Right now for kfifo_*_user it's not easily possible to distingush between
a user copy failing and the FIFO not containing enough data. The problem
is that both conditions are multiplexed into the same return code.
Avoid this by moving the "copy length" into a separate output parameter
and only return 0/-EFAULT in the main return value.
I didn't fully adapt the weird "record" variants, those seem
to be unused anyways and were rather messy (should they be just removed?)
I would appreciate some double checking if I did all the conversions
correctly.

commit 5300990c03 had stepped on a rather
nasty mess: definitions of ACC_MODE used to be different. Fixed the
resulting breakage, converting them to variant that takes O_... value;
all callers have that and it actually simplifies life (see tomoyo part
of changes).

This is needed for a bugfix in the vmwgfx driver.
Drivers may have GPU bindings on buffers that core TTM is not aware of,
and TTM may view those buffers as ordinary system memory buffers.
Add a notifier to such drivers when TTM is about to move the buffer
contents out to swappable memory. The driver must then release any
private GPU bindings on those buffers.

(Commit 7cb777a3d7 (mtd: add ARM pismo support)
intended to add this, but seems only to have patched the Makefile without
touching Kconfig or providing any code...)
The following patch adds support for PISMO modules found on ARM Ltd
development platforms. These are MTD modules, and can have a
selection of SRAM, flash or DOC devices as described by an on-board
I2C EEPROM.
We support SRAM and NOR flash devices only by registering appropriate
conventional MTD platform devices as children of the 'pismo' device.

There are two copies of list_sort() in the tree already, one in the DRM
code, another in ubifs. Now XFS needs this as well. Create a generic
list_sort() function from the ubifs version and convert existing users
to it so we don't end up with yet another copy in the tree.

The list macros use LIST_POISON1 and LIST_POISON2 as undereferencable
pointers in order to trap erronous use of freed list_heads. Unfortunately
userspace can arrange for those pointers to actually be dereferencable,
potentially turning an oops to an expolit.
To avoid this allow architectures (currently x86_64 only) to override
the default values for these pointers with truly-undereferencable values.
This is easy on x86_64 as the virtual address space is large and contains
areas that cannot be mapped.
Other 64-bit architectures will likely find similar unmapped ranges.
[ingo: switch to 0xdead000000000000 as the unmapped area]
[ingo: add comments, cleanup]
