[PATCH v2 00/16] mm: expand mmap_prepare functionality and usage

["Lorenzo Stoakes (Oracle)" <ljs@kernel.org>]

This series expands the mmap_prepare functionality, which is intended to
replace the deprecated f_op->mmap hook which has been the source of bugs
and security issues for some time.

This series starts with some cleanup of existing mmap_prepare logic, then
adds documentation for the mmap_prepare call to make it easier for
filesystem and driver writers to understand how it works.

It then importantly adds a vm_ops->mapped hook, a key feature that was
missing from mmap_prepare previously - this is invoked when a driver which
specifies mmap_prepare has successfully been mapped but not merged with
another VMA.

mmap_prepare is invoked prior to a merge being attempted, so you cannot
manipulate state such as reference counts as if it were a new mapping.

The vm_ops->mapped hook allows a driver to perform tasks required at this
stage, and provides symmetry against subsequent vm_ops->open,close calls.

The series uses this to correct the afs implementation which wrongly
manipulated reference count at mmap_prepare time.

It then adds an mmap_prepare equivalent of vm_iomap_memory() -
mmap_action_simple_ioremap(), then uses this to update a number of drivers.

It then splits out the mmap_prepare compatibility layer (which allows for
invocation of mmap_prepare hooks in an mmap() hook) in such a way as to
allow for more incremental implementation of mmap_prepare hooks.

It then uses this to extend mmap_prepare usage in drivers.

Finally it adds an mmap_prepare equivalent of vm_map_pages(), which lays
the foundation for future work which will extend mmap_prepare to DMA
coherent mappings.

v2:
* Rebased on
  https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1773665966.git.ljs@kernel.org/ to make
  Andrew's life easier :)
* Folded all interim fixes into series (thanks Randy for many doc fixes!))
* As per Suren, removed a comment about allocations too small to fail.
* As per Randy, fixed up typo in documentation for vm_area_desc.
* Fixed mmap_action_prepare() not returning if invalid action->type
  specified, as updated from Andrew's interim fix (thanks!) and also
  reported by kernel test bot.
* Updated mmap_action_prepare() and specific prepare functions to only
  pass vm_area_desc parameter as per Suren.
* Fixed up whitespace as per Suren.
* Updated vm_op->open comment in vm_operations_struct to reference forking
  as per Suren.
* Added a commit to check that input range is within VMA on remap as per
  Suren (this also covers I/O remap and all other cases already asserted).
* Updated AFS to not incorrectly reference count on mmap prepare as per
  Usama.
* Also updated various static AFS functions to be consistent with each
  other.
* Updated AFS commit message to reflect mmap_prepare being before any VMA
  merging as per Suren.
* Updated __compat_vma_mapped() to check for NULL vm_ops as per Usama.
* Updated __compat_vma_mapped() to not reference an unmapped VMA's fields
  as per Usama.
* Updated __vma_check_mmap_hook() to check for NULL vm_ops as per Usama.
* Dropped comment about preferring mmap_prepare as seems overly confusing,
  as per Suren.
* Updated the mmap lock assert in unmap_vma_locked() to a write lock assert
  as per Suren.
* Copied vm_ops->open comment over to VMA tests in appropriate patch as per
  Suren.
* Updated mmap_prepare documentation to reflect the fact that no resources
  should be allocated upon mmap_prepare.
* Updated mmap_prepare documentation to reference the vm_ops->mapped
  callback.
* Fixed stray markdown '## How to use' in documentation.
* Fixed bug reported by kernel test bot re: overlooked
  vma_desc_test_flags() -> vma_desc_test() in MTD driver for nommu.
