Remove the hmm_mirror object and use the mmu_interval_notifier API instead for the range, and use the normal mmu_notifier API for the general invalidation callback. While here re-organize the pagefault path so the locking pattern is clear. nouveau is the only driver that uses a temporary range object and instead forwards nearly every invalidation range directly to the HW. While this is not how the mmu_interval_notifier was intended to be used, the overheads on the pagefaulting path are similar to the existing hmm_mirror version. Particularly since the interval tree will be small.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
