nfs: add missing selections of CONFIG_CRC32

nfs.ko, nfsd.ko, and lockd.ko all use crc32_le(), which is available
only when CONFIG_CRC32 is enabled. But the only NFS kconfig option that
selected CONFIG_CRC32 was CONFIG_NFS_DEBUG, which is client-specific and
did not actually guard the use of crc32_le() even on the client.

The code worked around this bug by only actually calling crc32_le() when
CONFIG_CRC32 is built-in, instead hard-coding '0' in other cases. This
avoided randconfig build errors, and in real kernels the fallback code
was unlikely to be reached since CONFIG_CRC32 is 'default y'. But, this
really needs to just be done properly, especially now that I'm planning
to update CONFIG_CRC32 to not be 'default y'.

Therefore, make CONFIG_NFS_FS, CONFIG_NFSD, and CONFIG_LOCKD select
CONFIG_CRC32. Then remove the fallback code that becomes unnecessary,
as well as the selection of CONFIG_CRC32 from CONFIG_NFS_DEBUG.

mm/sparse: allow for alternate vmemmap section init at boot

Add functions that are called just before the per-section memmap is
initialized and just before the memmap page structures are initialized.
They are called sparse_vmemmap_init_nid_early and
sparse_vmemmap_init_nid_late, respectively.

This allows for mm subsystems to add calls to initialize memmap and page
structures in a specific way, if using SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP. Specifically,
hugetlb can pre-HVO bootmem allocated pages that way, so that no time and
resources are wasted on allocating vmemmap pages, only to free them later
(and possibly unnecessarily running the system out of memory in the
process).

Refactor some code and export a few convenience functions for external
use.

In sparse_init_nid, skip any sections that are already initialized, e.g.
they have been initialized by sparse_vmemmap_init_nid_early already.

The hugetlb code to use these functions will be added in a later commit.

Export section_map_size, as any alternate memmap init code will want to
use it.

The internal config option to enable this is SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_PREINIT,
which is selected if an architecture-specific option,
ARCH_WANT_HUGETLB_VMEMMAP_PREINIT, is set. In the future, if other
subsystems want to do preinit too, they can do it in a similar fashion.

The internal config option is there because a section flag is used, and
the number of flags available is architecture-dependent (see mmzone.h).
Architecures can decide if there is room for the flag when enabling
options that select SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_PREINIT.

Fortunately, as of right now, all sparse vmemmap using architectures do
have room.

nfs_common: add NFS LOCALIO auxiliary protocol enablement

fs/nfs_common/nfslocalio.c provides interfaces that enable an NFS
client to generate a nonce (single-use UUID) and associated nfs_uuid_t
struct, register it with nfs_common for subsequent lookup and
verification by the NFS server and if matched the NFS server populates
members in the nfs_uuid_t struct.

nfs_common's nfs_uuids list is the basis for localio enablement, as
such it has members that point to nfsd memory for direct use by the
client (e.g. 'net' is the server's network namespace, through it the
client can access nn->nfsd_serv).

This commit also provides the base nfs_uuid_t interfaces to allow
proper net namespace refcounting for the LOCALIO use case.

CONFIG_NFS_LOCALIO controls the nfs_common, NFS server and NFS client
enablement for LOCALIO. If both NFS_FS=m and NFSD=m then
NFS_COMMON_LOCALIO_SUPPORT=m and nfs_localio.ko is built (and provides
nfs_common's LOCALIO support).

pidfs: remove config option

As Linus suggested this enables pidfs unconditionally. A key property to
retain is the ability to compare pidfds by inode number (cf. [1]).
That's extremely helpful just as comparing namespace file descriptors by
inode number is. They are used in a variety of scenarios where they need
to be compared, e.g., when receiving a pidfd via SO_PEERPIDFD from a
socket to trivially authenticate a the sender and various other
use-cases.

For 64bit systems this is pretty trivial to do. For 32bit it's slightly
more annoying as we discussed but we simply add a dumb ida based
allocator that gets used on 32bit. This gives the same guarantees about
inode numbers on 64bit without any overflow risk. Practically, we'll
never run into overflow issues because we're constrained by the number
of processes that can exist on 32bit and by the number of open files
that can exist on a 32bit system. On 64bit none of this matters and
things are very simple.

If 32bit also needs the uniqueness guarantee they can simply parse the
contents of /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. The uniqueness guarantees have a
variety of use-cases. One of the most obvious ones is that they will
make pidfiles (or "pidfdfiles", I guess) reliable as the unique
identifier can be placed into there that won't be reycled. Also a
frequent request.

Note, I took the chance and simplified path_from_stashed() even further.
Instead of passing the inode number explicitly to path_from_stashed() we
let the filesystem handle that internally. So path_from_stashed() ends
up even simpler than it is now. This is also a good solution allowing
the cleanup code to be clean and consistent between 32bit and 64bit. The
cleanup path in prepare_anon_dentry() is also switched around so we put
the inode before the dentry allocation. This means we only have to call
the cleanup handler for the filesystem's inode data once and can rely
->evict_inode() otherwise.

Aside from having to have a bit of extra code for 32bit it actually ends
up a nice cleanup for path_from_stashed() imho.

Tested on both 32 and 64bit including error injection.

pidfd: add pidfs

This moves pidfds from the anonymous inode infrastructure to a tiny
pseudo filesystem. This has been on my todo for quite a while as it will
unblock further work that we weren't able to do simply because of the
very justified limitations of anonymous inodes. Moving pidfds to a tiny
pseudo filesystem allows:

* statx() on pidfds becomes useful for the first time.
* pidfds can be compared simply via statx() and then comparing inode
numbers.
* pidfds have unique inode numbers for the system lifetime.
* struct pid is now stashed in inode->i_private instead of
file->private_data. This means it is now possible to introduce
concepts that operate on a process once all file descriptors have been
closed. A concrete example is kill-on-last-close.
* file->private_data is freed up for per-file options for pidfds.
* Each struct pid will refer to a different inode but the same struct
pid will refer to the same inode if it's opened multiple times. In
contrast to now where each struct pid refers to the same inode. Even
if we were to move to anon_inode_create_getfile() which creates new
inodes we'd still be associating the same struct pid with multiple
different inodes.

The tiny pseudo filesystem is not visible anywhere in userspace exactly
like e.g., pipefs and sockfs. There's no lookup, there's no complex
inode operations, nothing. Dentries and inodes are always deleted when
the last pidfd is closed.

We allocate a new inode for each struct pid and we reuse that inode for
all pidfds. We use iget_locked() to find that inode again based on the
inode number which isn't recycled. We allocate a new dentry for each
pidfd that uses the same inode. That is similar to anonymous inodes
which reuse the same inode for thousands of dentries. For pidfds we're
talking way less than that. There usually won't be a lot of concurrent
openers of the same struct pid. They can probably often be counted on
two hands. I know that systemd does use separate pidfd for the same
struct pid for various complex process tracking issues. So I think with
that things actually become way simpler. Especially because we don't
have to care about lookup. Dentries and inodes continue to be always
deleted.

The code is entirely optional and fairly small. If it's not selected we
fallback to anonymous inodes. Heavily inspired by nsfs which uses a
similar stashing mechanism just for namespaces.

arch: Remove Itanium (IA-64) architecture

The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals
that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX
or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to
enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether
things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some
distro packages that are rarely used in practice.

None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support
any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as
'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers
that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that
matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture
upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel
firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2
reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original
architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it
deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as
Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have
dropped support years ago.

While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common
good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the
Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the
fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on
Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in
the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64
could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is
actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case.

There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is
generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64
but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would
like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue
code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64
be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead
of keeping it supported is real.

So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely.
This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5],
which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known
good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow
once the kernel support is removed.

With DAX vmemmap optimization we don't require such pte updates and
architectures can enable DAX vmemmap optimization while having hugetlb
vmemmap optimization disabled. Hence split DAX optimization support into
a different config.

s390, loongarch and riscv don't have devdax support. So the DAX config is

The memfd_create() syscall, enabled by CONFIG_MEMFD_CREATE, is useful on
its own even when not required by CONFIG_TMPFS or CONFIG_HUGETLBFS.

Split it into its own proper bool option that can be enabled by users.

Move that option into mm/ where the code itself also lies. Also add
"select" statements to CONFIG_TMPFS and CONFIG_HUGETLBFS so they
automatically enable CONFIG_MEMFD_CREATE as before.

tmpfs,xattr: enable limited user extended attributes

Enable "user." extended attributes on tmpfs, limiting them by tracking
the space they occupy, and deducting that space from the limited ispace
(unless tmpfs mounted with nr_inodes=0 to leave that ispace unlimited).

tmpfs inodes and simple xattrs are both unswappable, and have to be in
lowmem on a 32-bit highmem kernel: so the ispace limit is appropriate
for xattrs, without any need for a further mount option.

Add simple_xattr_space() to give approximate but deterministic estimate
of the space taken up by each xattr: with simple_xattrs_free() outputting
the space freed if required (but kernfs and even some tmpfs usages do not
require that, so don't waste time on strlen'ing if not needed).

Security and trusted xattrs were already supported: for consistency and
simplicity, account them from the same pool; though there's a small risk
that a tmpfs with enough space before would now be considered too small.

When extended attributes are used, "df -i" does show more IUsed and less
IFree than can be explained by the inodes: document that (manpage later).

xfstests tests/generic which were not run on tmpfs before but now pass:
020 037 062 070 077 097 103 117 337 377 454 486 523 533 611 618 728
with no new failures.

fs: add CONFIG_BUFFER_HEAD

Add a new config option that controls building the buffer_head code, and
select it from all file systems and stacking drivers that need it.

For the block device nodes and alternative iomap based buffered I/O path
is provided when buffer_head support is not enabled, and iomap needs a
a small tweak to define the IOMAP_F_BUFFER_HEAD flag to 0 to not call
into the buffer_head code when it doesn't exist.

Otherwise this is just Kconfig and ifdef changes.
