0712dc7e73 cxl: Fix issues when unmapping contexts
An issue was introduced with "cxl: Unmap MMIO regions when detaching a
context" (b123429e6a) where closing a
context normally could also unmap the problem state area of other
contexts currently using the AFU.

It was also discovered that after a context's MMIO space had been
unmapped it would read 0s when accessing it, whereas the expected
behaviour was for the access to fail altogether.

In order to address these issues, this patch does two things:

- Forced mmap unmapping is only done when we are forcefully detaching
  all contexts, and not in the normal detach path. Since the normal
  context close path is tied to the file release any mmaps must have
  already been released so we don't need to worry in that case.

- The mmap path now uses a vm_operations_struct with a fault handler.
  The fault handler ensures that the context is in started state,
  otherwise it fails the access attempt with a SIGBUS.

b123429e6a cxl: Unmap MMIO regions when detaching a context
If we need to force detach a context (e.g. due to EEH or simply force
unbinding the driver) we should prevent the userspace contexts from
being able to access the Problem State Area MMIO region further, which
they may have mapped with mmap().

This patch unmaps any mapped MMIO regions when detaching a userspace
context.

d53ba6b3bb cxl: Fix afu_read() not doing finish_wait() on signal or non-blocking
If afu_read() returned due to a signal or the AFU file descriptor being
opened non-blocking it would not call finish_wait() before returning,
which could lead to a crash later when something else wakes up the wait
queue.

This patch restructures the wait logic to ensure that the cleanup is
done correctly.

f204e0b8ce cxl: Driver code for powernv PCIe based cards for userspace access
This is the core of the cxl driver.

It adds support for using cxl cards in the powernv environment only (ie POWER8
bare metal). It allows access to cxl accelerators by userspace using the
/dev/cxl/afuM.N char devices.

The kernel driver has no knowledge of the function implemented by the
accelerator. It provides services to userspace via the /dev/cxl/afuM.N
devices. When a program opens this device and runs the start work IOCTL, the
accelerator will have coherent access to that processes memory using the same
virtual addresses. That process may mmap the device to access any MMIO space
the accelerator provides.  Also, reads on the device will allow interrupts to
be received. These services are further documented in a later patch in
Documentation/powerpc/cxl.txt.

Documentation of the cxl hardware architecture and userspace API is provided in
subsequent patches.
