dma-buf: add support for kernel cpu access
Big differences to other contenders in the field (like ion) is
that this also supports highmem, so we have to split up the cpu
access from the kernel side into a prepare and a kmap step.
Prepare is allowed to fail and should do everything required so that
the kmap calls can succeed (like swapin/backing storage allocation,
flushing, ...).
More in-depth explanations will follow in the follow-up documentation
patch.
Changes in v2:
- Clear up begin_cpu_access confusion noticed by Sumit Semwal.
- Don't automatically fallback from the _atomic variants to the
non-atomic variants. The _atomic callbacks are not allowed to
sleep, so we want exporters to make this decision explicit. The
function signatures are explicit, so simpler exporters can still
use the same function for both.
- Make the unmap functions optional. Simpler exporters with permanent
mappings don't need to do anything at unmap time.
Changes in v3:
- Adjust the WARN_ON checks for the new ->ops functions as suggested
by Rob Clark and Sumit Semwal.
- Rebased on top of latest dma-buf-next git.
Changes in v4:
- Fixup a missing - in a return -EINVAL; statement.
