Implement `Allocator` for `Vmalloc`, the kernel's virtually contiguous
allocator, typically used for larger objects, (much) larger than page
size.
All memory allocations made with `Vmalloc` end up in `vrealloc()`.

Add a non-blocking trylock method to lock backend interface, mutex and
spinlock implementations. It includes a C helper for spin_trylock.
Rust Binder will use this method together with the new shrinker
abstractions to avoid deadlocks in the memory shrinker.

The lifetime of `PidNamespace` is bound to `Task` and `struct pid`.
The `PidNamespace` of a `Task` doesn't ever change once the `Task` is
alive. A `unshare(CLONE_NEWPID)` or `setns(fd_pidns/pidfd, CLONE_NEWPID)`
will not have an effect on the calling `Task`'s pid namespace. It will
only effect the pid namespace of children created by the calling `Task`.
This invariant guarantees that after having acquired a reference to a
`Task`'s pid namespace it will remain unchanged.
When a task has exited and been reaped `release_task()` will be called.
This will set the `PidNamespace` of the task to `NULL`. So retrieving
the `PidNamespace` of a task that is dead will return `NULL`. Note, that
neither holding the RCU lock nor holding a referencing count to the
`Task` will prevent `release_task()` being called.
In order to retrieve the `PidNamespace` of a `Task` the
`task_active_pid_ns()` function can be used. There are two cases to
consider:
(1) retrieving the `PidNamespace` of the `current` task (2) retrieving
the `PidNamespace` of a non-`current` task
From system call context retrieving the `PidNamespace` for case (1) is
always safe and requires neither RCU locking nor a reference count to be
held. Retrieving the `PidNamespace` after `release_task()` for current
will return `NULL` but no codepath like that is exposed to Rust.
Retrieving the `PidNamespace` from system call context for (2) requires
RCU protection. Accessing `PidNamespace` outside of RCU protection
requires a reference count that must've been acquired while holding the
RCU lock. Note that accessing a non-`current` task means `NULL` can be
returned as the non-`current` task could have already passed through
`release_task()`.
To retrieve (1) the `current_pid_ns!()` macro should be used which
ensure that the returned `PidNamespace` cannot outlive the calling
scope. The associated `current_pid_ns()` function should not be called
directly as it could be abused to created an unbounded lifetime for
`PidNamespace`. The `current_pid_ns!()` macro allows Rust to handle the
common case of accessing `current`'s `PidNamespace` without RCU
protection and without having to acquire a reference count.
For (2) the `task_get_pid_ns()` method must be used. This will always
acquire a reference on `PidNamespace` and will return an `Option` to
force the caller to explicitly handle the case where `PidNamespace` is
`None`, something that tends to be forgotten when doing the equivalent
operation in `C`. Missing RCU primitives make it difficult to perform
operations that are otherwise safe without holding a reference count as
long as RCU protection is guaranteed. But it is not important currently.
But we do want it in the future.
Note for (2) the required RCU protection around calling
`task_active_pid_ns()` synchronizes against putting the last reference
of the associated `struct pid` of `task->thread_pid`. The `struct pid`
stored in that field is used to retrieve the `PidNamespace` of the
caller. When `release_task()` is called `task->thread_pid` will be
`NULL`ed and `put_pid()` on said `struct pid` will be delayed in
`free_pid()` via `call_rcu()` allowing everyone with an RCU protected
access to the `struct pid` acquired from `task->thread_pid` to finish.

Adds a wrapper around `kuid_t` called `Kuid`. This allows us to define
various operations on kuids such as equality and current_euid. It also
lets us provide conversions from kuid into userspace values.
Rust Binder needs these operations because it needs to compare kuids for
equality, and it needs to tell userspace about the pid and uid of
incoming transactions.
To read kuids from a `struct task_struct`, you must currently use
various #defines that perform the appropriate field access under an RCU
read lock. Currently, we do not have a Rust wrapper for rcu_read_lock,
which means that for this patch, there are two ways forward:
1. Inline the methods into Rust code, and use __rcu_read_lock directly
rather than the rcu_read_lock wrapper. This gives up lockdep for
these usages of RCU.
2. Wrap the various #defines in helpers and call the helpers from Rust.
This patch uses the second option. One possible disadvantage of the
second option is the possible introduction of speculation gadgets, but
as discussed in [1], the risk appears to be acceptable.
Of course, once a wrapper for rcu_read_lock is available, it is
preferable to use that over either of the two above approaches.

Add an abstraction for viewing the string representation of a security
context.
This is needed by Rust Binder because it has a feature where a process
can view the string representation of the security context for incoming
transactions. The process can use that to authenticate incoming
transactions, and since the feature is provided by the kernel, the
process can trust that the security context is legitimate.
This abstraction makes the following assumptions about the C side:
* When a call to `security_secid_to_secctx` is successful, it returns a
pointer and length. The pointer references a byte string and is valid
for reading for that many bytes.
* The string may be referenced until `security_release_secctx` is
called.
* If CONFIG_SECURITY is set, then the three methods mentioned in
rust/helpers are available without a helper. (That is, they are not a
#define or `static inline`.)

Add a wrapper around `struct cred` called `Credential`, and provide
functionality to get the `Credential` associated with a `File`.
Rust Binder must check the credentials of processes when they attempt to
perform various operations, and these checks usually take a
`&Credential` as parameter. The security_binder_set_context_mgr function
would be one example. This patch is necessary to access these security_*
methods from Rust.
This Rust abstraction makes the following assumptions about the C side:
* `struct cred` is refcounted with `get_cred`/`put_cred`.
* It's okay to transfer a `struct cred` across threads, that is, you do
not need to call `put_cred` on the same thread as where you called
`get_cred`.
* The `euid` field of a `struct cred` never changes after
initialization.
* The `f_cred` field of a `struct file` never changes after
initialization.

This abstraction makes it possible to manipulate the open files for a
process. The new `File` struct wraps the C `struct file`. When accessing
it using the smart pointer `ARef<File>`, the pointer will own a
reference count to the file. When accessing it as `&File`, then the
reference does not own a refcount, but the borrow checker will ensure
that the reference count does not hit zero while the `&File` is live.
Since this is intended to manipulate the open files of a process, we
introduce an `fget` constructor that corresponds to the C `fget`
method. In future patches, it will become possible to create a new fd in
a process and bind it to a `File`. Rust Binder will use these to send
fds from one process to another.
We also provide a method for accessing the file's flags. Rust Binder
will use this to access the flags of the Binder fd to check whether the
non-blocking flag is set, which affects what the Binder ioctl does.
This introduces a struct for the EBADF error type, rather than just
using the Error type directly. This has two advantages:
* `File::fget` returns a `Result<ARef<File>, BadFdError>`, which the
compiler will represent as a single pointer, with null being an error.
This is possible because the compiler understands that `BadFdError`
has only one possible value, and it also understands that the
`ARef<File>` smart pointer is guaranteed non-null.
* Additionally, we promise to users of the method that the method can
only fail with EBADF, which means that they can rely on this promise
without having to inspect its implementation.
That said, there are also two disadvantages:
* Defining additional error types involves boilerplate.
* The question mark operator will only utilize the `From` trait once,
which prevents you from using the question mark operator on
`BadFdError` in methods that return some third error type that the
kernel `Error` is convertible into. (However, it works fine in methods
that return `Error`.)

In case CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT is enabled __mutex_init() becomes a macro
instead of an extern function (simplified from
include/linux/mutex.h):
#ifndef CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT
extern void __mutex_init(struct mutex *lock, const char *name,
struct lock_class_key *key);
#else
#define __mutex_init(mutex, name, key) \
do { \
rt_mutex_base_init(&(mutex)->rtmutex); \
__mutex_rt_init((mutex), name, key); \
} while (0)
#endif
The macro isn't resolved by bindgen, then. What results in a build
error:

The rust rbtree exposes a map-like interface over keys and values,
backed by the kernel red-black tree implementation. Values can be
inserted, deleted, and retrieved from a `RBTree` by key.

This patch splits up the rust helpers C file. When rebasing patch sets on
upstream linux, merge conflicts in helpers.c is common and time consuming
[1]. Thus, split the file so that each kernel component can live in a
separate file.
This patch lists helper files explicitly and thus conflicts in the file
list is still likely. However, they should be more simple to resolve than
the conflicts usually seen in helpers.c.
[ Removed `README.md` and undeleted the original comment since now,
in v3 of the series, we have a `helpers.c` again; which also allows
us to keep the "Sorted alphabetically" line and makes the diff easier.
In addition, updated the Documentation/ mentions of the file, reworded
title and removed blank lines at the end of `page.c`. - Miguel ]
