userspace programs using cxl currently have to use two strategies for dealing with MMIO errors simultaneously. They have to check every read for a return of all Fs in case the adapter has gone away and the kernel has not yet noticed, and they have to deal with SIGBUS in case the kernel has already noticed, invalidated the mapping and marked the context as failed. In order to simplify things, this patch adds an alternative approach where the kernel will return a page filled with Fs instead of delivering a SIGBUS. This allows userspace to only need to deal with one of these two error paths, and is intended for use in libraries that use cxl transparently and may not be able to safely install a signal handler. This approach will only work if certain constraints are met. Namely, if the application is both reading and writing to an address in the problem state area it cannot assume that a non-FF read is OK, as it may just be reading out a value it has previously written. Further - since only one page is used per context a write to a given offset would be visible when reading the same offset from a different page in the mapping (this only applies within a single context, not between contexts). An application could deal with this by e.g. making sure it also reads from a read-only offset after any reads to a read/write offset. Due to these constraints, this functionality must be explicitly requested by userspace when starting the context by passing in the CXL_START_WORK_ERR_FF flag.
