[ Upstream commit c4b4d7047f16a8d138ce76da65faefb7165736f2 ]

This patch fixes a bug where GEN1 VMs doesn't allow resolutions greater
than 64 MB size (eg 7680x4320). Unnecessary PCI check limits Gen1 VRAM
to legacy PCI BAR size only (ie 64MB). Thus any, resolution requesting
greater then 64MB (eg 7680x4320) would fail. MMIO region assigning this
memory shouldn't be limited by PCI bar size.

<title>video: hyperv_fb: Fix validation of screen resolution</title>

<id>9ff5549b1d1d3c3a9d71220d44bd246586160f1d</id>
<content type='text'>
In the WIN10 version of the Synthetic Video protocol with Hyper-V,
Hyper-V reports a list of supported resolutions as part of the protocol
negotiation. The driver calculates the maximum width and height from
the list of resolutions, and uses those maximums to validate any screen
resolution specified in the video= option on the kernel boot line.

This method of validation is incorrect. For example, the list of
supported resolutions could contain 1600x1200 and 1920x1080, both of
which fit in an 8 Mbyte frame buffer.  But calculating the max width
and height yields 1920 and 1200, and 1920x1200 resolution does not fit
in an 8 Mbyte frame buffer.  Unfortunately, this resolution is accepted,
causing a kernel fault when the driver accesses memory outside the
frame buffer.

Instead, validate the specified screen resolution by calculating
its size, and comparing against the frame buffer size.  Delete the
code for calculating the max width and height from the list of
resolutions, since these max values have no use.  Also add the
frame buffer size to the info message to aid in understanding why
a resolution might be rejected.

<title>kernel.h: split out panic and oops helpers</title>

kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time.
Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out panic and
oops helpers.

There are several purposes of doing this:
- dropping dependency in bug.h
- dropping a loop by moving out panic_notifier.h
- unload kernel.h from something which has its own domain

At the same time convert users tree-wide to use new headers, although for
the time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted
indirected includes for existing users.

Due to a full ring buffer, the driver may be unable to send updates to
the Hyper-V host.  But outputing the error message can make the problem
worse because console output is also typically written to the frame
buffer.  As a result, in some circumstances the error message is output
continuously.

Break the cycle by rate limiting the error message.  Also output
the error code for additional diagnosability.

Function hvfb_probe() calls hvfb_getmem(), expecting upon return that
info-&gt;apertures is either NULL or points to memory that should be freed
by framebuffer_release().  But hvfb_getmem() is freeing the memory and
leaving the pointer non-NULL, resulting in a double free if an error
occurs or later if hvfb_remove() is called.

Fix this by removing all kfree(info-&gt;apertures) calls in hvfb_getmem().
This will allow framebuffer_release() to free the memory, which follows
the pattern of other fbdev drivers.

<content type='text'>
x86 Hyper-V used to essentially always overwrite the effective cache type
of guest memory accesses to WB. This was problematic in cases where there
is a physical device assigned to the VM, since that often requires that
the VM should have control over cache types. Thus, on newer Hyper-V since
2018, Hyper-V always honors the VM's cache type, but unexpectedly Linux VM
users start to complain that Linux VM's VRAM becomes very slow, and it
turns out that Linux VM should not map the VRAM uncacheable by ioremap().
Fix this slowness issue by using ioremap_cache().

On ARM64, ioremap_cache() is also required as the host also maps the VRAM
cacheable, otherwise VM Connect can't display properly with ioremap() or
ioremap_wc().

With this change, the VRAM on new Hyper-V is as fast as regular RAM, so
it's no longer necessary to use the hacks we added to mitigate the
slowness, i.e. we no longer need to allocate physical memory and use
it to back up the VRAM in Generation-1 VM, and we also no longer need to
allocate physical memory to back up the framebuffer in a Generation-2 VM
and copy the framebuffer to the real VRAM. A further big change will
address these for v5.11.

is a physical device assigned to the VM, since that often requires that
the VM should have control over cache types. Thus, on newer Hyper-V since
2018, Hyper-V always honors the VM's cache type, but unexpectedly Linux VM
users start to complain that Linux VM's VRAM becomes very slow, and it
turns out that Linux VM should not map the VRAM uncacheable by ioremap().
Fix this slowness issue by using ioremap_cache().

On ARM64, ioremap_cache() is also required as the host also maps the VRAM
cacheable, otherwise VM Connect can't display properly with ioremap() or
ioremap_wc().

With this change, the VRAM on new Hyper-V is as fast as regular RAM, so
it's no longer necessary to use the hacks we added to mitigate the
slowness, i.e. we no longer need to allocate physical memory and use
it to back up the VRAM in Generation-1 VM, and we also no longer need to
allocate physical memory to back up the framebuffer in a Generation-2 VM
and copy the framebuffer to the real VRAM. A further big change will
address these for v5.11.

hvfb_getmem uses vzalloc, therefore vmalloc.h should be included.

<title>hyperv_fb: Update screen_info after removing old framebuffer</title>

On gen2 HyperV VM, hyperv_fb will remove the old framebuffer, and the
new allocated framebuffer address could be at a differnt location,
and it might be no longer a VGA framebuffer.

Update screen_info so that after kexec the kernel won't try to reuse
the old invalid/stale framebuffer address as VGA, corrupting memory.
