[PATCHv4 1/8] mm: Add support for unaccepted memory

["Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com>]

UEFI Specification version 2.9 introduces the concept of memory
acceptance. Some Virtual Machine platforms, such as Intel TDX or AMD
SEV-SNP, requiring memory to be accepted before it can be used by the
guest. Accepting happens via a protocol specific for the Virtual Machine
platform.

Accepting memory is costly and it makes VMM allocate memory for the
accepted guest physical address range. It's better to postpone memory
acceptance until memory is needed. It lowers boot time and reduces
memory overhead.

Support of such memory requires a few changes in core-mm code:

  - memblock has to accept memory on allocation;

  - page allocator has to accept memory on the first allocation of the
    page;

Memblock change is trivial.

The page allocator is modified to accept pages on the first allocation.
PageUnaccepted() is used to indicate that the page requires acceptance.

Kernel only needs to accept memory once after boot, so during the boot
and warm up phase there will be a lot of memory acceptance. After things
are settled down the only price of the feature if couple of checks for
PageUnaccepted() in allocate and free paths. The check refers a hot
variable (that also encodes PageBuddy()), so it is cheap and not visible
on profiles.

Architecture has to provide two helpers if it wants to support
unaccepted memory:

 - accept_memory() makes a range of physical addresses accepted.

 - memory_is_unaccepted() checks anything within the range of physical
   addresses requires acceptance.
