Subject: [PATCH 8/8] vfio/mdev: Improve the create/remove sequence

There are five problems with current code structure.
1. mdev device is placed on the mdev bus before it is created in the
vendor driver. Once a device is placed on the mdev bus without creating
its supporting underlying vendor device, an open() can get triggered by
userspace on partially initialized device.
Below ladder diagram highlight it.

      cpu-0                                       cpu-1
      -----                                       -----
   create_store()
     mdev_create_device()
       device_register()
          ...
         vfio_mdev_probe()
         ...creates char device
                                        vfio_mdev_open()
                                          parent->ops->open(mdev)
                                            vfio_ap_mdev_open()
                                              matrix_mdev = NULL
        [...]
        parent->ops->create()
          vfio_ap_mdev_create()
            mdev_set_drvdata(mdev, matrix_mdev);
            /* Valid pointer set above */

2. Current creation sequence is,
   parent->ops_create()
   groups_register()

Remove sequence is,
   parent->ops->remove()
   groups_unregister()
However, remove sequence should be exact mirror of creation sequence.
Once this is achieved, all users of the mdev will be terminated first
before removing underlying vendor device.
(Follow standard linux driver model).
At that point vendor's remove() ops shouldn't failed because device is
taken off the bus that should terminate the users.

3. Additionally any new mdev driver that wants to work on mdev device
during probe() routine registered using mdev_register_driver() needs to
get stable mdev structure.

4. In following sequence, child devices created while removing mdev parent
device can be left out, or it may lead to race of removing half
initialized child mdev devices.

issue-1:
--------
       cpu-0                         cpu-1

                                        mdev_device_remove_cb()
                                            mdev_device_remove()
create_store()
  mdev_device_create()                   [...]
       device_register()
                                  parent_remove_sysfs_files()
                                  /* BUG: device added by cpu-0
                                   * whose parent is getting removed.
                                   */

issue-2:
--------
       cpu-0                         cpu-1
       -----                         -----

       [...]                      mdev_unregister_device()
                                     device_for_each_child()
                                        mdev_device_remove_cb()
                                            mdev_device_remove()

       mdev_create_sysfs_files()
       /* BUG: create is adding
        * sysfs files for a device
        * which is undergoing removal.
        */
                                 parent_remove_sysfs_files()

5. Below crash is observed when user initiated remove is in progress
and mdev_unregister_driver() completes parent unregistration.

       cpu-0                         cpu-1
       -----                         -----
remove_store()
   mdev_device_remove()
   active = false;
                                  mdev_unregister_device()
                                    remove type
   [...]
   mdev_remove_ops() crashes.

This is similar race like create() racing with mdev_unregister_device().

Therefore, mdev core is improved in following ways to overcome above
issues.

1. Before placing mdev devices on the bus, perform vendor drivers
creation which supports the mdev creation.
This ensures that mdev specific all necessary fields are initialized
before a given mdev can be accessed by bus driver.

2. During remove flow, first remove the device from the bus. This
ensures that any bus specific devices and data is cleared.
Once device is taken of the mdev bus, perform remove() of mdev from the
vendor driver.

3. Linux core device model provides way to register and auto unregister
the device sysfs attribute groups at dev->groups.
Make use of this groups to let core create the groups and simplify code
to avoid explicit groups creation and removal.

4. Wait for any ongoing mdev create() and remove() to finish before
unregistering parent device using srcu. This continues to allow multiple
create and remove to progress in parallel. At the same time guard parent
removal while parent is being access by create() and remove callbacks.
