fb_defio: do not use deprecated page->mapping, index fields

With the introduction of mapping_wrprotect_range() there is no need to use
folio_mkclean() in order to write-protect mappings of frame buffer pages,
and therefore no need to inappropriately set kernel-allocated page->index,
mapping fields to permit this operation.

Instead, store the pointer to the page cache object for the mapped driver
in the fb_deferred_io object, and use the already stored page offset from
the pageref object to look up mappings in order to write-protect them.

This is justified, as for the page objects to store a mapping pointer at
the point of assignment of pages, they must all reference the same
underlying address_space object. Since the life time of the pagerefs is
also the lifetime of the fb_deferred_io object, storing the pointer here
makes sense.

This eliminates the need for all of the logic around setting and
maintaining page->index,mapping which we remove.

This eliminates the use of folio_mkclean() entirely but otherwise should
have no functional change.

Clean up the pageref state as part of the lastclose helper. This
only requires to clear the page's mapping field. The pageref and
page can stay in place for the next opened instance of the frame-

With the change in the clean-up logic, there's no further need

uses the existing pagerefs in its look-up table. It also avoids
using smem_len, which some driver might not set correctly.

fbdev: fix incorrect address computation in deferred IO

With deferred IO enabled, a page fault happens when data is written to the
framebuffer device. Then driver determines which page is being updated by
calculating the offset of the written virtual address within the virtual
memory area, and uses this offset to get the updated page within the
internal buffer. This page is later copied to hardware (thus the name
"deferred IO").

This offset calculation is only correct if the virtual memory area is
mapped to the beginning of the internal buffer. Otherwise this is wrong.
For example, if users do:
mmap(ptr, 4096, PROT_WRITE, MAP_FIXED | MAP_SHARED, fd, 0xff000);

Then the virtual memory area will mapped at offset 0xff000 within the
internal buffer. This offset 0xff000 is not accounted for, and wrong page
is updated.

Correct the calculation by using vmf->pgoff instead. With this change, the
variable "offset" will no longer hold the exact offset value, but it is
rounded down to multiples of PAGE_SIZE. But this is still correct, because
this variable is only used to calculate the page offset.

fbdev: flush deferred IO before closing

When framebuffer gets closed, the queued deferred IO gets cancelled. This
can cause some last display data to vanish. This is problematic for users
who send a still image to the framebuffer, then close the file: the image
may never appear.

To ensure none of display data get lost, flush the queued deferred IO
first before closing.

Another possible solution is to delete the cancel_delayed_work_sync()
instead. The difference is that the display may appear some time after
closing. However, the clearing of page mapping after this needs to be
removed too, because the page mapping is used by the deferred work. It is
not completely obvious whether it is okay to not clear the page mapping.
For a patch intended for stable trees, go with the simple and obvious
solution.

fbdev: flush deferred work in fb_deferred_io_fsync()

The driver's fsync() is supposed to flush any pending operation to
hardware. It is implemented in this driver by cancelling the queued
deferred IO first, then schedule it for "immediate execution" by calling
schedule_delayed_work() again with delay=0. However, setting delay=0
only means the work is scheduled immediately, it does not mean the work
is executed immediately. There is no guarantee that the work is finished
after schedule_delayed_work() returns. After this driver's fsync()
returns, there can still be pending work. Furthermore, if close() is
called by users immediately after fsync(), the pending work gets
cancelled and fsync() may do nothing.

To ensure that the deferred IO completes, use flush_delayed_work()
instead. Write operations to this driver either write to the device
directly, or invoke schedule_delayed_work(); so by flushing the
workqueue, it can be guaranteed that all previous writes make it to the
device.

fbdev: Push pgprot_decrypted() into mmap implementations

If a driver sets struct fb_ops.fb_mmap, the fbdev core automatically
calls pgprot_decrypted(). But the default fb_mmap code doesn't handle
pgprot_decrypted().

Move the call to pgprot_decrypted() into each drivers' fb_mmap function.
This only concerns fb_mmap functions for system and DMA memory. For
I/O memory, which is the default case, nothing changes. The fb_mmap
for I/O-memory can later be moved into a helper as well.

DRM's fbdev emulation handles pgprot_decrypted() internally via the
Prime helpers. Fbdev doesn't have to do anything in this case. In
cases where DRM uses deferred I/O, this patch updates fb_mmap correctly.

fbdev: Fix incorrect page mapping clearance at fb_deferred_io_release()

The recent fix for the deferred I/O by the commit
3efc61d95259 ("fbdev: Fix invalid page access after closing deferred I/O devices")
caused a regression when the same fb device is opened/closed while
it's being used. It resulted in a frozen screen even if something
is redrawn there after the close. The breakage is because the patch
was made under a wrong assumption of a single open; in the current
code, fb_deferred_io_release() cleans up the page mapping of the
pageref list and it calls cancel_delayed_work_sync() unconditionally,
where both are no correct behavior for multiple opens.

This patch adds a refcount for the opens of the device, and applies
the cleanup only when all files get closed.

As both fb_deferred_io_open() and _close() are called always in the
fb_info lock (mutex), it's safe to use the normal int for the
refcounting.

Also, a useless BUG_ON() is dropped.

drm/fb-helper: Schedule deferred-I/O worker after writing to framebuffer

Schedule the deferred-I/O worker instead of the damage worker after
writing to the fbdev framebuffer. The deferred-I/O worker then performs
the dirty-fb update. The fbdev emulation will initialize deferred I/O
for all drivers that require damage updates. It is therefore a valid
assumption that the deferred-I/O worker is present.

It would be possible to perform the damage handling directly from within
the write operation. But doing this could increase the overhead of the
write or interfere with a concurrently scheduled deferred-I/O worker.
Instead, scheduling the deferred-I/O worker with its regular delay of
50 ms removes load off the write operation and allows the deferred-I/O
worker to handle multiple write operations that arrived during the delay
time window.

fbdev: Rename pagelist to pagereflist for deferred I/O

Rename various instances of pagelist to pagereflist. The list now
stores pageref structures, so the new name is more appropriate.

In their write-back helpers, several fbdev drivers refer to the
pageref list in struct fb_deferred_io instead of using the one
supplied as argument to the function. Convert them over to the
supplied one. It's the same instance, so no change of behavior
occurs.

fbdev: Track deferred-I/O pages in pageref struct

Store the per-page state for fbdev's deferred I/O in struct
fb_deferred_io_pageref. Maintain a list of pagerefs for the pages
that have to be written back to video memory. Update all affected
drivers.

As with pages before, fbdev acquires a pageref when an mmaped page
of the framebuffer is being written to. It holds the pageref in a
list of all currently written pagerefs until it flushes the written
pages to video memory. Writeback occurs periodically. After writeback
fbdev releases all pagerefs and builds up a new dirty list until the
next writeback occurs.

Using pagerefs has a number of benefits.

For pages of the framebuffer, the deferred I/O code used struct
page.lru as an entry into the list of dirty pages. The lru field is
owned by the page cache, which makes deferred I/O incompatible with
some memory pages (e.g., most notably DRM's GEM SHMEM allocator).
struct fb_deferred_io_pageref now provides an entry into a list of
dirty framebuffer pages, freeing lru for use with the page cache.

Drivers also assumed that struct page.index is the page offset into
the framebuffer. This is not true for DRM buffers, which are located
at various offset within a mapped area. struct fb_deferred_io_pageref
explicitly stores an offset into the framebuffer. struct page.index
is now only the page offset into the mapped area.

These changes will allow DRM to use fbdev deferred I/O without an
intermediate shadow buffer.

v3:
* use pageref->offset for sorting
* fix grammar in comment
v2:
* minor fixes in commit message

fbdev: Put mmap for deferred I/O into drivers

The fbdev mmap function fb_mmap() unconditionally overrides the
driver's implementation if deferred I/O has been activated. This
makes it hard to implement mmap with anything but a vmalloc()'ed
software buffer. That is specifically a problem for DRM, where
video memory is maintained by a memory manager.

Leave the mmap handling to drivers and expect them to call the
helper for deferred I/O by thmeselves.

v4:
* unlock mm_lock in fb_mmap() error path (Dan)
v3:
* fix warning if fb_mmap is missing (kernel test robot)
v2:
* print a helpful error message if the defio setup is
incorrect (Javier)

Figure out the race happens when one process is adding &page->lru into
the pagelist tail in fb_deferred_io_mkwrite(), another process is
re-initializing the same &page->lru in fb_deferred_io_fault(), which is
not protected by the lock.

This fix is to init all the page lists one time during initialization,
it not only fixes the list corruption, but also avoids INIT_LIST_HEAD()
redundantly.
