This is merely a preparation for the upcoming compressed firmware
support and no functional changes.  It moves the code to handle the
paged buffer allocation and mapping out of fallback.c into the main
code, so that they can be used commonly.

<title>firmware: improve LSM/IMA security behaviour</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2472d64af2d3561954e2f05365a67692bb852f2a</id>
<content type='text'>
The firmware loader queries if LSM/IMA permits it to load firmware
via the sysfs fallback. Unfortunately, the code does the opposite:
it expressly permits sysfs fw loading if security_kernel_load_data(
LOADING_FIRMWARE) returns -EACCES. This happens because a
zero-on-success return value is cast to a bool that's true on success.

Fix the return value handling so we get the correct behaviour.

Fixes: 6e852651f28e ("firmware: add call to LSM hook before firmware sysfs fallback")

This is a minor optimization to use kvmalloc() variant for allocating
the page table for the SG-buffer.  They aren't so big in general, so
kmalloc() would fit often better.

Once after performing vmap() to map the S/G pages, our own page table
becomes superfluous since the pages can be released via vfree()
automatically.  Let's change the buffer release code and discard the
page table array for saving some memory.

<title>mm: provide a fallback for PAGE_KERNEL_RO for architectures</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a3266bd49c721e2e0a71f352d83713fbd60caadb</id>
<content type='text'>
Some architectures do not define certain PAGE_KERNEL_* flags, this is
either because:

 a) The way to implement some of these flags is *not yet ported*, or
 b) The architecture *has no way* to describe them

Over time we have accumulated a few PAGE_KERNEL_* fallback workarounds
for architectures in the kernel which do not define them using
*relatively safe* equivalents.  Move these scattered fallback hacks into
asm-generic.

We start off with PAGE_KERNEL_RO using PAGE_KERNEL as a fallback.  This
has been in place on the firmware loader for years.  Move the fallback
into the respective asm-generic header.

<title>treewide: Use array_size() in vmalloc()</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.shady.money/linux/commit/?id=42bc47b35320e0e587a88e437e18f80f9c5bcbb2'/>
<id>urn:sha1:42bc47b35320e0e587a88e437e18f80f9c5bcbb2</id>
<content type='text'>
The vmalloc() function has no 2-factor argument form, so multiplication
factors need to be wrapped in array_size(). This patch replaces cases of:

        vmalloc(a * b)

with:
        vmalloc(array_size(a, b))

as well as handling cases of:

        vmalloc(a * b * c)

with:

        vmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c))

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        vmalloc(4 * 1024)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

If we resort to using the sysfs fallback mechanism we don't print
the filename. This can be deceiving given we could have a series of
callers intertwined and it'd be unclear exactly for what firmware
this was meant for.

Additionally, although we don't currently use FW_OPT_NO_WARN when
dealing with the fallback mechanism, we will soon, so just respect
its use consistently.

And even if you *don't* want to print always on failure, you may
want to print when debugging so enable dynamic debug print when
FW_OPT_NO_WARN is used.
