mm/nommu: factor out check for NOMMU shared mappings into is_nommu_shared_mapping()

Patch series "mm/nommu: don't use VM_MAYSHARE for MAP_PRIVATE mappings".

Trying to reduce the confusion around VM_SHARED and VM_MAYSHARE first
requires !CONFIG_MMU to stop using VM_MAYSHARE for MAP_PRIVATE mappings.
CONFIG_MMU only sets VM_MAYSHARE for MAP_SHARED mappings.

This paves the way for further VM_MAYSHARE and VM_SHARED cleanups: for
example, renaming VM_MAYSHARED to VM_MAP_SHARED to make it cleaner what is
actually means.

Let's first get the weird case out of the way and not use VM_MAYSHARE in
MAP_PRIVATE mappings, using a new VM_MAYOVERLAY flag instead.


This patch (of 3):

We want to stop using VM_MAYSHARE in private mappings to pave the way for
clarifying the semantics of VM_MAYSHARE vs. VM_SHARED and reduce the
confusion. While CONFIG_MMU uses VM_MAYSHARE to represent MAP_SHARED,
!CONFIG_MMU also sets VM_MAYSHARE for selected R/O private file mappings
that are an effective overlay of a file mapping.

Let's factor out all relevant VM_MAYSHARE checks in !CONFIG_MMU code into
is_nommu_shared_mapping() first.

Note that whenever VM_SHARED is set, VM_MAYSHARE must be set as well
(unless there is a serious BUG). So there is not need to test for
VM_SHARED manually.

No functional change intended.

make new_sync_{read,write}() static

All places outside of core VFS that checked ->read and ->write for being NULL or
called the methods directly are gone now, so NULL {read,write} with non-NULL
{read,write}_iter will do the right thing in all cases.

fs: introduce f_op->mmap_capabilities for nommu mmap support

Since "BDI: Provide backing device capability information [try #3]" the
backing_dev_info structure also provides flags for the kind of mmap
operation available in a nommu environment, which is entirely unrelated
to it's original purpose.

Introduce a new nommu-only file operation to provide this information to
the nommu mmap code instead. Splitting this from the backing_dev_info
structure allows to remove lots of backing_dev_info instance that aren't
otherwise needed, and entirely gets rid of the concept of providing a
backing_dev_info for a character device. It also removes the need for
the mtd_inodefs filesystem.

romfs: fix nommu map length to keep inside filesystem

Checks introduced in commit 4991e7251 ("romfs: do not use
mtd->get_unmapped_area directly") re-introduce problems fixed in the earlier
commit 2b4b2482e ("romfs: fix romfs_get_unmapped_area() argument check").

If a flat binary app is located at the end of a romfs, its page aligned
length may be outside of the romfs filesystem. The flat binary loader, via
nommu do_mmap_pgoff(), page aligns the length it is mmaping. So simple
offset+size checks will fail - returning EINVAL.

We can truncate the length to keep it inside the romfs filesystem, and that
also keeps the call to mtd_get_unmapped_area() happy.

Are there any side effects to truncating the size here though?

romfs: do not use mtd->get_unmapped_area directly

Remove direct usage of mtd->get_unmapped_area. Instead, just call
'mtd_get_unmapped_area()' which will return -EOPNOTSUPP if the function
is not implemented, and then test for this code.

We also translate -EOPNOTSUPP to -ENOSYS because this return code is
probably part of the kernel ABI which we do not want to break.

romfs_get_unmapped_area() checks argument `len' without considering
PAGE_ALIGN which will cause do_mmap_pgoff() return -EINVAL error after
commit f67d9b1576c ("nommu: add page_align to mmap").

Fix the check by changing it in same way ramfs_nommu_get_unmapped_area()
was changed in ramfs/file-nommu.c.

NOMMU: Make it possible for RomFS to use MTD devices directly

Change RomFS so that it can use MTD devices directly - without the intercession
of the block layer - as well as using block devices.

This permits RomFS:

(1) to use the MTD direct mapping facility available under NOMMU conditions if
the underlying device is directly accessible by the CPU (including XIP);

(2) and thus to be used when the block layer is disabled.

RomFS can be configured with support just for MTD devices, just for Block
devices or for both. If RomFS is configured for both, then it will treat
mtdblock device files as MTD backing stores, not block layer backing stores.

I tested this using a CONFIG_MMU=n CONFIG_BLOCK=n kernel running on my FRV
board with a RomFS image installed on the mtdram test device. I see my test
program being run XIP:

# cat /proc/maps
...
c0c000b0-c0c01f8c r-xs 00000000 1f:00 144 /mnt/doshm
...

GDB on the kernel can be used to show that these addresses are within the
set-aside RAM space.
