Simple one-shot poll through the io_submit() interface.  To poll for
a file descriptor the application should submit an iocb of type
IOCB_CMD_POLL.  It will poll the fd for the events specified in the
the first 32 bits of the aio_buf field of the iocb.

Unlike poll or epoll without EPOLLONESHOT this interface always works
in one shot mode, that is once the iocb is completed, it will have to be
resubmitted.

glibc uses a different defintion of sigset_t than the kernel does,
and the current version would pull in both.  To fix this just do not
expose the type at all - this somewhat mirrors pselect() where we
do not even have a type for the magic sigmask argument, but just
use pointer arithmetics.

The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely
unexplained.  They also caused a huge performance regression, because
"->poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down
to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect
calls.

Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the
performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the
"->get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer
to the poll head instead.  That gets rid of one of the new indirections.

But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted
for the regular case.  The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes
was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case
slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all
really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental
redesign.

This is the per-I/O equivalent of the ioprio_set system call.

When IOCB_FLAG_IOPRIO is set on the iocb aio_flags field, then we set the
newly added kiocb ki_ioprio field to the value in the iocb aio_reqprio field.

This patch depends on block: add ioprio_check_cap function.

This is the io_getevents equivalent of ppoll/pselect and allows to
properly mix signals and aio completions (especially with IOCB_CMD_POLL)
and atomically executes the following sequence:

	sigset_t origmask;

	pthread_sigmask(SIG_SETMASK, &sigmask, &origmask);
	ret = io_getevents(ctx, min_nr, nr, events, timeout);
	pthread_sigmask(SIG_SETMASK, &origmask, NULL);

Note that unlike many other signal related calls we do not pass a sigmask
size, as that would get us to 7 arguments, which aren't easily supported
by the syscall infrastructure.  It seems a lot less painful to just add a
new syscall variant in the unlikely case we're going to increase the
sigset size.

aio_rw_flags is introduced in struct iocb (using aio_reserved1) which will
carry the RWF_* flags. We cannot use aio_flags because they are not
checked for validity which may break existing applications.

Note, the only place RWF_HIPRI comes in effect is dio_await_one().
All the rest of the locations, aio code return -EIOCBQUEUED before the
checks for RWF_HIPRI.

In the UAPI header files, __BIG_ENDIAN and __LITTLE_ENDIAN must be
compared against __BYTE_ORDER in preprocessor conditionals where these are
exposed to userspace (that is they're not inside __KERNEL__ conditionals).

However, in the main kernel the norm is to check for
"defined(__XXX_ENDIAN)" rather than comparing against __BYTE_ORDER and
this has incorrectly leaked into the userspace headers.

The definition of PADDED() in linux/aio_abi.h is wrong in this way.  Note
that userspace will likely interpret this and thus the order of fields in
struct iocb incorrectly as the little-endian variant on big-endian
machines - depending on header inclusion order.

[!!!] NOTE [!!!]  This patch may adversely change the userspace API.  It might
be better to fix the ordering of aio_key and aio_reserved1 in struct iocb.

Rather than using "unsigned long" which is ABI-dependent, use
__kernel_ulong_t to define the externally visible type aio_context_t.

Note: the change in this form will cause unsigned long/unsigned int
differences on existing ABIs.  If that is unacceptable we may have to
define a new type.

This is an example about how to add eventfd support to the current KAIO code,
in order to enable KAIO to post readiness events to a pollable fd (hence
compatible with POSIX select/poll).  The KAIO code simply signals the eventfd
fd when events are ready, and this triggers a POLLIN in the fd.  This patch
uses a reserved for future use member of the struct iocb to pass an eventfd
file descriptor, that KAIO will use to post events every time a request
completes.  At that point, an aio_getevents() will return the completed result
to a struct io_event.  I made a quick test program to verify the patch, and it
runs fine here:

http://www.xmailserver.org/eventfd-aio-test.c

The test program uses poll(2), but it'd, of course, work with select and epoll
too.

This can allow to schedule both block I/O and other poll-able devices
requests, and wait for results using select/poll/epoll.  In a typical
scenario, an application would submit KAIO request using aio_submit(), and
will also use epoll_ctl() on the whole other class of devices (that with the
addition of signals, timers and user events, now it's pretty much complete),
and then would:

	epoll_wait(...);
	for_each_event {
		if (curr_event_is_kaiofd) {
			aio_getevents();
			dispatch_aio_events();
		} else {
			dispatch_epoll_event();
		}
	}

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
