Hi,

This series adds DMA operations support to the qemu fw_cfg kernel
module and populates "etc/vmcoreinfo" with vmcoreinfo location
details (entry added since qemu 2.11 with -device vmcoreinfo).

v16:
- patch reordering
- commit message updates
- rename fw_cfg.h -> qemu_fw_cfg.h
- fix warning when CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=n without RFC DMA read patch
  applied
- use a function pointer rather than a dma hint to read_blob()

v15:
- fix fw_cfg.h uapi header #include
- use BSD license for fw_cfg.h uapi header
- move the uapi defines/structs for DMA & vmcoreinfo in the
  corresponding patch
- use cpu_relax() instead of usleep_range(50, 100);
- replace do { } while(true) by for (;;)
- fix the rmb() call location
- add a preliminary patch to handle error from fw_cfg_write_blob()
- rewrite fw_cfg_sel_endianness() to wrap iowrite() calls

v14:
- add "fw_cfg: add a public uapi header"
- fix sparse warnings & don't introduce new warnings
- add memory barriers to force IO ordering
- split fw_cfg_read_blob() in fw_cfg_read_blob_io() and
  fw_cfg_read_blob_dma()
- add error handling to fw_cfg_read_blob() callers
- minor stylistic changes

v13:
- reorder patch series, introduce DMA write before DMA read
- do some measurements of DMA read speed-ups

v12:
- fix virt_to_phys(NULL) panic with CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL=y
- do not use DMA read, except for kmalloc() memory we allocated
  ourself (only fw_cfg_register_dir_entries() so far)

v11:
- add #include <linux/crash_core.h> in last patch,
  fixing kbuild .config test

Marc-André Lureau (11):
  fw_cfg: fix sparse warnings in fw_cfg_sel_endianness()
  fw_cfg: fix sparse warnings with fw_cfg_file
  fw_cfg: fix sparse warning reading FW_CFG_ID
  fw_cfg: fix sparse warnings around FW_CFG_FILE_DIR read
  fw_cfg: remove inline from fw_cfg_read_blob()
  fw_cfg: handle fw_cfg_read_blob() error
  fw_cfg: add a public uapi header
  fw_cfg: add DMA register
  crash: export paddr_vmcoreinfo_note()
  fw_cfg: write vmcoreinfo details
  RFC: fw_cfg: do DMA read operation
