Commit e76384884344 ("mm: introduce MEMORY_DEVICE_FS_DAX and
CONFIG_DEV_PAGEMAP_OPS") added two EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() symbols, but
these symbols are required by the inlined put_page(), thus accidentally
making put_page() a GPL export only.  This breaks OpenAFS (at least).

Mark them EXPORT_SYMBOL() instead.

In preparation for fixing dax-dma-vs-unmap issues, filesystems need to
be able to rely on the fact that they will get wakeups on dev_pagemap
page-idle events. Introduce MEMORY_DEVICE_FS_DAX and
generic_dax_page_free() as common indicator / infrastructure for dax
filesytems to require. With this change there are no users of the
MEMORY_DEVICE_HOST designation, so remove it.

The HMM sub-system extended dev_pagemap to arrange a callback when a
dev_pagemap managed page is freed. Since a dev_pagemap page is free /
idle when its reference count is 1 it requires an additional branch to
check the page-type at put_page() time. Given put_page() is a hot-path
we do not want to incur that check if HMM is not in use, so a static
branch is used to avoid that overhead when not necessary.

Now, the FS_DAX implementation wants to reuse this mechanism for
receiving dev_pagemap -&gt;page_free() callbacks. Rework the HMM-specific
static-key into a generic mechanism that either HMM or FS_DAX code paths
can enable.

For ARCH=um builds, and any other arch that lacks ZONE_DEVICE support,
care must be taken to compile out the DEV_PAGEMAP_OPS infrastructure.
However, we still need to support FS_DAX in the FS_DAX_LIMITED case
implemented by the s390/dcssblk driver.

Currently, kernel/memremap.c contains generic code for supporting
memremap() (CONFIG_HAS_IOMEM) and devm_memremap_pages()
(CONFIG_ZONE_DEVICE). This causes ongoing build maintenance problems as
additions to memremap.c, especially for the ZONE_DEVICE case, need to be
careful about being placed in ifdef guards. Remove the need for these
ifdef guards by moving the ZONE_DEVICE support functions to their own
compilation unit.

devm_memremap_pages() was re-worked in e8d513483300 "memremap: change
devm_memremap_pages interface to use struct dev_pagemap" to take a
caller allocated struct dev_pagemap as a function parameter. A call to
devres_free() was left in the error cleanup path which results in a
kernel panic if the remap fails for some reason. Remove it to fix the
panic and let devm_memremap_pages() fail gracefully.

If devm_memremap_pages() detects a collision while adding entries
to the radix-tree, we call pgmap_radix_release(). Unfortunately,
the function removes *all* entries for the range -- including the
entries that caused the collision in the first place.

Modify pgmap_radix_release() to take an additional argument to
indicate where to stop, so that only newly added entries are removed
from the tree.

The functions devm_memremap_pages() and devm_memremap_pages_release() use
different ways to calculate the section-aligned amount of memory. The
latter function may use an incorrect size if the memory region is small
but straddles a section border.

Use the same code for both.

There is only one caller of the trivial function find_dev_pagemap left,
so just merge it into the caller.

<title>memremap: change devm_memremap_pages interface to use struct dev_pagemap</title>

This new interface is similar to how struct device (and many others)
work. The caller initializes a 'struct dev_pagemap' as required
and calls 'devm_memremap_pages'. This allows the pagemap structure to
be embedded in another structure and thus container_of can be used. In
this way application specific members can be stored in a containing
struct.

This will be used by the P2P infrastructure and HMM could probably
be cleaned up to use it as well (instead of having it's own, similar
'hmm_devmem_pages_create' function).
