case. (check_user_page_hwpoison())
When huge pages are involved, this doesn't work so well.
get_user_pages() calls follow_hugetlb_page(), which stops early if it
receives VM_FAULT_HWPOISON from hugetlb_fault(), eventually returning
-EFAULT to the caller. The step to map this to -EHWPOISON based on the
FOLL_ flags is missing. The hwpoison special case is skipped, and
-EFAULT is returned to user-space, causing Qemu or kvmtool to exit.
Instead, move this VM_FAULT_ to errno mapping code into a header file
and use it from faultin_page() and follow_hugetlb_page().
With this, KVM works as expected.
This isn't a problem for arm64 today as we haven't enabled
MEMORY_FAILURE, but I can't see any reason this doesn't happen on x86
too, so I think this should be a fix. This doesn't apply earlier than
stable's v4.11.1 due to all sorts of cleanup.

Now all materials are ready, let's allow the direct in-kernel
read/write, i.e. a kernel-space buffer is passed for read or write,
instead of the normal user-space buffer. This feature is used by OSS
layer and UAC1 driver, for example.
The __snd_pcm_lib_xfer() takes in_kernel argument that indicates the
in-kernel buffer copy. When this flag is set, another transfer code
is used. It's either via copy_kernel PCM ops or the normal memcpy(),
depending on the driver setup.
As external API, snd_pcm_kernel_read(), *_write() and other variants
are provided.
That's all. This support is really simple because of the code

Now that all users of old copy and silence ops have been converted to

Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
For supporting the explicit in-kernel copy of PCM buffer data, and
also for further code refactoring, three new PCM ops, copy_user,
copy_kernel and fill_silence, are introduced. The old copy and
silence ops will be deprecated and removed later once when all callers
are converted.
The copy_kernel ops is the new one, and it's supposed to transfer the
PCM data from the given kernel buffer to the hardware ring-buffer (or
vice-versa depending on the stream direction), while the copy_user ops
is equivalent with the former copy ops, to transfer the data from the
user-space buffer.
The major difference of the new copy_* and fill_silence ops from the
previous ops is that the new ops take bytes instead of frames for size
and position arguments. It has two merits: first, it allows the
callback implementation often simpler (just call directly memcpy() &
co), and second, it may unify the implementations of both interleaved
and non-interleaved cases, as we'll see in the later patch.
As of this stage, copy_kernel ops isn't referred yet, but only
copy_user is used.
