Joerg Roedel ff489fe002 Merge branch 'iommu-memory-accounting' into core
Merge patch-set from Jason:

	"Let iommufd charge IOPTE allocations to the memory cgroup"

Description:

IOMMUFD follows the same design as KVM and uses memory cgroups to limit
the amount of kernel memory a iommufd file descriptor can pin down. The
various internal data structures already use GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT to charge
its own memory.

However, one of the biggest consumers of kernel memory is the IOPTEs
stored under the iommu_domain and these allocations are not tracked.

This series is the first step in fixing it.

The iommu driver contract already includes a 'gfp' argument to the
map_pages op, allowing iommufd to specify GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT and then
having the driver allocate the IOPTE tables with that flag will capture a
significant amount of the allocations.

Update the iommu_map() API to pass in the GFP argument, and fix all call
sites. Replace iommu_map_atomic().

Audit the "enterprise" iommu drivers to make sure they do the right thing.
Intel and S390 ignore the GFP argument and always use GFP_ATOMIC. This is
problematic for iommufd anyhow, so fix it. AMD and ARM SMMUv2/3 are
already correct.

A follow up series will be needed to capture the allocations made when the
iommu_domain itself is allocated, which will complete the job.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
