mm: add mmap_action_map_kernel_pages[_full]()
A user can invoke mmap_action_map_kernel_pages() to specify that the mapping should map kernel pages starting from desc->start of a specified number of pages specified in an array.
In order to implement this, adjust mmap_action_prepare() to be able to return an error code, as it makes sense to assert that the specified parameters are valid as quickly as possible as well as updating the VMA flags to include VMA_MIXEDMAP_BIT as necessary.
This provides an mmap_prepare equivalent of vm_insert_pages(). We additionally update the existing vm_insert_pages() code to use range_in_vma() and add a new range_in_vma_desc() helper function for the mmap_prepare case, sharing the code between the two in range_is_subset().
We add both mmap_action_map_kernel_pages() and mmap_action_map_kernel_pages_full() to allow for both partial and full VMA mappings.
We update the documentation to reflect the new features.
Finally, we update the VMA tests accordingly to reflect the changes.

mm: add mmap_action_simple_ioremap()
Currently drivers use vm_iomap_memory() as a simple helper function for I/O remapping memory over a range starting at a specified physical address over a specified length.
In order to utilise this from mmap_prepare, separate out the core logic into __simple_ioremap_prep(), update vm_iomap_memory() to use it, and add simple_ioremap_prepare() to do the same with a VMA descriptor object.
We also add MMAP_SIMPLE_IO_REMAP and relevant fields to the struct mmap_action type to permit this operation also.
We use mmap_action_ioremap() to set up the actual I/O remap operation once we have checked and figured out the parameters, which makes simple_ioremap_prepare() easy to implement.
We then add mmap_action_simple_ioremap() to allow drivers to make use of this mode.
We update the mmap_prepare documentation to describe this mode. Finally, we update the VMA tests to reflect this change.

With
mm: add vm_ops->mapped hook
Previously, when a driver needed to do something like establish a reference count, it could do so in the mmap hook in the knowledge that the mapping would succeed.
With the introduction of f_op->mmap_prepare this is no longer the case, as it is invoked prior to actually establishing the mapping.
mmap_prepare is not appropriate for this kind of thing as it is called before any merge might take place, and after which an error might occur meaning resources could be leaked.
To take this into account, introduce a new vm_ops->mapped callback which is invoked when the VMA is first mapped (though notably - not when it is merged - which is correct and mirrors existing mmap/open/close behaviour).
We do better that vm_ops->open() here, as this callback can return an error, at which point the VMA will be unmapped.
Note that vm_ops->mapped() is invoked after any mmap action is complete (such as I/O remapping).
We intentionally do not expose the VMA at this point, exposing only the fields that could be used, and an output parameter in case the operation needs to update the vma->vm_private_data field.
In order to deal with stacked filesystems which invoke inner filesystem's mmap() invocations, add __compat_vma_mapped() and invoke it on vfs_mmap() (via compat_vma_mmap()) to ensure that the mapped callback is handled when an mmap() caller invokes a nested filesystem's mmap_prepare() callback.
Update the mmap_prepare documentation to describe the mapped hook and make it clear what its intended use is.
The vm_ops->mapped() call is handled by the mmap complete logic to ensure the same code paths are handled by both the compatibility and VMA layers.
Additionally, update VMA userland test headers to reflect the change.

mm: add documentation for the mmap_prepare file operation callback
This documentation makes it easier for a driver/file system implementer to correctly use this callback.
It covers the fundamentals, whilst intentionally leaving the less lovely possible actions one might take undocumented (for instance - the success_hook, error_hook fields in mmap_action).
The document also covers the new VMA flags implementation which is the only one which will work correctly with mmap_prepare.
