Big differences to other contenders in the field (like ion) is
that this also supports highmem, so we have to split up the cpu
access from the kernel side into a prepare and a kmap step.
Prepare is allowed to fail and should do everything required so that
the kmap calls can succeed (like swapin/backing storage allocation,
flushing, ...).
More in-depth explanations will follow in the follow-up documentation
patch.
Changes in v2:
- Clear up begin_cpu_access confusion noticed by Sumit Semwal.
- Don't automatically fallback from the _atomic variants to the
non-atomic variants. The _atomic callbacks are not allowed to
sleep, so we want exporters to make this decision explicit. The
function signatures are explicit, so simpler exporters can still
use the same function for both.
- Make the unmap functions optional. Simpler exporters with permanent
mappings don't need to do anything at unmap time.
Changes in v3:
- Adjust the WARN_ON checks for the new ->ops functions as suggested
by Rob Clark and Sumit Semwal.
- Rebased on top of latest dma-buf-next git.
Changes in v4:
- Fixup a missing - in a return -EINVAL; statement.

The mutex protects the attachment list and hence needs to be held
around the callbakc to the exporters (optional) attach/detach
functions.
Holding the mutex around the map/unmap calls doesn't protect any
dma_buf state. Exporters need to properly protect any of their own
state anyway (to protect against calls from their own interfaces).
So this only makes the locking messier (and lockdep easier to anger).
Therefore let's just drop this.

Works in a similar way to get_file(), and is needed in cases such as
when the exporter needs to also keep a reference to the dmabuf (that
is later released with a dma_buf_put()), and possibly other similar
cases.

We need to pass the flags into dma_buf_fd at this point,
so the flags end up doing the right thing for O_CLOEXEC.

Some exporters may use DMA map/unmap APIs in dma-buf ops, which require
enum dma_data_direction for both map and unmap operations.
Thus, the unmap dma_buf_op also needs to have enum dma_data_direction as
a parameter.

This is the first step in defining a dma buffer sharing mechanism.
A new buffer object dma_buf is added, with operations and API to allow easy
sharing of this buffer object across devices.
The framework allows:
- creation of a buffer object, its association with a file pointer, and
associated allocator-defined operations on that buffer. This operation is
called the 'export' operation.
- different devices to 'attach' themselves to this exported buffer object, to
facilitate backing storage negotiation, using dma_buf_attach() API.
- the exported buffer object to be shared with the other entity by asking for
its 'file-descriptor (fd)', and sharing the fd across.
- a received fd to get the buffer object back, where it can be accessed using
the associated exporter-defined operations.
- the exporter and user to share the scatterlist associated with this buffer
object using map_dma_buf and unmap_dma_buf operations.
Atleast one 'attach()' call is required to be made prior to calling the
map_dma_buf() operation.
Couple of building blocks in map_dma_buf() are added to ease introduction
of sync'ing across exporter and users, and late allocation by the exporter.
For this first version, this framework will work with certain conditions:
- *ONLY* exporter will be allowed to mmap to userspace (outside of this
framework - mmap is not a buffer object operation),
- currently, *ONLY* users that do not need CPU access to the buffer are
allowed.
More details are there in the documentation patch.
This is based on design suggestions from many people at the mini-summits[1],
most notably from Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>, Rob Clark <rob@ti.com> and
Daniel Vetter <daniel@ffwll.ch>.
The implementation is inspired from proof-of-concept patch-set from
Tomasz Stanislawski <t.stanislaws@samsung.com>, who demonstrated buffer sharing
between two v4l2 devices. [2]
