virtio wants to read bitwise types from userspace using get_user. At the
moment this triggers sparse errors, since the value is passed through an
integer.
Fix that up using __force.

commit 8b38694a2d
vhost/net: virtio 1.0 byte swap
had this chunk:
- heads[headcount - 1].len += datalen;
+ heads[headcount - 1].len = cpu_to_vhost32(vq, len - datalen);
This adds datalen with the wrong sign, causing guest panics.

The reason we defer kfree until release function is because it's a
general rule for kobjects: kfree of the reference counter itself is only
legal in the release function.
Previous patch didn't make this clear, document this in code.

A struct device which has just been unregistered can live on past the
point at which a driver decides to drop it's initial reference to the
kobject gained on allocation.
This implies that when releasing a virtio device, we can't free a struct
virtio_device until the underlying struct device has been released,
which might not happen immediately on device_unregister().
Unfortunately, this is exactly what virtio pci does:
it has an empty release callback, and frees memory immediately
after unregistering the device.
This causes an easy to reproduce crash if CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE
it enabled.
To fix, free the memory only once we know the device is gone in the release
callback.

It turns out we need to add device-specific code

x86, um: actually mark system call tables readonly
um: Skip futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() test
Commit a074335a37 ("x86, um: Mark system call tables readonly") was
supposed to mark the sys_call_table in UML as RO by adding the const,
but it doesn't have the desired effect as it's nevertheless being placed
into the data section since __cacheline_aligned enforces sys_call_table
being placed into .data..cacheline_aligned instead. We need to use
the ____cacheline_aligned version instead to fix this issue.
Before:
$ nm -v arch/x86/um/sys_call_table_64.o | grep -1 "sys_call_table"

futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() does not work on UML because
it triggers a copy_from_user() in kernel context.
On UML copy_from_user() can only be used if the kernel was called
by a real user space process such that UML can use ptrace()
to fetch the value.

only affect users who have configured audit rules involving file

We'll revisit this issue with future kernels in an attempt to make
this suck less, but in the meantime I think this fix should go into
