[PATCH v8 0/8] kvmppc: Driver to manage pages of secure guest

Hi,

A pseries guest can be run as a secure guest on Ultravisor-enabled
POWER platforms. On such platforms, this driver will be used to manage
the movement of guest pages between the normal memory managed by
hypervisor(HV) and secure memory managed by Ultravisor(UV).

Private ZONE_DEVICE memory equal to the amount of secure memory
available in the platform for running secure guests is created.
Whenever a page belonging to the guest becomes secure, a page from
this private device memory is used to represent and track that secure
page on the HV side. The movement of pages between normal and secure
memory is done via migrate_vma_pages(). The reverse movement is driven
via pagemap_ops.migrate_to_ram().

The page-in or page-out requests from UV will come to HV as hcalls and
HV will call back into UV via uvcalls to satisfy these page requests.

These patches are against hmm.git
(https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rdma/rdma.git/log/?h=hmm)

plus

Claudio Carvalho's base ultravisor enablement patches that are present
in Michael Ellerman's tree
(https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux.git/log/?h=topic/ppc-kvm)

These patches along with Claudio's above patches are required to
run secure pseries guests on KVM. This patchset is based on hmm.git
because hmm.git has migrate_vma cleanup and not-device memremap_pages
patchsets that are required by this patchset.

Changes in v8
=============
- s/kvmppc_devm/kvmppc_uvmem
- Carrying Suraj's patch that defines bit positions for different rmap
  functions from Paul's kvm-next branch. Added KVMPPC_RMAP_UVMEM_PFN
  to this patch.
- No need to use irqsave version of spinlock to protect pfn bitmap
- mmap_sem and srcu_lock reversal in page-in/page-out so that we
  have uniform locking semantics in page-in, page-out, fault and
  reset paths. This also matches with other usages of the same
  two locks in powerpc code.
- kvmppc_uvmem_free_memslot_pfns() needs kvm srcu read lock.
- Addressed all the review feedback from Christoph and Sukadev.
  - Dropped kvmppc_rmap_is_devm_pfn() and introduced kvmppc_rmap_type()
  - Bail out early if page-in request comes for an already paged-in page
  - kvmppc_uvmem_pfn_lock re-arrangement
  - Check for failure from gfn_to_memslot in kvmppc_h_svm_page_in
  - Consolidate migrate_vma setup and related code into two helpers
    kvmppc_svm_page_in/out.
  - Use NUMA_NO_NODE in memremap_pages() instead of -1
  - Removed externs in declarations
  - Ensure *rmap assignment gets cleared in the error case in
    kvmppc_uvmem_get_page()
- A few other code cleanups
