[PATCH v2 1/4] mm: handle poisoning of pfn without struct pages

From: Ankit Agrawal <ankita@nvidia.com>

The kernel MM currently does not handle ECC errors / poison on a memory
region that is not backed by struct pages. If a memory region is mapped
using remap_pfn_range(), but not added to the kernel, MM will not have
associated struct pages. Add a new mechanism to handle memory failure
on such memory.

Make kernel MM expose a function to allow modules managing the device
memory to register a failure function and the physical address space
associated with the device memory. MM maintains this information as
interval tree. The registered memory failure function is used by MM to
notify the kernel module managing the PFN, so that the module may take
any required action. The module for example may use the information
to track the poisoned pages.

In this implementation, kernel MM follows the following sequence similar
(mostly) to the memory_failure() handler for struct page backed memory:
1. memory_failure() is triggered on reception of a poison error. An
absence of struct page is detected and consequently memory_failure_pfn()
is executed.
2. memory_failure_pfn() call the newly introduced failure handler exposed
by the module managing the poisoned memory to notify it of the problematic
PFN.
3. memory_failure_pfn() unmaps the stage-2 mapping to the PFN.
4. memory_failure_pfn() collects the processes mapped to the PFN.
5. memory_failure_pfn() sends SIGBUS (BUS_MCEERR_AO) to all the processes
mapping the faulty PFN using kill_procs().
6. An access to the faulty PFN by an operation in VM at a later point
is trapped and user_mem_abort() is called.
7. The vma ops fault function gets called due to the absence of Stage-2
mapping. It is expected to return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON on the PFN.
8. __gfn_to_pfn_memslot() then returns KVM_PFN_ERR_HWPOISON, which cause
the poison with SIGBUS (BUS_MCEERR_AR) to be sent to the QEMU process
through kvm_send_hwpoison_signal().
