Commit 9933fc0i (ext4: introduce ext4_kvmalloc(), ext4_kzalloc(), and
ext4_kvfree()) intruduced wrappers around k*alloc/vmalloc but introduced
a typo for ext4_kzalloc() by not using kzalloc() but kmalloc().

EINJ parameter support is only usable for some specific BIOS.
Originally, it is expected to have no harm for BIOS does not support
it. But now, we found it will cause issue (memory overwriting) for
some BIOS. So param support is disabled by default and only enabled
when newly added module parameter named "param_extension" is
explicitly specified.

memory_failure_queue() is called when recoverable memory errors are
notified by firmware to do the recovery work.

memory_failure() is the entry point for HWPoison memory error
recovery. It must be called in process context. But commonly
hardware memory errors are notified via MCE or NMI, so some delayed
execution mechanism must be used. In MCE handler, a work queue + ring
buffer mechanism is used.
In addition to MCE, now APEI (ACPI Platform Error Interface) GHES
(Generic Hardware Error Source) can be used to report memory errors
too. To add support to APEI GHES memory recovery, a mechanism similar
to that of MCE is implemented. memory_failure_queue() is the new
entry point that can be called in IRQ context. The next step is to
make MCE handler uses this interface too.

printk is used by GHES to report hardware errors. Ratelimit is
enforced on the printk to avoid too many hardware error reports in
kernel log. Because there may be thousands or even millions of
corrected hardware errors during system running.
Currently, a simple scheme is used. That is, the total number of
hardware error reporting is ratelimited. This may cause some issues
in practice.
For example, there are two kinds of hardware errors occurred in
system. One is corrected memory error, because the fault memory
address is accessed frequently, there may be hundreds error report
per-second. The other is corrected PCIe AER error, it will be
reported once per-second. Because they share one ratelimit control
structure, it is highly possible that only memory error is reported.
To avoid the above issue, an error record content based throttle
algorithm is implemented in the patch. Where after the first
successful reporting, all error records that are same are throttled for
some time, to let other kinds of error records have the opportunity to
be reported.
In above example, the memory errors will be throttled for some time,
after being printked. Then the PCIe AER error will be printked
successfully.

Some APEI GHES recoverable errors are reported via NMI, but printk is
not safe in NMI context.
To solve the issue, a lock-less memory allocator is used to allocate
memory in NMI handler, save the error record into the allocated
memory, put the error record into a lock-less list. On the other
hand, an irq_work is used to delay the operation from NMI context to
IRQ context. The irq_work IRQ handler will remove nodes from
lock-less list, printk the error record and do some further processing
include recovery operation, then free the memory.

This version of the gen_pool memory allocator supports lockless
operation.
This makes it safe to use in NMI handlers and other special
unblockable contexts that could otherwise deadlock on locks. This is
implemented by using atomic operations and retries on any conflicts.
The disadvantage is that there may be livelocks in extreme cases. For
better scalability, one gen_pool allocator can be used for each CPU.
The lockless operation only works if there is enough memory available.
If new memory is added to the pool a lock has to be still taken. So
any user relying on locklessness has to ensure that sufficient memory
is preallocated.
The basic atomic operation of this allocator is cmpxchg on long. On
architectures that don't have NMI-safe cmpxchg implementation, the
allocator can NOT be used in NMI handler. So code uses the allocator
in NMI handler should depend on CONFIG_ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG.

Cmpxchg is used to implement adding new entry to the list, deleting
all entries from the list, deleting first entry of the list and some
other operations.
Because this is a single list, so the tail can not be accessed in O(1).
If there are multiple producers and multiple consumers, llist_add can
be used in producers and llist_del_all can be used in consumers. They
can work simultaneously without lock. But llist_del_first can not be
used here. Because llist_del_first depends on list->first->next does
not changed if list->first is not changed during its operation, but
llist_del_first, llist_add, llist_add (or llist_del_all, llist_add,
llist_add) sequence in another consumer may violate that.
If there are multiple producers and one consumer, llist_add can be
used in producers and llist_del_all or llist_del_first can be used in
the consumer.
This can be summarized as follow:
| add | del_first | del_all
add | - | - | -
del_first | | L | L
del_all | | | -
Where "-" stands for no lock is needed, while "L" stands for lock is
needed.
The list entries deleted via llist_del_all can be traversed with
traversing function such as llist_for_each etc. But the list entries
can not be traversed safely before deleted from the list. The order
of deleted entries is from the newest to the oldest added one. If you
want to traverse from the oldest to the newest, you must reverse the
order by yourself before traversing.
The basic atomic operation of this list is cmpxchg on long. On
architectures that don't have NMI-safe cmpxchg implementation, the
list can NOT be used in NMI handler. So code uses the list in NMI
handler should depend on CONFIG_ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG.

cmpxchg() is widely used by lockless code, including NMI-safe lockless
code. But on some architectures, the cmpxchg() implementation is not
NMI-safe, on these architectures the lockless code may need a
spin_trylock_irqsave() based implementation.
This patch adds a Kconfig option: ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, so that
NMI-safe lockless code can depend on it or provide different
implementation according to it.
On many architectures, cmpxchg is only NMI-safe for several specific
operand sizes. So, ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG define in this patch
only guarantees cmpxchg is NMI-safe for sizeof(unsigned long).

The SIGA-W may return with the busy bit set which means the device was
blocked. The busy loop which retries the SIGA-W for 100us may not be
long enough when running under a heavily loaded hypervisor.
Extend the retry mechanism by adding a longer second stage which retries
the SIGA-W for up to 10s. In difference to the first retry loop the second
stage is using mdelay to stop the cpu between the retries and thereby
avoid additional preassure in on the hypervisor.
If the second stage retry is successfull a device reset is avoided.

Problem: HW DDP context was not invalidated in case of ABORTS, etc...
This leads to the problem where memory pages which are used for DDP
as user descriptor could get reused for some other purpose (such as to
satisfy new memory allocation request either by kernel or user mode threads)
and since HW DDP context was not invalidated, HW continue to write to
those pages, hence causing memory corruption.
Fix: Either on incoming ABORTS or due to exchange time out, allowed the
target to cleanup HW DDP context if it was setup for respective ft_cmd.
Added new function to perform this cleanup, furthur it can be enhanced
for other cleanup activity. Fix ft_recv_write_data() to properly handle
fc_frame_payload_get to return pointer to payload if it exist. If there is
no payload which is most common case (+ve case in case if DDP is working
as expected, it will return NULL. Yes, scope of buf is limited to printk.
Invalidation of HW context (which is done inside ft_invl_hw_context() is
necessary in SUCCESS and FAILURE case of DDP. Hence invalidation is DONE
as long as there was DDP setup (whether it worked correctly or not,
NOTE: For some reason, if there is any error w.r.t DDP such as out of
order packet reception, HW simply post the full packet in rx queue.
