We are planning to use our own tmpfs mnt in i915 in place of the
shm_mnt, such that we can control the mount options, in particular
huge=, which we require to support huge-gtt-pages. So rather than roll
our own version of __shmem_file_setup, it would be preferred if we could
just give shmem our mnt, and let it do the rest.

Not a fully blown gemfs, just our very own tmpfs kernel mount. Doing so
moves us away from the shmemfs shm_mnt, and gives us the much needed
flexibility to do things like set our own mount options, namely huge=
which should allow us to enable the use of transparent-huge-pages for
our shmem backed objects.

v2: various improvements suggested by Joonas

v3: move gemfs instance to i915.mm and simplify now that we have
file_setup_with_mnt

Nope, this series is actually just for the driver to get some THPs,
regardless of whether user asked for them or not. It's an opportunistic
feature in this form, no new API introduced. We will also take
advantage if we happen to get 4-order pages (64KB).

What comes to the API anyway, the differences between each GPU driver
are big enough that we each have our own GEM buffer create IOCTLs for
example (I915_GEM_CREATE for i915). And then those are internally
calling DRM core functions which do bulk of the work with the backing
storage. So if we provide an interface for the user to enforce getting
huge pages, we'll simply have our own bit in the IOCTL which will then
be translated to some DRM core flag or function call.

"gem" is the DRM core memory manager (well, the other of them), so
"gemfs" is not an accidental name :) We're definitely driving it there.

But by doing this, you are now creating a new user/kernel api that you
have to support for forever, right?  Will it not change if you make it
"generic" to the drm core eventually?

Worse case, name it a generic name that everyone will end up using in
the future, and then you can just claim that all other drivers need to
implement it :)

We actually started quite grande by making stripped down version of
shmemfs for drm core, but kept running into nacks about how we were
implementing it (after getting a recommendation to try implementing it
some way). After a few iterations and massive engineering time, we have
been progressively reducing the amount of changes outside i915 in the
hopes to get this merged.

And all the while clock is ticking, so we thought the best way to get
something to support our future work is to implement this first locally
with minimal external changes outside i915 and then once we have
something working, it'll be easier to generalize it for the drm core.
Otherwise we'll never get to work with the huge page support, for which
gemfs is the stepping stone here.

So we're not planning on sitting on top of it, we'll just incubate it
under i915/ so that it'll then be less pain for others to adopt when
the biggest hurdles with core MM interactions are sorted out.

Why do this only for one specific driver?  Shouldn't the drm core handle
this for you, for all other drivers as well?  Otherwise trying to figure
out how to "contain" this type of thing is going to be a pain (mount
options, selinux options, etc.)

Not a fully blown gemfs, just our very own tmpfs kernel mount. Doing so
moves us away from the shmemfs shm_mnt, and gives us the much needed
flexibility to do things like set our own mount options, namely huge=
which should allow us to enable the use of transparent-huge-pages for
our shmem backed objects.

v2: various improvements suggested by Joonas

v3: move gemfs instance to i915.mm and simplify now that we have
file_setup_with_mnt

v4: fallback to tmpfs shm_mnt upon failure to setup gemfs

v5: make tmpfs fallback kinder
