Rework handling of multiple I/O requests to return -EAGAIN if
we are already processing an I/O request. Introduce a mutex
to disallow concurrent writes to the I/O region.

The expectation is that userspace simply retries the operation
if it gets -EAGAIN.

We currently don't allow multiple ssch requests at the same
time, as we don't have support for keeping channel programs
around for more than one request.

[1] I think these changes are cool. We end up going into (and staying in) state=BUSY if we get cc=0 on the SSCH, rather than in/out as we bumble along.

But why can't these be separated out from this patch? It does change the behavior of the state machine, and seem distinct from the addition of the mutex you otherwise add here? At the very least, this behavior change should be documented in the commit since it's otherwise lost in the mutex/EAGAIN stuff.

Ah, I see Halil's difficulty here.

It is true there is a race condition today, and that this doesn't address it. That's fine, add it to the todo list. But even with that, I don't see what the mutex is enforcing? Two simultaneous SSCHs will be serialized (one will get kicked out with a failed trylock() call), while still leaving the window open between cc=0 on the SSCH and the subsequent interrupt. In the latter case, a second SSCH will come through here, do the copy_from_user below, and then jump to fsm_io_busy to return EAGAIN. Do we really want to stomp on io_region in that case? Why can't we simply return EAGAIN if state==BUSY?
