Arm CCA Realms implement set_memory_decrypted() only for addresses in the
kernel linear map; vmalloc()/vmap() addresses are rejected. netvsc
allocates its large send and receive buffers with vzalloc() and passes
those addresses to vmbus_establish_gpadl(), which calls
set_memory_decrypted(), causing GPADL establishment to fail in a Realm.
This series allocates shared buffers as a list of chunks, each physically
contiguous, decrypts each chunk through its direct-map address, and
combines them into a virtually contiguous mapping with vmap(). Private
buffers continue to use vzalloc().
Changes since v1 [1]:
Patch 1:
- Add HV_GPADL_BUFFER_DECRYPTED to enum hv_gpadl_type to indicate a
buffer that has already been decrypted.
Patch 2:
- Rename netvsc_{alloc,free}_buf_pages() -> vmbus_{alloc,free}_buffer()
and move them to channel.c.
- Remove struct netvsc_buf_chunk and replace with page folio in
compound pages.
- vmbus_alloc_buffer():
- use vzalloc() for non-host-visible buffers and remove the
encryption decision out of netvsc.
- min_t() -> min().
- zero the memory after allocation.
- specify @size "will be rounded up to PAGE_SIZE" in the docstring.
Changes since v2 [2]:
Patch 2:
- Split patch into two patches, separating new helper functions in
VMBus from the netvsc driver changes.
- Change `nr_pages`, `remaining`, and `page_idx` to unsigned long to
avoid casting.
- Move `order` initialization to the top of vmbus_alloc_buffer(),
removing one min() call.
- Change `order` to a signed int to avoid needing min_t().
- Restructure loop in vmbus_alloc_buffer() to avoid nested loops and
simplify logic.
- Small comment changes.

Add a new vmbus_establish_gpadl_caller_decrypted() for callers that want to
decrypt their own buffers. Add a new hv_gpadl_type,
HV_GPADL_BUFFER_DECRYPTED, to communicate the decryption status of the
buffer.
No functional change for existing callers.

On CoCo VMs without confidential VMBus, the netvsc send and receive buffers
must be made host-visible by decrypting them. These buffers are vmalloc'ed,
but set_memory_decrypted()/encrypted() do not work on vmalloc'ed memory.
This use case is (so far) unique to netvsc, so solve it locally rather than
changing the set_memory() or allocation APIs.
Add vmbus_alloc_buffer()/vmbus_free_buffer() to the VMBus core. When the
guest's isolation model requires it, allocate the buffer as a list of
physically-contiguous chunks via alloc_pages_node(), starting at
MAX_PAGE_ORDER and falling back to smaller orders so the allocation still
succeeds under memory fragmentation. Each chunk is decrypted in place via
set_memory_decrypted() on its direct-map address, and the chunks are then
stitched into a single virtually-contiguous range with vmap(). Buffers that
do not need decryption keep using vzalloc().
To free the buffer, vmbus_free_buffer() calls vunmap() on the range then
re-encrypts and frees each chunk individually; any chunk that fails
re-encryption is leaked to prevent accidentally freeing decrypted memory.
This approach minimizes scattering of decrypted 4 KiB pages through the
kernel direct map and the resulting shattering of large page mappings.

On CoCo VMs without confidential VMBus, the netvsc send and receive buffers

but set_memory_decrypted()/encrypted() do not work on vmalloc'ed memory.
This use case is (so far) unique to netvsc, so solve it locally rather than
changing the set_memory() or allocation APIs.
Use vmbus_alloc_buffer() to allocate the send and receive buffers, which
will make them host-visible. Store the list of memory chunks in the
netvsc_device struct so they can be individually freed later. Use
vmbus_establish_gpadl_caller_decrypted() so there is no attempt to decrypt
the virtual address.
Appropriately free the buffers with vmbus_free_buffer(). Because vunmap()
and set_memory_encrypted() must run in process context, replace the
rcu_head/call_rcu() pair used to defer free_netvsc_device() with
rcu_work/queue_rcu_work(). This also fixes a small race condition where the
buffers may be accessed while being re-encrypted by moving the
re-encryption after the RCU grace period.

Nit: Subject: prefix should be "Drivers: hv: vmbus:" for historical consistency.
If there are no other changes, Wei Liu can probably fix this when taking the
patch.

Nit on the patch Subject: I'd quibble a bit about calling these "GPADL
buffers". The netvsc driver calls them send/receive buffers. A GPADL is the
mechanism by which the Hyper-V host is told where they live in the guest
physical address space. I think a more precise Subject would be:
hv_netvsc: Allocate send/receive buffers using vmbus_alloc_buffer()
Your commit description describes them correctly.
