This is another round of bug fixing and cleanup. This time the focus is on
the driver pattern to use mmu notifiers to monitor a VA range. This code
is lifted out of many drivers and hmm_mirror directly into the
mmu_notifier core and written using the best ideas from all the driver
implementations.
This removes many bugs from the drivers and has a very pleasing
diffstat. More drivers can still be converted, but that is for another
cycle.
- A shared branch with RDMA reworking the RDMA ODP implementation
- New mmu_interval_notifier API. This is focused on the use case of
monitoring a VA and simplifies the process for drivers
- A common seq-count locking scheme built into the mmu_interval_notifier
API usable by drivers that call get_user_pages() or hmm_range_fault()
with the VA range
- Conversion of mlx5 ODP, hfi1, radeon, nouveau, AMD GPU, and Xen GntDev
drivers to the new API. This deletes a lot of wonky driver code.
- Two improvements for hmm_range_fault(), from testing done by Ralph

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
