Subject: [PATCH v2 3/8] vringh: replace kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page()
Date:   Thu,  2 Mar 2023 12:34:16 +0100

kmap_atomic() is deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().

With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread, CPU local, can take
page-faults, and can be called from any context (including interrupts).
Furthermore, the tasks can be preempted and, when they are scheduled to
run again, the kernel virtual addresses are restored and still valid.

kmap_atomic() is implemented like a kmap_local_page() which also disables
page-faults and preemption (the latter only for !PREEMPT_RT kernels,
otherwise it only disables migration).

The code within the mappings/un-mappings in getu16_iotlb() and
putu16_iotlb() don't depend on the above-mentioned side effects of
kmap_atomic(), so that mere replacements of the old API with the new one
is all that is required (i.e., there is no need to explicitly add calls
to pagefault_disable() and/or preempt_disable()).

Notes:
    v2:
    - added this patch since checkpatch.pl complained about deprecation
      of kmap_atomic() touched by next patch
