When the kernel is running in secure boot mode, we lock down the kernel to
prevent userspace from modifying the running kernel image. Whilst this
includes prohibiting access to things like /dev/mem, it must also prevent
access by means of configuring driver modules in such a way as to cause a
device to access or modify the kernel image.
To this end, annotate module_param* statements that refer to hardware
configuration and indicate for future reference what type of parameter they
specify. The parameter parser in the core sees this information and can
skip such parameters with an error message if the kernel is locked down.
The module initialisation then runs as normal, but just sees whatever the
default values for those parameters is.
Note that we do still need to do the module initialisation because some
drivers have viable defaults set in case parameters aren't specified and
some drivers support automatic configuration (e.g. PNP or PCI) in addition
to manually coded parameters.
This patch annotates drivers in drivers/pcmcia/.

[Note: With regard to cs5535-clockevt.c, Thomas Gleixner asked whether the
timer_irq parameter is required for the driver to work on anything other than
arbitrary hardware which has it mapped to 0. Jens Rottmann replied that the
parameter defaults to 0, which means:
1. autodetect (=keep IRQ BIOS has set up)
2. if that fails use CONFIG_CS5535_MFGPT_DEFAULT_IRQ
(see drivers/misc/cs5535-mfgpt.c: cs5535_mfgpt_set_irq())
Jens further noted that there may not be any systems that have CS5535/36
devices that support EFI and secure boot.]

When the rdma device is removed, we must cleanup all
the rdma resources within the DEVICE_REMOVAL event
handler to let the device teardown gracefully. When
this happens with live I/O, some memory regions are
occupied. Thus, track them too and dereg all the mr's.
We are safe with mr access by iscsi_iser_cleanup_task.

This workqueue is used by our storage target mode ULPs
via the new CQ API. Recent observations when working
with very high-end flash storage devices reveal that
UNBOUND workqueue threads can migrate between cpu cores
and even numa nodes (although some numa locality is accounted
for).
While this attribute can be useful in some workloads,
it does not fit in very nicely with the normal
run-to-completion model we usually use in our target-mode
ULPs and the block-mq irq<->cpu affinity facilities.
The whole block-mq concept is that the completion will
land on the same cpu where the submission was performed.
The fact that our submitter thread is migrating cpus
can break this locality.
We assume that as a target mode ULP, we will serve multiple
initiators/clients and we can spread the load enough without
having to use unbound kworkers.
Also, while we're at it, expose this workqueue via sysfs which
is harmless and can be useful for debug.

According to C9-147, MSN should only be incremented when the last packet of
a multi packet request has been received.
"Logically, the requester associates a sequential Send Sequence Number
(SSN) with each WQE posted to the send queue. The SSN bears a one-
to-one relationship to the MSN returned by the responder in each re-
sponse packet. Therefore, when the requester receives a response, it in-
terprets the MSN as representing the SSN of the most recent request
completed by the responder to determine which send WQE(s) can be
completed."

Avoid that the following error message is reported on the console
while loading an RDMA driver with I/O MMU support enabled:
DMAR: Allocating domain for mlx5_0 failed
Ensure that DMA mapping operations that use to_pci_dev() to
access to struct pci_dev see the correct PCI device. E.g. the s390
and powerpc DMA mapping operations use to_pci_dev() even with I/O
MMU support disabled.
This patch preserves the following changes of the DMA mapping updates
patch series:
- Introduction of dma_virt_ops.
- Removal of ib_device.dma_ops.
- Removal of struct ib_dma_mapping_ops.
- Removal of an if-statement from each ib_dma_*() operation.
- IB HW drivers no longer set dma_device directly.

When vmalloc_user is used to create memory that is supposed to be mmap'd
to user space, it is necessary for the mmap cookie (eg the offset) to be
aligned to SHMLBA.
This creates a situation where all virtual mappings of the same physical
page share the same virtual cache index and guarantees VIPT coherence.
Otherwise the cache is non-coherent and the kernel will not see writes
by userspace when reading the shared page (or vice-versa).
