Per file descriptor TID caching actions depend on a global that can
change midway through the lifetime of that file descriptor.
Make the use of caching consistent for the life of the file descriptor
by using the presence of the cache handler to decide when to use the cache
functions.

The hfi1 driver registers a mmu_notifier callback when /dev/hfi1_* is
opened, and unregisters it when the device is closed. The driver
incorrectly assumes that the close will always happen from the same
context as the open. In particular, closes due to SIGKILL or OOM killer
activity may happen from a different context. In these cases, the wrong
mm is passed to mmu_notifier_unregister(), which causes improper reference
counting for the victim mm, and eventual memory corruption.
Preserve the mm for all open file descriptors and use this mm rather than
current->mm for memory operations for the lifetime of that fd. Note: this
patch leaves 1 use of current->mm in place. This use is removed in a
follow on patch because other functional changes were required prior to
that use being removed.
If registration fails, there is no reason to keep the handler object
around. Free the handler object rather than add it to the list to
prevent any mmu_notifier operations, including unregister, when
registration fails.

Save the current capability state at user context creation
time. Report this saved value for all shared contexts.
Also get rid of unnecessary hfi1_get_base_kinfo function.

When performing process affinity recommendations for MPI ranks, the current
algorithm doesn't take into account multiple HFI units. Also, real
cores and HT cores are not distinguished from one another. Therefore,
all HT cores are recommended to be assigned first within the local NUMA
node before recommending the assignments of cores in other NUMA nodes.
It's ideal to assign all real cores across all NUMA nodes first, then all
HT 1 cores, then all HT 2 cores, and so on to balance CPU workload. CPU
cores in other NUMA nodes could be running interrupt handlers, and this is
not taken into account.
To balance the CPU workload for user processes, the following
recommendation algorithm is used:
For each user process that is opening a context on HFI Y:
a) If all cores are assigned to user processes, start assignments all
over from the first core
b) Assign real cores first, then HT cores (First set of HT cores on
all physical cores, then second set of HT cores, and, so on) in the
following order:
1. Same NUMA node as HFI Y and not running an IRQ handler
2. Same NUMA node as HFI Y and running an IRQ handler
3. Different NUMA node to HFI Y and not running an IRQ handler
4. Different NUMA node to HFI Y and running an IRQ handler
c) Mark core as assigned in the global affinity structure. As user
processes are done, remove core assignments from global affinity
structure.
This implementation allows an arbitrary number of HT cores and provides
support for multiple HFIs.
This is being included in the kernel rather than user space due to the
fact that user space has no way of knowing the CPU recommendations for
contexts running as part of other jobs.

The TODO list for the hfi1 driver was completed during 4.6. In addition
other objections raised (which are far beyond what was in the TODO list)
have been addressed as well. It is now time to remove the driver from
staging and into the drivers/infiniband sub-tree.
