  vfio/pci: Insert full vma on mmap'd MMIO fault (2024-06-12 15:40:39 -0600)

VFIO fixes for v6.10-rc4

 - Fix long standing lockdep issue of using remap_pfn_range() from
   the vfio-pci fault handler for mapping device MMIO.  Commit
   ba168b52bf8e ("mm: use rwsem assertion macros for mmap_lock") now
   exposes this as a warning forcing this to be addressed.

   remap_pfn_range() was used here to efficiently map the entire vma,
   but it really never should have been used in the fault handler and
   doesn't handle concurrency, which introduced complex locking.  We
   also needed to track vmas mapping the device memory in order to zap
   those vmas when the memory is disabled resulting in a vma list.

   Instead of all that mess, setup an address space on the device fd
   such that we can use unmap_mapping_range() for zapping to avoid
   the tracking overhead and use the standard vmf_insert_pfn() to
   insert mappings on fault.  For now we'll iterate the vma and
   opportunistically try to insert mappings for the entire vma.  This
   aligns with typical use cases, but hopefully in the future we can
   drop the iterative approach and make use of huge_fault instead,
   once vmf_insert_pfn{pud,pmd}() learn to handle pfnmaps.
