Toshi noticed that the new support for a region-level badblocks missed
the case where errors are cleared due to BTT I/O.

An initial attempt to fix this ran into a "sleeping while atomic"
warning due to taking the nvdimm_bus_lock() in the BTT I/O path to
satisfy the locking requirements of __nvdimm_bus_badblocks_clear().
However, that lock is not needed since we are not acting on any data that
is subject to change under that lock. The badblocks instance has its own
internal lock to handle mutations of the error list.

So, in order to make it clear that we are just acting on region devices,
rename __nvdimm_bus_badblocks_clear() to nvdimm_clear_badblocks_regions().
Eliminate the lock and consolidate all support routines for the new
nvdimm_account_cleared_poison() in drivers/nvdimm/bus.c. Finally, to the
opportunity to cleanup to some unnecessary casts, make the calling
convention of nvdimm_clear_badblocks_regions() clearer by replacing struct
resource with the minimal struct clear_badblocks_context, and use the
DEVICE_ATTR macro.

A spinlock is introduced to protect the poison list. This allows us to not
having to acquire the reconfig_mutex for touching the poison list. The
add_poison() function has been broken out into two helper functions. One to
allocate the poison entry and the other to apppend the entry. This allows us
to unlock the poison_lock in non-I/O path and continue to be able to allocate
the poison entry with GFP_KERNEL. We will use GFP_NOWAIT in the I/O path in

Given ambiguities in the ACPI 6.1 definition of the "Output (Size)"
field of the ARS (Address Range Scrub) Status command, a firmware
implementation may in practice return 0, 4, or 8 to indicate that there
is no output payload to process.

The specification states "Size of Output Buffer in bytes, including this
field.". However, 'Output Buffer' is also the name of the entire
payload, and earlier in the specification it states "Max Query ARS
Status Output Buffer Size: Maximum size of buffer (including the Status
and Extended Status fields)".

Without this fix if the BIOS happens to return 0 it causes memory
corruption as evidenced by this result from the acpi_nfit_ctl() unit
test.

nvdimm_clear_poison cleared the user-visible badblocks, and sent
commands to the NVDIMM to clear the areas marked as 'poison', but it
neglected to clear the same areas from the internal poison_list which is
used to marshal ARS results before sorting them by namespace. As a
result, once on-demand ARS functionality was added:

37b137ff nfit, libnvdimm: allow an ARS scrub to be triggered on demand

A scrub triggered from either sysfs or an MCE was found to be adding
stale entries that had been cleared from gendisk->badblocks, but were
still present in nvdimm_bus->poison_list. Additionally, the stale entries
could be triggered into producing stale disk->badblocks by simply disabling
and re-enabling the namespace or region.

This adds the missing step of clearing poison_list entries when clearing
poison, so that it is always in sync with badblocks.

A recent effort to add a new nvdimm bus provider attribute highlighted a
race between interrogating nvdimm_bus->nd_desc and nvdimm_bus tear down.
The typical way to handle these races is to take the device_lock() in
the attribute method and validate that the device is still active.  In
order for a device to be 'active' it needs to be associated with a
driver.  So, we create the small boilerplate for a driver and register
nvdimm_bus devices on the 'nvdimm_bus_type' bus.

A result of this change is that ndbusX devices now appear under
/sys/bus/nd/devices.  In fact this makes /sys/class/nd somewhat
redundant, but removing that will need to take a long deprecation period
given its use by ndctl binaries in the field.

This change naturally pulls code from drivers/nvdimm/core.c to
drivers/nvdimm/bus.c, so it is a nice code organization clean-up as
well.

There are currently 4 known similar but incompatible definitions of the
command sets that can be sent to an NVDIMM through ACPI.  It is also
clear that future platform generations (ACPI or not) will continue to
revise and extend the DIMM command set as new devices and use cases
arrive.

It is obviously untenable to continue to proliferate divergence
of these command definitions, and to that end a standardization process
has begun to provide for a unified specification.  However, that leaves a
problem about what to do with this first generation where vendors are
already shipping divergence.

The Linux kernel can support these initial diverged platforms without
giving platform-firmware free reign to continue to diverge and compound
kernel maintenance overhead.  The kernel implementation can encourage
standardization in two ways:

1/ Require that any function code that userspace wants to send be
   explicitly white-listed in the implementation.  For ACPI this means
   function codes marked as supported by acpi_check_dsm() may
   only be invoked if they appear in the white-list.  A function must be
   publicly documented before it is added to the white-list.

2/ The above restrictions can be trivially bypassed by using the
   "vendor-specific" payload command.  However, since vendor-specific
   commands are by definition not publicly documented and have the
   potential to corrupt the kernel's view of the dimm state, we provide a
   toggle to disable vendor-specific operations.  Enabling undefined
   behavior is a policy decision that can be made by the platform owner
   and encourages firmware implementations to choose public over
   private command implementations.

Add support of sysfs 'numa_node' to I/O-related NVDIMM devices

An example of numa_node values on a 2-socket system with a single
NVDIMM range on each socket is shown below.
  /sys/bus/nd/devices
  |-- btt0.0/numa_node:0
  |-- btt1.0/numa_node:1
  |-- btt1.1/numa_node:1
  |-- namespace0.0/numa_node:0
  |-- namespace1.0/numa_node:1
  |-- region0/numa_node:0
  |-- region1/numa_node:1

These numa_node files are then linked under the block class of
their device names.
  /sys/class/block/pmem0/device/numa_node:0
  /sys/class/block/pmem1s/device/numa_node:1

This enables numactl(8) to accept 'block:' and 'file:' paths of

ACPI NFIT table has System Physical Address Range Structure entries that
describe a proximity ID of each range when ACPI_NFIT_PROXIMITY_VALID is
set in the flags.

Change acpi_nfit_register_region() to map a proximity ID to its node ID,
and set it to a new numa_node field of nd_region_desc, which is then
conveyed to the nd_region device.

The device core arranges for btt and namespace devices to inherit their
node from their parent region.

Upon detection of an unarmed dimm in a region, arrange for descendant
BTT, PMEM, or BLK instances to be read-only.  A dimm is primarily marked
"unarmed" via flags passed by platform firmware (NFIT).

The flags in the NFIT memory device sub-structure indicate the state of
the data on the nvdimm relative to its energy source or last "flush to
persistence".  For the most part there is nothing the driver can do but
advertise the state of these flags in sysfs and emit a message if
firmware indicates that the contents of the device may be corrupted.
However, for the case of ACPI_NFIT_MEM_ARMED, the driver can arrange for
the block devices incorporating that nvdimm to be marked read-only.
This is a safe default as the data is still available and new writes are
held off until the administrator either forces read-write mode, or the
energy source becomes armed.

A 'read_only' attribute is added to REGION devices to allow for
overriding the default read-only policy of all descendant block devices.

NVDIMM namespaces, in addition to accepting "struct bio" based requests,
also have the capability to perform byte-aligned accesses.  By default
only the bio/block interface is used.  However, if another driver can
make effective use of the byte-aligned capability it can claim namespace
interface and use the byte-aligned ->rw_bytes() interface.

The BTT driver is the initial first consumer of this mechanism to allow
adding atomic sector update semantics to a pmem or blk namespace.  This
patch is the sysfs infrastructure to allow configuring a BTT instance
for a namespace.  Enabling that BTT and performing i/o is in a
subsequent patch.

After 'uuid', 'size', 'sector_size', and optionally 'alt_name' have been
set to valid values the labels on the dimm can be updated.  The
difference with the pmem case is that blk namespaces are limited to one
dimm and can cover discontiguous ranges in dpa space.

Also, after allocating label slots, it is useful for userspace to know
how many slots are left.  Export this information in sysfs.

A complete label set is a PMEM-label per-dimm per-interleave-set where
all the UUIDs match and the interleave set cookie matches the hosting
interleave set.

Present sysfs attributes for manipulation of a PMEM-namespace's
'alt_name', 'uuid', and 'size' attributes.  A later patch will make
these settings persistent by writing back the label.

Note that PMEM allocations grow forwards from the start of an interleave
set (lowest dimm-physical-address (DPA)).  BLK-namespaces that alias
with a PMEM interleave set will grow allocations backward from the
highest DPA.

On platforms that have firmware support for reading/writing per-dimm
label space, a portion of the dimm may be accessible via an interleave
set PMEM mapping in addition to the dimm's BLK (block-data-window
aperture(s)) interface.  A label, stored in a "configuration data
region" on the dimm, disambiguates which dimm addresses are accessed
through which exclusive interface.

Add infrastructure that allows the kernel to block modifications to a
label in the set while any member dimm is active.  Note that this is
meant only for enforcing "no modifications of active labels" via the
coarse ioctl command.  Adding/deleting namespaces from an active
interleave set is always possible via sysfs.

Another aspect of tracking interleave sets is tracking their integrity
when DIMMs in a set are physically re-ordered.  For this purpose we
generate an "interleave-set cookie" that can be recorded in a label and
validated against the current configuration.  It is the bus provider
implementation's responsibility to calculate the interleave set cookie
and attach it to a given region.

The libnvdimm region driver is an intermediary driver that translates
non-volatile "region"s into "namespace" sub-devices that are surfaced by
persistent memory block-device drivers (PMEM and BLK).

ACPI 6 introduces the concept that a given nvdimm may simultaneously
offer multiple access modes to its media through direct PMEM load/store
access, or windowed BLK mode.  Existing nvdimms mostly implement a PMEM
interface, some offer a BLK-like mode, but never both as ACPI 6 defines.
If an nvdimm is single interfaced, then there is no need for dimm
metadata labels.  For these devices we can take the region boundaries
directly to create a child namespace device (nd_namespace_io).
