[PATCH v9 11/41] KVM: guest_memfd: Ensure pages are not in use before conversion

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay <devnull+ackerleytng.google.com@kernel.org>]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

When converting memory to private in guest_memfd, it is necessary to ensure
that the pages are not currently being accessed by any other part of the
kernel or userspace to avoid any current user writing to guest private
memory.

guest_memfd checks for unexpected refcounts to determine whether a page is
still in use. The only expected refcounts after unmapping the range
requested for conversion are those that are held by guest_memfd itself.

Update the kvm_memory_attributes2 structure to include an error_offset
field. This allows KVM to report the exact offset where a conversion
failed to userspace. If the safety check fails, return -EAGAIN and copy
the error_offset back to userspace so that it can potentially retry the
operation or handle the failure gracefully.

Update documentation to document the error_offset field and the possible
-EAGAIN error.

+If this ioctl returns -EAGAIN, the offset of the page with unexpected
+refcounts will be returned in `error_offset`. This can occur if there
+are transient refcounts on the pages, taken by other parts of the
+kernel.
+
+Userspace is expected to figure out how to remove all known refcounts
+on the shared pages, such as refcounts taken by get_user_pages(), and
+try the ioctl again. A possible source of these long term refcounts is
+if the guest_memfd memory was pinned in IOMMU page tables.
