Patch series "Various mm kselftests improvements/fixes", v3.
Various improvements/fixes for the mm kselftests:
- Patch 1-3 extend support for more build configurations: out-of-tree
$KDIR, cross-compilation, etc.
- Patch 4-7 fix issues related to faulting in pages, introducing a new
helper for that purpose.
- Patch 8 fixes the value returned by pagemap_ioctl (PASS was always
returned, which explains why the issue fixed in patch 6 went
unnoticed).
- Patch 9 improves the exit code of pfnmap.
Net results:
- 1 test no longer fails (patch 7)
- 3 tests are no longer skipped (patch 4)
- More accurate return values for whole suites (patch 8, 9)
- Extra tests are more likely to be built (patch 1-3)
This patch (of 9):
KDIR currently defaults to the running kernel's modules directory when
building the page_frag module. The underlying assumption is that most
users build the kselftests in order to run them against the system they're
built on.
This assumption seems questionable, and there is no guarantee that the
module can actually be built against the running kernel.
Switch the default value of KDIR to the kernel's build directory, i.e.
$(O) if O= or KBUILD_OUTPUT= is used, and the source directory otherwise.
This seems like the least surprising option: the test module is built
against the kernel that has been previously built.
Note: we can't use $(top_srcdir) in mm/Makefile because it is only defined
once lib.mk is included.

page_frag test module is an out of tree module, but built
using KDIR as the main kernel tree, the mm test suite is
just getting skipped if newly added page_frag test module
fails to compile due to kernel not yet compiled.
Fix the above problem by ensuring both kernel is built first
and a newer kernel which has page_frag_cache.h is used.

Use appropriate frag_page API instead of caller accessing
'page_frag_cache' directly.

Inspired by [1], move the page fragment allocator from page_alloc
into its own c file and header file, as we are about to make more
change for it to replace another page_frag implementation in
sock.c
As this patchset is going to replace 'struct page_frag' with
'struct page_frag_cache' in sched.h, including page_frag_cache.h
in sched.h has a compiler error caused by interdependence between
mm_types.h and mm.h for asm-offsets.c, see [2]. So avoid the compiler
error by moving 'struct page_frag_cache' to mm_types_task.h as
suggested by Alexander, see [3].

The testing is done by ensuring that the fragment allocated
from a frag_frag_cache instance is pushed into a ptr_ring
instance in a kthread binded to a specified cpu, and a kthread
binded to a specified cpu will pop the fragment from the
ptr_ring and free the fragment.
