When creating a VM, it is very convenient to have an irq domain

A long time ago, GITS_CTLR[1] used to be called GITC_CTLR.EnableVLPI.
It has been subsequently deprecated and is now an "Implementation
Defined" bit that may ot may not be set for GICv4. Brilliant.
And the current crop of the FastModel requires that bit for VLPIs
to be enabled. Oh well... Let's set it and find out what breaks.

While the doorbell interrupts are usually driven by the HW itself,
having a way to trigger them independently has proved to be a
really useful debug feature. As it is actually very little code,
let's add it to the VPE irqchip operations.

After moving a VPE from a redistributor to another, we're still left
with a potential pending doorbell interrupt on the old redistributor.
That interrupt should be moved to the new one to be either cleared
or take, depending on what the hypervisor wishes to do.
So let's move it right after having execited VMOVP. This doesn't
add much cost in the !DirectLPI case (we trade a DISCARD for a MOVI),
and the cost of the DIRECTLPI case should be minimal (two extra MMIO
accesses).

When we don't have the DirectLPI feature, we must work around the
architecture shortcomings to be able to perform the required
maintenance (interrupt masking, clearing and injection).
For this, we create a fake device whose sole purpose is to
provide a way to issue commands as if we were dealing with LPIs
coming from that device (while they actually originate from
the ITS). This fake device doesn't have LPIs allocated to it,
but instead uses the VPE LPIs.
Of course, this could be a real bottleneck, and a naive
implementation would require 6 commands to issue an invalidation.
Instead, let's allocate at least one event per physical CPU
(rounded up to the next power of 2), and opportunistically
map the VPE doorbell to an event. This doorbell will be mapped
until we roll over and need to reallocate this slot.
This ensures that most of the time, we only need 2 commands
to issue an INV, INT or CLEAR, making the performance a lot
better, given that we always issue a CLEAR on entry, and
an INV on each side of a trapped WFI.

The normal course of action when allocating the ITS' view of a
device is to allocate the corresponding LPIs. But we're about
to introduce devices that borrow their interrupts from
some other entities.
So let's make the allocation optional.

When we're about to run a vcpu, it is crucial that the redistributor
associated with the physical CPU is being told about the new residency.
This is abstracted by hijacking the irq_set_affinity method for the
doorbell interrupt associated with the VPE. It is expected that the
hypervisor will call this method before scheduling the VPE.

When a VPE is scheduled to run, the corresponding redistributor must
be told so, by setting VPROPBASER to the VM's property table, and
VPENDBASER to the vcpu's pending table.
When scheduled out, we preserve the IDAI and PendingLast bits. The
latter is specially important, as it tells the hypervisor that
there are pending interrupts for this vcpu.

When creating a VM, the low level GICv4 code is responsible for:
- allocating each VPE a unique VPEID
- allocating a doorbell interrupt for each VPE
- allocating the pending tables for each VPE
- allocating the property table for the VM
This of course has to be reversed when the VM is brought down.
All of this is wired into the irq domain alloc/free methods.

When changing a file's acl mask, __gfs2_set_acl() will first set the
group bits of i_mode to the value of the mask, and only then set the
actual extended attribute representing the new acl.
If the second part fails (due to lack of space, for example) and the
file had no acl attribute to begin with, the system will from now on
assume that the mask permission bits are actual group permission bits,
potentially granting access to the wrong users.
Prevent this by only changing the inode mode after the acl has been set.

Adding CQ ioctl actions:
1. create_cq
2. destroy_cq
This requires adding the following:
1. A specification describing the method
a. Handler
b. Attributes specification
Each attribute is one of the following:
a. PTR_IN - input data
Note: This could be encoded inlined for
data < 64bit
b. PTR_OUT - response data
c. IDR - idr based object
d. FD - fd based object
Blobs attributes (clauses a and b) contain their type,
while objects specifications (clauses c and d)
contains the expected object type (for example, the
given id should be UVERBS_TYPE_PD) and the required
access (READ, WRITE, NEW or DESTROY). If a NEW is
required, the new object's id will be assigned to this
attribute. All attributes could get UA_FLAGS
attribute. Currently we support stating that an
attribute is mandatory or that the specification size
corresponds to a lower bound (and that this attribute
could be extended).
We currently add both default attributes and the two
generic UHW_IN and UHW_OUT driver specific attributes.
2. Handler
A handler gets a uverbs_attr_bundle. The handler developer uses
uverbs_attr_get to fetch an attribute of a given id.
Each of these attribute groups correspond to the specification
group defined in the action (clauses 1.b and 1.c respectively).
The indices of these arrays corresponds to the attribute ids
declared in the specifications (clause 2).
The handler is quite simple. It assumes the infrastructure fetched
all objects and locked, created or destroyed them as required by
the specification. Pointer (or blob) attributes were validated to
match their required sizes. After the handler finished, the
infrastructure commits or rollbacks the objects.

Driver's data should start from UVERBS_UDATA_DRIVER_DATA_FLAG. This

When some objects are destroyed, we need to extract their status at
destruction. After object's destruction, this status
(e.g. events_reported) relies in the uobject. In order to have the
latest and correct status, the underlying object should be destroyed,
but we should keep the uobject alive and read this information off the
uobject. We introduce a rdma_explicit_destroy function. This function
destroys the class type object (for example, the IDR class type which
destroys the underlying object as well) and then convert the uobject
to be of a null class type. This uobject will then be destroyed as any
other uobject once uverbs_finalize_object[s] is called.

Different drivers support different features and even subset of the
common uverbs implementation. Currently, this is handled as bitmask
in every driver that represents which kind of methods it supports, but
doesn't go down to attributes granularity. Moreover, drivers might
want to add their specific types, methods and attributes to let
their user-space counter-parts be exposed to some more efficient
abstractions. It means that existence of different features is
validated syntactically via the parsing infrastructure rather than
using a complex in-handler logic.
In order to do that, we allow defining features and abstractions
as parsing trees. These per-feature parsing tree could be merged
to an efficient (perfect-hash based) parsing tree, which is later
used by the parsing infrastructure.
To sum it up, this makes a parse tree unique for a device and
represents only the features this particular device supports.
This is done by having a root specification tree per feature.
Before a device registers itself as an IB device, it merges
all these trees into one parsing tree. This parsing tree
is used to parse all user-space commands.
A future user-space application could read this parse tree. This
tree represents which objects, methods and attributes are
supported by this device.
This is based on the idea of

In this ioctl interface, processing the command starts from
properties of the command and fetching the appropriate user objects
before calling the handler.
Parsing and validation is done according to a specifier declared by
the driver's code. In the driver, all supported objects are declared.
These objects are separated to different object namepsaces. Dividing
objects to namespaces is done at initialization by using the higher
bits of the object ids. This initialization can mix objects declared
in different places to one parsing tree using in this ioctl interface.
For each object we list all supported methods. Similarly to objects,
methods are separated to method namespaces too. Namespacing is done
similarly to the objects case. This could be used in order to add
methods to an existing object.
Each method has a specific handler, which could be either a default
handler or a driver specific handler.
Along with the handler, a bunch of attributes are specified as well.
Similarly to objects and method, attributes are namespaced and hashed
by their ids at initialization too. All supported attributes are
subject to automatic fetching and validation. These attributes include
the command, response and the method's related objects' ids.
When these entities (objects, methods and attributes) are used, the
high bits of the entities ids are used in order to calculate the hash
bucket index. Then, these high bits are masked out in order to have a
zero based index. Since we use these high bits for both bucketing and
namespacing, we get a compact representation and O(1) array access.
This is mandatory for efficient dispatching.
Each attribute has a type (PTR_IN, PTR_OUT, IDR and FD) and a length.
Attributes could be validated through some attributes, like:
(*) Minimum size / Exact size
(*) Fops for FD
(*) Object type for IDR
If an IDR/fd attribute is specified, the kernel also states the object
type and the required access (NEW, WRITE, READ or DESTROY).
All uobject/fd management is done automatically by the infrastructure,
meaning - the infrastructure will fail concurrent commands that at
least one of them requires concurrent access (WRITE/DESTROY),
synchronize actions with device removals (dissociate context events)
and take care of reference counting (increase/decrease) for concurrent
actions invocation. The reference counts on the actual kernel objects
shall be handled by the handlers.

[d] = Hash ids to groups using the high order bits
The right types table is also chosen by using the high bits from
the ids. Currently we have either default or driver specific groups.
Once validation and object fetching (or creation) completed, we call
the handler:
int (*handler)(struct ib_device *ib_dev, struct ib_uverbs_file *ufile,
struct uverbs_attr_bundle *ctx);
ctx bundles attributes of different namespaces. Each element there
