This series changes the vfio and its sub drivers to use GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT for userspace persistent allocations. The GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT option lets the memory allocator know that this is untrusted allocation triggered from userspace and should be a subject of kmem accountingis, and as such it is controlled by the cgroup mechanism. [1] As part of this change, we allow loading in mlx5 driver larger images than 512 MB by dropping the arbitrary hard-coded value that we have today and move to use the max device loading value which is for now 4GB. In addition, the first patch from the series fixes a UBSAN note in mlx5 that was reported once the kernel was compiled with this option.
