[PATCH v2] arm64: kernel: restrict /dev/mem read() calls to linear region

[ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org (Ard Biesheuvel)]

When running lscpu on an AArch64 system that has SMBIOS version 2.0
tables, it will segfault in the following way:

  Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffff8000bfff0000
  pgd = ffff8000f9615000
  [ffff8000bfff0000] *pgd=0000000000000000
  Internal error: Oops: 96000007 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
  Modules linked in:
  CPU: 0 PID: 1284 Comm: lscpu Not tainted 4.11.0-rc3+ #103
  Hardware name: QEMU QEMU Virtual Machine, BIOS 0.0.0 02/06/2015
  task: ffff8000fa78e800 task.stack: ffff8000f9780000
  PC is at __arch_copy_to_user+0x90/0x220
  LR is at read_mem+0xcc/0x140

This is caused by the fact that lspci issues a read() on /dev/mem at the
offset where it expects to find the SMBIOS structure array. However, this
region is classified as EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICE_DATA (as per the UEFI spec),
and so it is omitted from the linear mapping.

So let's restrict /dev/mem read/write access to those areas that are
covered by the linear region.

v2: check whether the entire region is covered by the same memblock that has
    the MEMBLOCK_NOMAP attribute cleared
