PCI/P2PDMA: Allow userspace VMA allocations through sysfs

Browse source

Create a sysfs bin attribute called "allocate" under the existing
"p2pmem" group. The only allowable operation on this file is the mmap()
call.

When mmap() is called on this attribute, the kernel allocates a chunk of
memory from the genalloc and inserts the pages into the VMA. The
dev_pagemap .page_free callback will indicate when these pages are no
longer used and they will be put back into the genalloc.

On device unbind, remove the sysfs file before the memremap_pages are
cleaned up. This ensures unmap_mapping_range() is called on the files
inode and no new mappings can be created.
