[RFC PATCH v1 07/10] mm/prmem: Implement named Persistent Instances.

[madvenka@linux.microsoft.com]

From: "Madhavan T. Venkataraman" <madvenka@linux.microsoft.com>

To persist any data, a consumer needs to do the following:

	- create a persistent instance for it. The instance gets recorded
	  in the metadata.

	- Name the instance.

	- Record the instance data in the instance.

	- Retrieve the instance by name after kexec.

	- Retrieve instance data.

Implement the following API for consumers:

prmem_get(subsystem, name, create)

	Get/Create a persistent instance. The consumer provides the name
	of the subsystem and the name of the instance within the subsystem.
	E.g., for a persistent ramdisk block device:
		subsystem = "ramdisk"
		instance  = "pram0"

prmem_set_data()

	Record a data pointer and a size for the instance. An instance may
	contain many data structures connected to each other using pointers,
	etc. A consumer is expected to record the top level data structure
	in the instance. All other data structures must be reachable from
	the top level data structure.

prmem_get_data()

	Retrieve the data pointer and the size for the instance.

prmem_put()

	Destroy a persistent instance. The instance data must be NULL at
	this point. So, the consumer is responsible for freeing the
	instance data and setting it to NULL in the instance prior to
	destroying.

prmem_list()

	Walk the instances of a subsystem and call a callback for each.
	This allows a consumer to enumerate all of the instances associated
	with a subsystem.
