When Hyper-V sends an interrupt to the guest, the guest has to figure
out which channel the interrupt is associated with.  Hyper-V sets a bit
in a memory page that is shared with the guest, indicating a particular
"relid" that the interrupt is associated with.  The current Linux code
then uses a set of per-CPU linked lists to map a given "relid" to a
pointer to a channel structure.

This design introduces a synchronization problem if the CPU that Hyper-V
will interrupt for a certain channel is changed.  If the interrupt comes
on the "old CPU" and the channel was already moved to the per-CPU list
of the "new CPU", then the relid -> channel mapping will fail and the
interrupt is dropped.  Similarly, if the interrupt comes on the new CPU
but the channel was not moved to the per-CPU list of the new CPU, then
the mapping will fail and the interrupt is dropped.

Relids are integers ranging from 0 to 2047.  The mapping from relids to
channel structures can be done by setting up an array with 2048 entries,
each entry being a pointer to a channel structure (hence total size ~16K
bytes, which is not a problem).  The array is global, so there are no
per-CPU linked lists to update.  The array can be searched and updated
by loading from/storing to the array at the specified index.  With no
per-CPU data structures, the above mentioned synchronization problem is
avoided and the relid2channel() function gets simpler.

The offer and rescind works are currently scheduled on the so called
"connect CPU".  However, this is not really needed: we can synchronize
the works by relying on the usage of the offer_in_progress counter and
of the channel_mutex mutex.  This synchronization is already in place.
So, remove this unnecessary "bind to the connect CPU" constraint and
update the inline comments accordingly.

A Linux guest have to pick a "connect CPU" to communicate with the
Hyper-V host.  This CPU can not be taken offline because Hyper-V does
not provide a way to change that CPU assignment.

Current code sets the connect CPU to whatever CPU ends up running the
function vmbus_negotiate_version(), and this will generate problems if
that CPU is taken offine.

Establish CPU0 as the connect CPU, and add logics to prevents the
connect CPU from being taken offline.   We could pick some other CPU,
and we could pick that "other CPU" dynamically if there was a reason to
do so at some point in the future.  But for now, #defining the connect
CPU to 0 is the most straightforward and least complex solution.

While on this, add inline comments explaining "why" offer and rescind
messages should not be handled by a same serialized work queue.

VMBus message handlers (channel_message_table) receive a pointer to
'struct vmbus_channel_message_header' and cast it to a structure of their
choice, which is sometimes longer than the header. We, however, don't check
that the message is long enough so in case hypervisor screws up we'll be
accessing memory beyond what was allocated for temporary buffer.

Previously, we used to always allocate and copy 256 bytes from message page
to temporary buffer but this is hardly better: in case the message is
shorter than we expect we'll be trying to consume garbage as some real
data and no memory guarding technique will be able to identify an issue.

Introduce 'min_payload_len' to 'struct vmbus_channel_message_table_entry'
and check against it in vmbus_on_msg_dpc(). Note, we can't require the
exact length as new hypervisor versions may add extra fields to messages,
we only check that the message is not shorter than we expect.

Hyper-V Interrupt Message Page (SIMP) has 16 256-byte slots for
messages. Each message comes with a header (16 bytes) which specifies the
payload length (up to 240 bytes). vmbus_on_msg_dpc(), however, doesn't
look at the real message length and copies the whole slot to a temporary
buffer before passing it to message handlers. This is potentially dangerous
as hypervisor doesn't have to clean the whole slot when putting a new
message there and a message handler can get access to some data which
belongs to a previous message.

Note, this is not currently a problem because all message handlers are
in-kernel but eventually we may e.g. get this exported to userspace.

Note also, that this is not a performance critical path: messages (unlike
events) represent rare events so it doesn't really matter (from performance
point of view) if we copy too much.

Fix the issue by taking into account the real message length. The temporary
buffer allocated by vmbus_on_msg_dpc() remains fixed size for now. Also,
check that the supplied payload length is valid (<= 240 bytes).

When remapping a mapping where a portion of a VMA is remapped
into another portion of the VMA it can cause the VMA to become
split. During the copy_vma operation the VMA can actually
be remerged if it's an anonymous VMA whose pages have not yet
been faulted. This isn't normally a problem because at the end
of the remap the original portion is unmapped causing it to
become split again.

However, MREMAP_DONTUNMAP leaves that original portion in place which
means that the VMA which was split and then remerged is not actually
split at the end of the mremap. This patch fixes a bug where
we don't detect that the VMAs got remerged and we end up
putting back VM_ACCOUNT on the next mapping which is completely
unreleated. When that next mapping is unmapped it results in
incorrectly unaccounting for the memory which was never accounted,
and eventually we will underflow on the memory comittment.

There is also another issue which is similar, we're currently
accouting for the number of pages in the new_vma but that's wrong.
We need to account for the length of the remap operation as that's
all that is being added. If there was a mapping already at that
location its comittment would have been adjusted as part of
the munmap at the start of the mremap.

A really simple repro can be seen in:

extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.
