To date, we have implemented two I/O usage models for persistent memory,
PMEM (a persistent "ram disk") and DAX (mmap persistent memory into
userspace). This series adds a third, DAX-GUP, that allows DAX mappings
to be the target of direct-i/o. It allows userspace to coordinate
DMA/RDMA from/to persistent memory.
The implementation leverages the ZONE_DEVICE mm-zone that went into
4.3-rc1 (also discussed at kernel summit) to flag pages that are owned
and dynamically mapped by a device driver. The pmem driver, after
mapping a persistent memory range into the system memmap via
devm_memremap_pages(), arranges for DAX to distinguish pfn-only versus
page-backed pmem-pfns via flags in the new pfn_t type.
The DAX code, upon seeing a PFN_DEV+PFN_MAP flagged pfn, flags the
resulting pte(s) inserted into the process page tables with a new
_PAGE_DEVMAP flag. Later, when get_user_pages() is walking ptes it keys
off _PAGE_DEVMAP to pin the device hosting the page range active.
Finally, get_page() and put_page() are modified to take references
against the device driver established page mapping.
Finally, this need for "struct page" for persistent memory requires
memory capacity to store the memmap array. Given the memmap array for a
large pool of persistent may exhaust available DRAM introduce a
mechanism to allocate the memmap from persistent memory. The new
"struct vmem_altmap *" parameter to devm_memremap_pages() enables
arch_add_memory() to use reserved pmem capacity rather than the page
allocator.
This patch (of 18):
The core has developed a need for a "pfn_t" type [1]. Move the existing
pfn_t in KVM to kvm_pfn_t [2].

ePAPR represents hardware threads as cpu node properties in device tree.
So with existing QEMU, hardware threads are simply exposed as vcpus with
one hardware thread.
The e6500 core shares TLBs between hardware threads. Without tlb write
conditional instruction, the Linux kernel uses per core mechanisms to
protect against duplicate TLB entries.
The guest is unable to detect real siblings threads, so it can't use the
TLB protection mechanism. An alternative solution is to use the hypervisor
to allocate different lpids to guest's vcpus that runs simultaneous on real
siblings threads. On systems with two threads per core this patch halves
the size of the lpid pool that the allocator sees and use two lpids per VM.
Use even numbers to speedup vcpu lpid computation with consecutive lpids
per VM: vm1 will use lpids 2 and 3, vm2 lpids 4 and 5, and so on.

KVM uses same WIM tlb attributes as the corresponding qemu pte.
For this we now search the linux pte for the requested page and
get these cache caching/coherency attributes from pte.

Commit 523f0e5421 ("KVM: PPC: E500:
Explicitly mark shadow maps invalid") began using E500_TLB_VALID
for guest TLB1 entries, and skipping invalidations if it's not set.
However, when E500_TLB_VALID was set for such entries, it was on a
fake local ref, and so the invalidations never happen. gtlb_privs
is documented as being only for guest TLB0, though we already violate
that with E500_TLB_BITMAP.
Now that we have MMU notifiers, and thus don't need to actually
retain a reference to the mapped pages, get rid of tlb_refs, and
use gtlb_privs for E500_TLB_VALID in TLB1.
Since we can have more than one host TLB entry for a given tlbe_ref,
be careful not to clear existing flags that are relevant to other
host TLB entries when preparing a new host TLB entry.

When a host mapping fault happens in a guest TLB1 entry today, we
map the translated guest entry into the host's TLB1.
This isn't particularly clever when the guest is mapped by normal 4k
pages, since these would be a lot better to put into TLB0 instead.
This patch adds the required logic to map 4k TLB1 shadow maps into
the host's TLB0.

Keep track of minimum and maximum address mapped by tlb1.
This helps in TLBMISS handling in KVM to quick check whether the address lies in mapped range.
If address does not lies in this range then no need to look in each tlb1 entry of tlb1 array.
