[PATCH v1 0/5] iommufd: Iterate the cache invalidation array in the core

[Nicolin Chen <nicolinc@nvidia.com>]

The vIOMMU cache_invalidate() and the nested-HWPT cache_invalidate_user()
ops are each handed the full user invalidation array and must report, via
array->entry_num, how many of its entries they handled. That makes every
driver open-code the same array walk, with real downsides:

 - each driver carries its own loop and sub-array bookkeeping;
 - the ARM SMMUv3 driver allocates a buffer sized to the whole array just
   to iterate over it;
 - hand-rolling the loop left the ARM SMMUv3 driver with two long-standing
   bugs:
    1) on a conversion failure it counts commands that it converted but
       never issued, so user space skips invalidations that never reached
       the cmdq;
    2) it rejects a zero-length array, which the uAPI documents as a valid
       request that only probes the data type.

The walk is identical for every driver, so move it into the iommufd core.

The core now drives the iteration:

 - it invokes the op on a sub-array starting at the first not-yet-handled
   entry;
 - the op handles one chunk from the front of that sub-array and reports
   the count via array->entry_num;
 - the core advances and re-invokes until the whole array is consumed or
   the op returns an error.

A driver then only has to handle one bounded chunk per call, e.g. the ARM
SMMUv3 op copies a single cmdq batch into a fixed on-stack buffer and drops
its whole-array allocation. An op still handling the entire array in one
call keeps working, so each driver converts independently.

These are long-standing corner cases, so this targets for-next, not for-rc.
