The new flash.c file contains the logic to flash a new image on the
adapter, through a hcall. It is an iterative process, with chunks of
data of 1M at a time. There are also 2 phases: write and verify. The
flash operation itself is driven from a user-land tool.
Once flashing is successful, an rtas call is made to update the device
tree with the new properties values for the adapter and the AFU(s)
Add a new char device for the adapter, so that the flash tool can
access the card, even if there is no valid AFU on it.

userspace programs using cxl currently have to use two strategies for
dealing with MMIO errors simultaneously. They have to check every read
for a return of all Fs in case the adapter has gone away and the kernel
has not yet noticed, and they have to deal with SIGBUS in case the
kernel has already noticed, invalidated the mapping and marked the
context as failed.
In order to simplify things, this patch adds an alternative approach
where the kernel will return a page filled with Fs instead of delivering
a SIGBUS. This allows userspace to only need to deal with one of these
two error paths, and is intended for use in libraries that use cxl
transparently and may not be able to safely install a signal handler.
This approach will only work if certain constraints are met. Namely, if
the application is both reading and writing to an address in the problem
state area it cannot assume that a non-FF read is OK, as it may just be
reading out a value it has previously written. Further - since only one
page is used per context a write to a given offset would be visible when
reading the same offset from a different page in the mapping (this only
applies within a single context, not between contexts).
An application could deal with this by e.g. making sure it also reads
from a read-only offset after any reads to a read/write offset.
Due to these constraints, this functionality must be explicitly
requested by userspace when starting the context by passing in the
CXL_START_WORK_ERR_FF flag.

Given a file descriptor on an afu device, libcxl currently uses the
major/minor number obtained from fstat on the fd to construct path to
the afu's sysfs directory. However it is possible that rather than using
one of the device in /dev/cxl, a kernel driver creates its own device
which export generic cxl interface to the userspace. This causes
problems with libcxl as it tries to use a wrong major/minor number to
construct the sysfs path and fail.
So this patch introduces a new ioctl called CXL_IOCTL_GET_AFU_ID on the
afu file descriptor to fetch the cxl_afu_id struct that holds the
card/offset-id and mode information. These info is then used by libcxl to
construct the correct path to the afu sysfs directory.
Testing:
- Build against pseries be/le configs
- Testing with corresponding libcxl changes to verify that it constructs
right sysfs path to the afu.

This documentation gives an overview of the hardware architecture, userspace
APIs via /dev/cxl/afuM.N and the syfs files. It also adds a MAINTAINERS file
entry for cxl.

This adds a header file for use by userspace programs wanting to interact with
the kernel cxl driver. It defines structs and magic numbers required for
userspace to interact with devices in /dev/cxl/afuM.N.
Further documentation on this interface is added in a subsequent patch in
Documentation/powerpc/cxl.txt.
It also adds this new userspace header file to Kbuild so it's exported when
doing "make headers_installs".
