Check physical PFN is valid before converting the PFN to a struct page
pointer to be returned to caller of vfio_pin_pages().

vfio_pin_pages() pins user pages with contiguous IOVA.
If the IOVA of a user page to be pinned belongs to vma of vm_flags
VM_PFNMAP, pin_user_pages_remote() will return -EFAULT without returning
struct page address for this PFN. This is because usually this kind of PFN
(e.g. MMIO PFN) has no valid struct page address associated.
Upon this error, vaddr_get_pfns() will obtain the physical PFN directly.

While previously vfio_pin_pages() returns to caller PFN arrays directly,
after commit
34a255e67615 ("vfio: Replace phys_pfn with pages for vfio_pin_pages()"),
PFNs will be converted to "struct page *" unconditionally and therefore
the returned "struct page *" array may contain invalid struct page
addresses.

Given current in-tree users of vfio_pin_pages() only expect "struct page *
returned, check PFN validity and return -EINVAL to let the caller be
aware of IOVAs to be pinned containing PFN not able to be returned in
"struct page *" array. So that, the caller will not consume the returned
pointer (e.g. test PageReserved()) and avoid error like "supervisor read
access in kernel mode".

 "Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.4-rc1.

  Once again, a busy development cycle, with lots of changes happening
  in the driver core in the quest to be able to move "struct bus" and
  "struct class" into read-only memory, a task now complete with these
  changes.

  This will make the future rust interactions with the driver core more
  "provably correct" as well as providing more obvious lifetime rules
  for all busses and classes in the kernel.

  The changes required for this did touch many individual classes and
  busses as many callbacks were changed to take const * parameters
  instead. All of these changes have been submitted to the various
  subsystem maintainers, giving them plenty of time to review, and most
  of them actually did so.

  Other than those changes, included in here are a small set of other
  things:

   - kobject logging improvements

   - cacheinfo improvements and updates

   - obligatory fw_devlink updates and fixes

   - documentation updates

   - device property cleanups and const * changes

<title>vfio/pci: Add DVSEC PCI Extended Config Capability to user visible list.</title>

<content type='text'>
The Designated Vendor-Specific Extended Capability (DVSEC Capability) is an
optional Extended Capability that is permitted to be implemented by any PCI
Express Function. This allows PCI Express component vendors to use
the Extended Capability mechanism to expose vendor-specific registers that can
be present in components by a variety of vendors. A DVSEC Capability structure
can tell vendor-specific software which features a particular component
supports.

An example usage of DVSEC is Intel Platform Monitoring Technology (PMT) for
enumerating and accessing hardware monitoring capabilities on a device.
PMT encompasses three device monitoring features, Telemetry (device metrics),
Watcher (sampling/tracing), and Crashlog. The DVSEC is used to discover these
features and provide a BAR offset to their registers with the Intel vendor code.

The current VFIO driver does not pass DVSEC capabilities to Virtual Machine (VM)
which makes PMT not to work inside the virtual machine. This series adds DVSEC
capability to user visible list to allow its use with VFIO. VFIO supports
passing of Vendor Specific Extended Capability (VSEC) and raw write access to
device. DVSEC also passed to VM in the same way as of VSEC.

The following selftest patch requires both the bug fixes and the
improvements of the selftest framework.

* iommufd/for-rc:
  iommufd: Do not corrupt the pfn list when doing batch carry
  iommufd: Fix unpinning of pages when an access is present
  iommufd: Check for uptr overflow
  Linux 6.3-rc5

After making the no-DMA drivers (samples/vfio-mdev) providing iommufd
callbacks, __vfio_register_dev() should check the presence of the iommufd
callbacks if CONFIG_IOMMUFD is enabled.

This harmonizes the no-DMA devices (the vfio-mdev sample drivers) with
the emulated devices (gvt-g, vfio-ap etc.). It makes it easier to add
BIND_IOMMUFD user interface which requires to return an iommufd ID to
represent the device/iommufd bond.
