Subject: [PATCHv5 02/12] mm: Add support for unaccepted memory

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

There are several ways kernel can deal with unaccepted memory:

 1. Accept all the memory during the boot. It is easy to implement and
    it doesn't have runtime cost once the system is booted. The downside
    is very long boot time.

    Accept can be parallelized to multiple CPUs to keep it manageable
    (i.e. via DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT), but it tends to saturate
    memory bandwidth and does not scale beyond the point.

 2. Accept a block of memory on the first use. It requires more
    infrastructure and changes in page allocator to make it work, but
    it provides good boot time.

    On-demand memory accept means latency spikes every time kernel steps
    onto a new memory block. The spikes will go away once workload data
    set size gets stabilized or all memory gets accepted.

 3. Accept all memory in background. Introduce a thread (or multiple)
    that gets memory accepted proactively. It will minimize time the
    system experience latency spikes on memory allocation while keeping
    low boot time.

    This approach cannot function on its own. It is an extension of #2:
    background memory acceptance requires functional scheduler, but the
    page allocator may need to tap into unaccepted memory before that.

    The downside of the approach is that these threads also steal CPU
    cycles and memory bandwidth from the user's workload and may hurt
    user experience.

Implement #2 for now. It is a reasonable default. Some workloads may
want to use #1 or #3 and they can be implemented later based on user's
demands.

Support of unaccepted 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.
The new page type (encoded in the _mapcount) -- PageUnaccepted() -- is
used to indicate that the page requires acceptance.

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.
