drivers/nvdimm: Fix build failure when CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS is not set

The following build failure occurs when CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS is not set
as generic pmu functions are not visible in that scenario.

|-- s390-randconfig-r044-20220313
| |-- nd_perf.c:(.text):undefined-reference-to-perf_pmu_migrate_context
| |-- nd_perf.c:(.text):undefined-reference-to-perf_pmu_register
| `-- nd_perf.c:(.text):undefined-reference-to-perf_pmu_unregister

Similar build failure in nds32 architecture:
nd_perf.c:(.text+0x21e): undefined reference to `perf_pmu_migrate_context'
nd_perf.c:(.text+0x434): undefined reference to `perf_pmu_register'
nd_perf.c:(.text+0x57c): undefined reference to `perf_pmu_unregister'

Fix this issue by adding check for CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS config option
and disabling the nvdimm perf interface incase this config is not set.

Also remove function declaration of perf_pmu_migrate_context,
perf_pmu_register, perf_pmu_unregister functions from nd.h as these are
common pmu functions which are part of perf_event.h and since we
are disabling nvdimm perf interface incase CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS option
is not set, we not need to declare them in nd.h

Also move the platform_device header file addition part from nd.h to
nd_perf.c and add stub functions for register_nvdimm_pmu and
unregister_nvdimm_pmu functions to handle CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=n
case.

drivers/nvdimm: Add perf interface to expose nvdimm performance stats

A common interface is added to get performance stats reporting
support for nvdimm devices. Added interface defines supported
event list, config fields for the event attributes and their
corresponding bit values which are exported via sysfs.

Interface also added support for pmu register/unregister functions,
cpu hotplug feature along with macros for handling events addition
via sysfs. It adds attribute groups for format, cpumask and events
to the pmu structure.

User could use the standard perf tool to access perf events exposed
via nvdimm pmu.

libnvdimm/labels: Add uuid helpers

In preparation for CXL labels that move the uuid to a different offset
in the label, add nsl_{ref,get,validate}_uuid(). These helpers use the
proper uuid_t type. That type definition predated the libnvdimm
subsystem, so now is as a good a time as any to convert all the uuid
handling in the subsystem to uuid_t to match the helpers.

Note that the uuid fields in the label data and superblocks is not
replaced per Andy's expectation that uuid_t is a kernel internal type
not to appear in external ABI interfaces. So, in those case
{import,export}_uuid() is used to go between the 2 types.

Also note that this rework uncovered some unnecessary copies for label
comparisons, those are cleaned up with nsl_uuid_equal().

As for the whitespace changes, all new code is clang-format compliant.

libnvdimm: Notify disk drivers to revalidate region read-only

Previous kernels allowed the BLKROSET to override the disk's read-only
status. With that situation fixed the pmem driver needs to rely on
notification events to reevaluate the disk read-only status after the
host region has been marked read-write.

Recall that when libnvdimm determines that the persistent memory has
lost persistence (for example lack of energy to flush from DRAM to FLASH
on an NVDIMM-N device) it marks the region read-only, but that state can
be overridden by the user via:

echo 0 > /sys/bus/nd/devices/regionX/read_only

...to date there is no notification that the region has restored
persistence, so the user override is the only recovery.

libnvdimm, label: add address abstraction identifiers

Starting with v1.2 labels, 'address abstractions' can be hinted via an
address abstraction id that implies an info-block format. The standard
address abstraction in the specification is the v2 format of the
Block-Translation-Table (BTT). Support for that is saved for a later
patch, for now we add support for the Linux supported address
abstractions BTT (v1), PFN, and DAX.

The new 'holder_class' attribute for namespace devices is added for
tooling to specify the 'abstraction_guid' to store in the namespace label.
For v1.1 labels this field is undefined and any setting of
'holder_class' away from the default 'none' value will only have effect
until the driver is unloaded. Setting 'holder_class' requires that
whatever device tries to claim the namespace must be of the specified
class.

libnvdimm: add an atomic vs process context flag to rw_bytes

nsio_rw_bytes can clear media errors, but this cannot be done while we
are in an atomic context due to locking within ACPI. From the BTT,
->rw_bytes may be called either from atomic or process context depending
on whether the calls happen during initialization or during IO.

During init, we want to ensure error clearing happens, and the flag
marking process context allows nsio_rw_bytes to do that. When called
during IO, we're in atomic context, and error clearing can be skipped.

libnvdimm, pmem, pfn: make pmem_rw_bytes generic and refactor pfn setup

In preparation for providing an alternative (to block device) access
mechanism to persistent memory, convert pmem_rw_bytes() to
nsio_rw_bytes(). This allows ->rw_bytes() functionality without
requiring a 'struct pmem_device' to be instantiated.

In other words, when ->rw_bytes() is in use i/o is driven through
'struct nd_namespace_io', otherwise it is driven through 'struct
pmem_device' and the block layer. This consolidates the disjoint calls
to devm_exit_badblocks() and devm_memunmap() into a common
devm_nsio_disable() and cleans up the init path to use a unified
pmem_attach_disk() implementation.

libnvdimm: infrastructure for btt devices

NVDIMM namespaces, in addition to accepting "struct bio" based requests,
also have the capability to perform byte-aligned accesses. By default
only the bio/block interface is used. However, if another driver can
make effective use of the byte-aligned capability it can claim namespace
interface and use the byte-aligned ->rw_bytes() interface.

The BTT driver is the initial first consumer of this mechanism to allow
adding atomic sector update semantics to a pmem or blk namespace. This
patch is the sysfs infrastructure to allow configuring a BTT instance
for a namespace. Enabling that BTT and performing i/o is in a
subsequent patch.

libnvdimm: blk labels and namespace instantiation

A blk label set describes a namespace comprised of one or more
discontiguous dpa ranges on a single dimm. They may alias with one or
more pmem interleave sets that include the given dimm.

This is the runtime/volatile configuration infrastructure for sysfs
manipulation of 'alt_name', 'uuid', 'size', and 'sector_size'. A later
patch will make these settings persistent by writing back the label(s).

Unlike pmem namespaces, multiple blk namespaces can be created per
region. Once a blk namespace has been created a new seed device
(unconfigured child of a parent blk region) is instantiated. As long as
a region has 'available_size' != 0 new child namespaces may be created.

libnvdimm: support for legacy (non-aliasing) nvdimms

The libnvdimm region driver is an intermediary driver that translates
non-volatile "region"s into "namespace" sub-devices that are surfaced by
persistent memory block-device drivers (PMEM and BLK).

ACPI 6 introduces the concept that a given nvdimm may simultaneously
offer multiple access modes to its media through direct PMEM load/store
access, or windowed BLK mode. Existing nvdimms mostly implement a PMEM
interface, some offer a BLK-like mode, but never both as ACPI 6 defines.
If an nvdimm is single interfaced, then there is no need for dimm
metadata labels. For these devices we can take the region boundaries
directly to create a child namespace device (nd_namespace_io).

libnvdimm, nvdimm: dimm driver and base libnvdimm device-driver infrastructure

* Implement the device-model infrastructure for loading modules and
attaching drivers to nvdimm devices. This is a simple association of a
nd-device-type number with a driver that has a bitmask of supported
device types. To facilitate userspace bind/unbind operations 'modalias'
and 'devtype', that also appear in the uevent, are added as generic
sysfs attributes for all nvdimm devices. The reason for the device-type
number is to support sub-types within a given parent devtype, be it a
vendor-specific sub-type or otherwise.

* The first consumer of this infrastructure is the driver
for dimm devices. It simply uses control messages to retrieve and
store the configuration-data image (label set) from each dimm.

Note: nd_device_register() arranges for asynchronous registration of
nvdimm bus devices by default.
