Remove the redundant kvm_gmem_getattr() implementation that simply calls
generic_fillattr() without any special handling. The VFS layer
(vfs_getattr_nosec()) will call generic_fillattr() by default when no
custom getattr operation is provided in the inode_operations structure.
This is a cleanup with no functional change.

Add new members to strut kvm_gfn_range to indicate which mapping
(private-vs-shared) to operate on: enum kvm_gfn_range_filter
attr_filter. Update the core zapping operations to set them appropriately.
TDX utilizes two GPA aliases for the same memslots, one for memory that is
for private memory and one that is for shared. For private memory, KVM
cannot always perform the same operations it does on memory for default
VMs, such as zapping pages and having them be faulted back in, as this
requires guest coordination. However, some operations such as guest driven
conversion of memory between private and shared should zap private memory.
Internally to the MMU, private and shared mappings are tracked on separate
roots. Mapping and zapping operations will operate on the respective GFN
alias for each root (private or shared). So zapping operations will by
default zap both aliases. Add fields in struct kvm_gfn_range to allow
callers to specify which aliases so they can only target the aliases
appropriate for their specific operation.
There was feedback that target aliases should be specified such that the
default value (0) is to operate on both aliases. Several options were
considered. Several variations of having separate bools defined such
that the default behavior was to process both aliases. They either allowed
nonsensical configurations, or were confusing for the caller. A simple
enum was also explored and was close, but was hard to process in the
caller. Instead, use an enum with the default value (0) reserved as a
disallowed value. Catch ranges that didn't have the target aliases
specified by looking for that specific value.
Set target alias with enum appropriately for these MMU operations:
- For KVM's mmu notifier callbacks, zap shared pages only because private
pages won't have a userspace mapping
- For setting memory attributes, kvm_arch_pre_set_memory_attributes()
chooses the aliases based on the attribute.
- For guest_memfd invalidations, zap private only.

Remove the RCU-protected attribute from slot->gmem.file. No need to use RCU
primitives rcu_assign_pointer()/synchronize_rcu() to update this pointer.
- slot->gmem.file is updated in 3 places:
kvm_gmem_bind(), kvm_gmem_unbind(), kvm_gmem_release().
All of them are protected by kvm->slots_lock.
- slot->gmem.file is read in 2 paths:
(1) kvm_gmem_populate
kvm_gmem_get_file
__kvm_gmem_get_pfn
(2) kvm_gmem_get_pfn
kvm_gmem_get_file
__kvm_gmem_get_pfn
Path (1) kvm_gmem_populate() requires holding kvm->slots_lock, so
slot->gmem.file is protected by the kvm->slots_lock in this path.
Path (2) kvm_gmem_get_pfn() does not require holding kvm->slots_lock.
However, it's also not guarded by rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock().
So synchronize_rcu() in kvm_gmem_unbind()/kvm_gmem_release() actually
will not wait for the readers in kvm_gmem_get_pfn() due to lack of RCU
read-side critical section.
The path (2) kvm_gmem_get_pfn() is safe without RCU protection because:
a) kvm_gmem_bind() is called on a new memslot, before the memslot is
visible to kvm_gmem_get_pfn().
b) kvm->srcu ensures that kvm_gmem_unbind() and freeing of a memslot
occur after the memslot is no longer visible to kvm_gmem_get_pfn().
c) get_file_active() ensures that kvm_gmem_get_pfn() will not access the
stale file if kvm_gmem_release() sets it to NULL. This is because if
kvm_gmem_release() occurs before kvm_gmem_get_pfn(), get_file_active()
will return NULL; if get_file_active() does not return NULL,
kvm_gmem_release() should not occur until after kvm_gmem_get_pfn()
releases the file reference.

Refactor guest_memfd usage of __kvm_gmem_get_pfn() to pass the index into
the guest_memfd file instead of the gfn, i.e. resolve the index based on
the slot+gfn in the caller instead of in __kvm_gmem_get_pfn(). This will
allow kvm_gmem_get_pfn() to retrieve and return the specific "struct page",
which requires the index into the folio, without a redoing the index
calculation multiple times (which isn't costly, just hard to follow).
Opportunistically add a kvm_gmem_get_index() helper to make the copy+pasted
code easier to understand.

Right now, large folios are not supported in guest_memfd, and therefore the order
used by kvm_gmem_populate() is always 0. In this scenario, using the up-to-date
bit to track prepared-ness is nice and easy because we have one bit available
per page.
In the future, however, we might have large pages that are partially populated;
for example, in the case of SEV-SNP, if a large page has both shared and private
areas inside, it is necessary to populate it at a granularity that is smaller
than that of the guest_memfd's backing store. In that case we will have
to track preparedness at a 4K level, probably as a bitmap.
In preparation for that, do not use explicitly folio_test_uptodate() and
folio_mark_uptodate(). Return the state of the page directly from
__kvm_gmem_get_pfn(), so that it is expected to apply to 2^N pages
with N=*max_order. The function to mark a range as prepared for now
takes just a folio, but is expected to take also an index and order
(or something like that) when large pages are introduced.
Thanks to Michael Roth for pointing out the issue with large pages.

This check is currently performed by sev_gmem_post_populate(), but it
applies to all callers of kvm_gmem_populate(): the point of the function
is that the memory is being encrypted and some work has to be done
on all the gfns in order to encrypt them.
Therefore, check the KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE attribute prior
to invoking the callback, and stop the operation if a shared page
is encountered. Because CONFIG_KVM_PRIVATE_MEM in principle does
not require attributes, this makes kvm_gmem_populate() depend on
CONFIG_KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM (which does require them).

Do not allow populating the same page twice with startup data. In the
case of SEV-SNP, for example, the firmware does not allow it anyway,
since the launch-update operation is only possible on pages that are
still shared in the RMP.
Even if it worked, kvm_gmem_populate()'s callback is meant to have side
effects such as updating launch measurements, and updating the same
page twice is unlikely to have the desired results.
Races between calls to the ioctl are not possible because
kvm_gmem_populate() holds slots_lock and the VM should not be running.
But again, even if this worked on other confidential computing technology,
it doesn't matter to guest_memfd.c whether this is something fishy
such as missing synchronization in userspace, or rather something
intentional. One of the racers wins, and the page is initialized by
either kvm_gmem_prepare_folio() or kvm_gmem_populate().
Anyway, out of paranoia, adjust sev_gmem_post_populate() anyway to use
the same errno that kvm_gmem_populate() is using.

It is enough to return 0 if a guest need not do any preparation.
This is in fact how sev_gmem_prepare() works for non-SNP guests,
and it extends naturally to Intel hosts: the x86 callback for
gmem_prepare is optional and returns 0 if not defined.

This is now possible because preparation is done by kvm_gmem_get_pfn()
instead of fallocate(). In practice this is not a limitation, because
even though guest_memfd can be bound to multiple struct kvm, for
hardware implementations of confidential computing only one guest
(identified by an ASID on SEV-SNP, or an HKID on TDX) will be able
to access it.
In the case of intra-host migration (not implemented yet for SEV-SNP,
but we can use SEV-ES as an idea of how it will work), the new struct
kvm inherits the same ASID and preparation need not be repeated.

to the guest
Initializing the contents of the folio on fallocate() is unnecessarily
restrictive. It means that the page is registered with the firmware and
then it cannot be touched anymore. In particular, this loses the
possibility of using fallocate() to pre-allocate the page for SEV-SNP
guests, because kvm_arch_gmem_prepare() then fails.
It's only when the guest actually accesses the page (and therefore
kvm_gmem_get_pfn() is called) that the page must be cleared from any
stale host data and registered with the firmware. The up-to-date flag
is clear if this has to be done (i.e. it is the first access and
kvm_gmem_populate() has not been called).
All in all, there are enough differences between kvm_gmem_get_pfn() and
kvm_gmem_populate(), that it's better to separate the two flows completely.
Extract the bulk of kvm_gmem_get_folio(), which take a folio and end up
setting its up-to-date flag, to a new function kvm_gmem_prepare_folio();
these are now done only by the non-__-prefixed kvm_gmem_get_pfn().
As a bonus, __kvm_gmem_get_pfn() loses its ugly "bool prepare" argument.
One difference is that fallocate(PUNCH_HOLE) can now race with a
page fault. Potentially this causes a page to be prepared and into the
filemap even after fallocate(PUNCH_HOLE). This is harmless, as it can be
fixed by another hole punching operation, and can be avoided by clearing
the private-page attribute prior to invoking fallocate(PUNCH_HOLE).
This way, the page fault will cause an exit to user space.
The previous semantics, where fallocate() could be used to prepare
the pages in advance of running the guest, can be accessed with
KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY.
For now, accessing a page in one VM will attempt to call
kvm_arch_gmem_prepare() in all of those that have bound the guest_memfd.
Cleaning this up is left to a separate patch.

The up-to-date flag as is now is not too useful; it tells guest_memfd not
to overwrite the contents of a folio, but it doesn't say that the page
is ready to be mapped into the guest. For encrypted guests, mapping
a private page requires that the "preparation" phase has succeeded,
and at the same time the same page cannot be prepared twice.
So, ensure that folio_mark_uptodate() is only called on a prepared page. If
kvm_gmem_prepare_folio() or the post_populate callback fail, the folio
will not be marked up-to-date; it's not a problem to call clear_highpage()
again on such a page prior to the next preparation attempt.

The flags AS_UNMOVABLE and AS_INACCESSIBLE were both added just for guest_memfd;
AS_UNMOVABLE is already in existing versions of Linux, while AS_INACCESSIBLE was
acked for inclusion in 6.11.
But really, they are the same thing: only guest_memfd uses them, at least for
now, and guest_memfd pages are unmovable because they should not be
accessed by the CPU.
So merge them into one; use the AS_INACCESSIBLE name which is more comprehensive.
At the same time, this fixes an embarrassing bug where AS_INACCESSIBLE was used
as a bit mask, despite it being just a bit index.
The bug was mostly benign, because AS_INACCESSIBLE's bit representation (1010)
corresponded to setting AS_UNEVICTABLE (which is already set) and AS_ENOSPC
(except no async writes can happen on the guest_memfd). So the AS_INACCESSIBLE
flag simply had no effect.

During guest run-time, kvm_arch_gmem_prepare() is issued as needed to
prepare newly-allocated gmem pages prior to mapping them into the guest.
In the case of SEV-SNP, this mainly involves setting the pages to
private in the RMP table.
However, for the GPA ranges comprising the initial guest payload, which
are encrypted/measured prior to starting the guest, the gmem pages need
to be accessed prior to setting them to private in the RMP table so they
can be initialized with the userspace-provided data. Additionally, an
SNP firmware call is needed afterward to encrypt them in-place and
measure the contents into the guest's launch digest.
While it is possible to bypass the kvm_arch_gmem_prepare() hooks so that
this handling can be done in an open-coded/vendor-specific manner, this
may expose more gmem-internal state/dependencies to external callers
than necessary. Try to avoid this by implementing an interface that
tries to handle as much of the common functionality inside gmem as
possible, while also making it generic enough to potentially be
usable/extensible for TDX as well.

guest_memfd pages are generally expected to be in some arch-defined
initial state prior to using them for guest memory. For SEV-SNP this
initial state is 'private', or 'guest-owned', and requires additional
operations to move these pages into a 'private' state by updating the
corresponding entries the RMP table.
Allow for an arch-defined hook to handle updates of this sort, and go
ahead and implement one for x86 so KVM implementations like AMD SVM can
register a kvm_x86_ops callback to handle these updates for SEV-SNP
guests.
The preparation callback is always called when allocating/grabbing
folios via gmem, and it is up to the architecture to keep track of
whether or not the pages are already in the expected state (e.g. the RMP
table in the case of SEV-SNP).
In some cases, it is necessary to defer the preparation of the pages to
handle things like in-place encryption of initial guest memory payloads
before marking these pages as 'private'/'guest-owned'. Add an argument
(always true for now) to kvm_gmem_get_folio() that allows for the
preparation callback to be bypassed. To detect possible issues in
the way userspace initializes memory, it is only possible to add an
unprepared page if it is not already included in the filemap.

Because kvm_gmem_get_pfn() is called from the page fault path without
any of the slots_lock, filemap lock or mmu_lock taken, it is
possible for it to race with kvm_gmem_unbind(). This is not a
problem, as any PTE that is installed temporarily will be zapped
before the guest has the occasion to run.
However, it is not possible to have a complete unbind+bind
racing with the page fault, because deleting the memslot
will call synchronize_srcu_expedited() and wait for the
page fault to be resolved. Thus, we can still warn if
the file is there and is not the one we expect.

truncate_inode_pages_range() may attempt to zero pages before truncating
them, and this will occur before arch-specific invalidations can be
triggered via .invalidate_folio/.free_folio hooks via kvm_gmem_aops. For
AMD SEV-SNP this would result in an RMP #PF being generated by the
hardware, which is currently treated as fatal (and even if specifically
allowed for, would not result in anything other than garbage being
written to guest pages due to encryption). On Intel TDX this would also
result in undesirable behavior.
Set the AS_INACCESSIBLE flag to prevent the MM from attempting
unexpected accesses of this sort during operations like truncation.
This may also in some cases yield a decent performance improvement for
guest_memfd userspace implementations that hole-punch ranges immediately
after private->shared conversions via KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES, since
the current implementation of truncate_inode_pages_range() always ends
up zero'ing an entire 4K range if it is backing by a 2M folio.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"Generic:
- Use memdup_array_user() to harden against overflow.
- Unconditionally advertise KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL for all
architectures.
- Clean up Kconfigs that all KVM architectures were selecting
- New functionality around "guest_memfd", a new userspace API that
creates an anonymous file and returns a file descriptor that refers
to it. guest_memfd files are bound to their owning virtual machine,
cannot be mapped, read, or written by userspace, and cannot be
resized. guest_memfd files do however support PUNCH_HOLE, which can
be used to switch a memory area between guest_memfd and regular
anonymous memory.
- New ioctl KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES allowing userspace to specify
per-page attributes for a given page of guest memory; right now the
only attribute is whether the guest expects to access memory via
guest_memfd or not, which in Confidential SVMs backed by SEV-SNP,
TDX or ARM64 pKVM is checked by firmware or hypervisor that
guarantees confidentiality (AMD PSP, Intel TDX module, or EL2 in
the case of pKVM).
x86:
- Support for "software-protected VMs" that can use the new
guest_memfd and page attributes infrastructure. This is mostly
useful for testing, since there is no pKVM-like infrastructure to
provide a meaningfully reduced TCB.
- Fix a relatively benign off-by-one error when splitting huge pages
during CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG.
- Fix a bug where KVM could incorrectly test-and-clear dirty bits in
non-leaf TDP MMU SPTEs if a racing thread replaces a huge SPTE with
a non-huge SPTE.
- Use more generic lockdep assertions in paths that don't actually
care about whether the caller is a reader or a writer.
- let Xen guests opt out of having PV clock reported as "based on a
stable TSC", because some of them don't expect the "TSC stable" bit
(added to the pvclock ABI by KVM, but never set by Xen) to be set.
- Revert a bogus, made-up nested SVM consistency check for
TLB_CONTROL.
- Advertise flush-by-ASID support for nSVM unconditionally, as KVM
always flushes on nested transitions, i.e. always satisfies flush
requests. This allows running bleeding edge versions of VMware
Workstation on top of KVM.
- Sanity check that the CPU supports flush-by-ASID when enabling SEV
support.
- On AMD machines with vNMI, always rely on hardware instead of
intercepting IRET in some cases to detect unmasking of NMIs
- Support for virtualizing Linear Address Masking (LAM)
- Fix a variety of vPMU bugs where KVM fail to stop/reset counters
and other state prior to refreshing the vPMU model.
- Fix a double-overflow PMU bug by tracking emulated counter events
using a dedicated field instead of snapshotting the "previous"
counter. If the hardware PMC count triggers overflow that is
recognized in the same VM-Exit that KVM manually bumps an event
count, KVM would pend PMIs for both the hardware-triggered overflow
and for KVM-triggered overflow.
- Turn off KVM_WERROR by default for all configs so that it's not
inadvertantly enabled by non-KVM developers, which can be
problematic for subsystems that require no regressions for W=1
builds.
- Advertise all of the host-supported CPUID bits that enumerate
IA32_SPEC_CTRL "features".
- Don't force a masterclock update when a vCPU synchronizes to the
current TSC generation, as updating the masterclock can cause
kvmclock's time to "jump" unexpectedly, e.g. when userspace
hotplugs a pre-created vCPU.
- Use RIP-relative address to read kvm_rebooting in the VM-Enter
fault paths, partly as a super minor optimization, but mostly to
make KVM play nice with position independent executable builds.
- Guard KVM-on-HyperV's range-based TLB flush hooks with an #ifdef on
CONFIG_HYPERV as a minor optimization, and to self-document the
code.
- Add CONFIG_KVM_HYPERV to allow disabling KVM support for HyperV
"emulation" at build time.
ARM64:
- LPA2 support, adding 52bit IPA/PA capability for 4kB and 16kB base
granule sizes. Branch shared with the arm64 tree.
- Large Fine-Grained Trap rework, bringing some sanity to the
feature, although there is more to come. This comes with a prefix
branch shared with the arm64 tree.
- Some additional Nested Virtualization groundwork, mostly
introducing the NV2 VNCR support and retargetting the NV support to
that version of the architecture.
- A small set of vgic fixes and associated cleanups.
Loongarch:

With migration disabled, one function becomes unused:

Remove the #ifdef around the reference so that fallback_migrate_folio()
is never used. The gmem implementation of the hook is trivial; since
the gmem mapping is unmovable, the pages should not be migrated anyway.

Introduce several new KVM uAPIs to ultimately create a guest-first memory
subsystem within KVM, a.k.a. guest_memfd. Guest-first memory allows KVM
to provide features, enhancements, and optimizations that are kludgly
or outright impossible to implement in a generic memory subsystem.
The core KVM ioctl() for guest_memfd is KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD, which
similar to the generic memfd_create(), creates an anonymous file and
returns a file descriptor that refers to it. Again like "regular"
memfd files, guest_memfd files live in RAM, have volatile storage,
and are automatically released when the last reference is dropped.
The key differences between memfd files (and every other memory subystem)
is that guest_memfd files are bound to their owning virtual machine,
cannot be mapped, read, or written by userspace, and cannot be resized.
guest_memfd files do however support PUNCH_HOLE, which can be used to
convert a guest memory area between the shared and guest-private states.
A second KVM ioctl(), KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES, allows userspace to
specify attributes for a given page of guest memory. In the long term,
it will likely be extended to allow userspace to specify per-gfn RWX
protections, including allowing memory to be writable in the guest
without it also being writable in host userspace.
The immediate and driving use case for guest_memfd are Confidential
(CoCo) VMs, specifically AMD's SEV-SNP, Intel's TDX, and KVM's own pKVM.
For such use cases, being able to map memory into KVM guests without
requiring said memory to be mapped into the host is a hard requirement.
While SEV+ and TDX prevent untrusted software from reading guest private
data by encrypting guest memory, pKVM provides confidentiality and
integrity *without* relying on memory encryption. In addition, with
SEV-SNP and especially TDX, accessing guest private memory can be fatal
to the host, i.e. KVM must be prevent host userspace from accessing
guest memory irrespective of hardware behavior.
Long term, guest_memfd may be useful for use cases beyond CoCo VMs,
for example hardening userspace against unintentional accesses to guest
memory. As mentioned earlier, KVM's ABI uses userspace VMA protections to
define the allow guest protection (with an exception granted to mapping
guest memory executable), and similarly KVM currently requires the guest
mapping size to be a strict subset of the host userspace mapping size.
Decoupling the mappings sizes would allow userspace to precisely map
only what is needed and with the required permissions, without impacting
guest performance.
A guest-first memory subsystem also provides clearer line of sight to
things like a dedicated memory pool (for slice-of-hardware VMs) and
elimination of "struct page" (for offload setups where userspace _never_
needs to DMA from or into guest memory).
guest_memfd is the result of 3+ years of development and exploration;
taking on memory management responsibilities in KVM was not the first,
second, or even third choice for supporting CoCo VMs. But after many
failed attempts to avoid KVM-specific backing memory, and looking at
where things ended up, it is quite clear that of all approaches tried,
guest_memfd is the simplest, most robust, and most extensible, and the
right thing to do for KVM and the kernel at-large.
The "development cycle" for this version is going to be very short;
ideally, next week I will merge it as is in kvm/next, taking this through
the KVM tree for 6.8 immediately after the end of the merge window.
The series is still based on 6.6 (plus KVM changes for 6.7) so it
will require a small fixup for changes to get_file_rcu() introduced in
6.7 by commit 0ede61d8589c ("file: convert to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU").
The fixup will be done as part of the merge commit, and most of the text
above will become the commit message for the merge.
Pending post-merge work includes:
- hugepage support
- looking into using the restrictedmem framework for guest memory
- introducing a testing mechanism to poison memory, possibly using
the same memory attributes introduced here
- SNP and TDX support
There are two non-KVM patches buried in the middle of this series:
fs: Rename anon_inode_getfile_secure() and anon_inode_getfd_secure()
mm: Add AS_UNMOVABLE to mark mapping as completely unmovable
The first is small and mostly suggested-by Christian Brauner; the second
a bit less so but it was written by an mm person (Vlastimil Babka).

Introduce an ioctl(), KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD, to allow creating file-based
memory that is tied to a specific KVM virtual machine and whose primary
purpose is to serve guest memory.
A guest-first memory subsystem allows for optimizations and enhancements
that are kludgy or outright infeasible to implement/support in a generic
memory subsystem. With guest_memfd, guest protections and mapping sizes
are fully decoupled from host userspace mappings. E.g. KVM currently
doesn't support mapping memory as writable in the guest without it also
being writable in host userspace, as KVM's ABI uses VMA protections to
define the allow guest protection. Userspace can fudge this by
establishing two mappings, a writable mapping for the guest and readable
one for itself, but that’s suboptimal on multiple fronts.
Similarly, KVM currently requires the guest mapping size to be a strict
subset of the host userspace mapping size, e.g. KVM doesn’t support
creating a 1GiB guest mapping unless userspace also has a 1GiB guest
mapping. Decoupling the mappings sizes would allow userspace to precisely
map only what is needed without impacting guest performance, e.g. to
harden against unintentional accesses to guest memory.
Decoupling guest and userspace mappings may also allow for a cleaner
alternative to high-granularity mappings for HugeTLB, which has reached a
bit of an impasse and is unlikely to ever be merged.
A guest-first memory subsystem also provides clearer line of sight to
things like a dedicated memory pool (for slice-of-hardware VMs) and
elimination of "struct page" (for offload setups where userspace _never_
needs to mmap() guest memory).
More immediately, being able to map memory into KVM guests without mapping
said memory into the host is critical for Confidential VMs (CoCo VMs), the
initial use case for guest_memfd. While AMD's SEV and Intel's TDX prevent
untrusted software from reading guest private data by encrypting guest
memory with a key that isn't usable by the untrusted host, projects such
as Protected KVM (pKVM) provide confidentiality and integrity *without*
relying on memory encryption. And with SEV-SNP and TDX, accessing guest
private memory can be fatal to the host, i.e. KVM must be prevent host
userspace from accessing guest memory irrespective of hardware behavior.
Attempt #1 to support CoCo VMs was to add a VMA flag to mark memory as
being mappable only by KVM (or a similarly enlightened kernel subsystem).
That approach was abandoned largely due to it needing to play games with
PROT_NONE to prevent userspace from accessing guest memory.
Attempt #2 to was to usurp PG_hwpoison to prevent the host from mapping
guest private memory into userspace, but that approach failed to meet
several requirements for software-based CoCo VMs, e.g. pKVM, as the kernel
wouldn't easily be able to enforce a 1:1 page:guest association, let alone
a 1:1 pfn:gfn mapping. And using PG_hwpoison does not work for memory
that isn't backed by 'struct page', e.g. if devices gain support for
exposing encrypted memory regions to guests.
Attempt #3 was to extend the memfd() syscall and wrap shmem to provide
dedicated file-based guest memory. That approach made it as far as v10
before feedback from Hugh Dickins and Christian Brauner (and others) led
to it demise.
Hugh's objection was that piggybacking shmem made no sense for KVM's use
case as KVM didn't actually *want* the features provided by shmem. I.e.
KVM was using memfd() and shmem to avoid having to manage memory directly,
not because memfd() and shmem were the optimal solution, e.g. things like
read/write/mmap in shmem were dead weight.
Christian pointed out flaws with implementing a partial overlay (wrapping
only _some_ of shmem), e.g. poking at inode_operations or super_operations
would show shmem stuff, but address_space_operations and file_operations
would show KVM's overlay. Paraphrashing heavily, Christian suggested KVM
stop being lazy and create a proper API.
