Future releases of fimrware will enforce a requirement that DTL buffers
do not cross a 4k boundary. Commit
127493d5dc satisfies this requirement for
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y kernels, but if !CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING
&& CONFIG_DTL=y, the current code will fail at dtl registration time.
Fix this by making the kmem cache from
127493d5dc visible outside of setup.c and
using the same cache in both dtl.c and setup.c. This requires a bit of
reorganization to ensure ordering of the kmem cache and buffer
allocations.
Note: Since firmware now limits the size of the buffer, I made
dtl_buf_entries read-only in debugfs.
Tested with upcoming firmware with the 4 combinations of
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING and CONFIG_DTL.
