On the first validate of an imported dma-buf (initial bind), the device
has no GPU mappings, so a rebind is unnecessary. Rebinding here is
harmful in multi-GPU setups and for VMs using preempt-fence mode, as it
would evict in-flight GPU work.
v2:
- Drop dma_buf_validated, check for XE_PL_SYSTEM (Thomas)

====================
bpf: introduce and use rcu_read_lock_dont_migrate
migrate_disable() and rcu_read_lock() are used to together in many case in
bpf. However, when PREEMPT_RCU is not enabled, rcu_read_lock() will
disable preemption, which indicate migrate_disable(), so we don't need to
call it in this case.
In this series, we introduce rcu_read_lock_dont_migrate and
rcu_read_unlock_migrate, which will call migrate_disable and
migrate_enable only when PREEMPT_RCU enabled. And use
rcu_read_lock_dont_migrate in bpf subsystem.
Changes since V2:
* make rcu_read_lock_dont_migrate() more compatible by using IS_ENABLED()
Changes since V1:
* introduce rcu_read_lock_dont_migrate() instead of
rcu_migrate_disable() + rcu_read_lock()

Currently, ip_extract_route_hint uses RTN_BROADCAST to decide
whether to use the route dst hint mechanism.
This check is too strict, as it prevents directed broadcast
routes from using the hint, resulting in poor performance
during bursts of directed broadcast traffic.
Fix this in ip_extract_route_hint and modify ip_route_use_hint
to preserve the intended behaviour.
