If a port was open before going into one of the sleep states, the port
can continue normal operation after restore.  However, the host has to
be told that the guest side of the connection is open to restore
pre-suspend state.

This wasn't noticed so far due to a bug in qemu that was fixed recently
(which marked the guest-side connection as always open).

Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when
they want to support a custom read/write function op.  This leads to a
proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire
tree.

Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we
can replace all the users of this function with simple_open().

This replacement was done with the following semantic patch:

&lt;smpl&gt;
@ open @
identifier open_f != simple_open;
identifier i, f;
@@
-int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f)
-{
(
-if (i-&gt;i_private)
-f-&gt;private_data = i-&gt;i_private;
|
-f-&gt;private_data = i-&gt;i_private;
)
-return 0;
-}

@ has_open depends on open @
identifier fops;
identifier open.open_f;
@@
struct file_operations fops = {
...
-.open = open_f,
+.open = simple_open,
...
};
&lt;/smpl&gt;

To ensure we don't receive any more interrupts from the host after we
enter the freeze function, disable all vq interrupts.

There wasn't any problem seen due to this in tests, but applying this
patch makes the freeze case more robust.

Remove all vqs and associated buffers in the freeze callback which
prepares us to go into hibernation state.  On restore, re-create all the
vqs and populate the input vqs with buffers to get to the pre-hibernate
state.

Note: Any outstanding unconsumed buffers are discarded; which means
there's a possibility of data loss in case the host or the guest didn't
consume any data already present in the vqs.  This can be addressed in a
later patch series, perhaps in virtio common code.

Remove wrapper functions. This makes the allocation type explicit in
all callers; I used GPF_KERNEL where it seemed obvious, left it at
GFP_ATOMIC otherwise.

On s390 I have seen some random

"Warning: unable to open an initial console"

boot failure. Turns out that tty_open fails, because the
hvc_alloc was not yet done. In former times this could not happen,
since the probe function automatically called hvc_alloc. With newer
versions (multiport) some host&lt;-&gt;guest interaction is required
before hvc_alloc is called. This might be too late, especially if
an initramfs is involved. Lets use a completion if we have
multiport and an early console.

[Amit:
  * Use NULL instead of 0 for pointer comparison
  * Rename 'port_added' to 'early_console_added'
  * Re-format, re-word commit message
  * Rebase patch on top of current queue]

This commit adds port-specific stats for the number of bytes received,
sent and discarded.  They're exposed via the debugfs interface.  This
data can be used to check for data loss bugs (or disprove such claims).
It can also be used for accounting, if there's such a need.

The stats remain valid throughout the lifetime of the port.  Unplugging
a port will reset the stats.  The numbers are not reset across port
opens/closes.

discard_port_data() used virtqueue_get_buf() directly instead of using
get_inbuf().  Fix this, so that we get accounting for all received
bytes.  This also simplifies the code a lot.
