When the state names got added a script was used to add the extra argument
to the calls. The script basically converted the state constant to a
string, but the cleanup to convert these strings into meaningful ones did
not happen.

Replace all the useless strings with 'subsys/xxx/yyy:state' strings which
are used in all the other places already.

Pull xen updates from Juergen Gross:
 "Xen features and fixes for 4.10

  These are some fixes, a move of some arm related headers to share them
  between arm and arm64 and a series introducing a helper to make code
  more readable.

  The most notable change is David stepping down as maintainer of the
  Xen hypervisor interface. This results in me sending you the pull

<content type='text'>
The function xen_guest_init is using __alloc_percpu with an alignment
which are not power of two.

However, the percpu allocator never supported alignments which are not power
of two and has always behaved incorectly in thise case.

Commit 3ca45a4 "percpu: ensure requested alignment is power of two"
introduced a check which trigger a warning [1] when booting linux-next
on Xen. But in reality this bug was always present.

This can be fixed by replacing the call to __alloc_percpu with
alloc_percpu. The latter will use an alignment which are a power of two.

<title>swiotlb-xen: Enforce return of DMA_ERROR_CODE in mapping function</title>

<content type='text'>
The mapping function should always return DMA_ERROR_CODE when a mapping has
failed as this is what the DMA API expects when a DMA error has occurred.
The current function for mapping a page in Xen was returning either
DMA_ERROR_CODE or 0 depending on where it failed.

On x86 DMA_ERROR_CODE is 0, but on other architectures such as ARM it is
~0. We need to make sure we return the same error value if either the
mapping failed or the device is not capable of accessing the mapping.

If we are returning DMA_ERROR_CODE as our error value we can drop the
function for checking the error code as the default is to compare the
return value against DMA_ERROR_CODE if no function is defined.

<title>arm/xen: fix SMP guests boot</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 88e957d6e47f ("xen: introduce xen_vcpu_id mapping") broke SMP
ARM guests on Xen. When FIFO-based event channels are in use (this is
the default), evtchn_fifo_alloc_control_block() is called on
CPU_UP_PREPARE event and this happens before we set up xen_vcpu_id
mapping in xen_starting_cpu. Temporary fix the issue by setting direct
Linux CPU id &lt;-&gt; Xen vCPU id mapping for all possible CPUs at boot. We
don't currently support kexec/kdump on Xen/ARM so these ids always
match.

In future, we have several ways to solve the issue, e.g.:

- Eliminate all hypercalls from CPU_UP_PREPARE, do them from the
  starting CPU. This can probably be done for both x86 and ARM and, if
  done, will allow us to get Xen's idea of vCPU id from CPUID/MPIDR on
  the starting CPU directly, no messing with ACPI/device tree
  required.

- Save vCPU id information from ACPI/device tree on ARM and use it to
  initialize xen_vcpu_id mapping. This is the same trick we currently
  do on x86.

<title>xen: change the type of xen_vcpu_id to uint32_t</title>

We pass xen_vcpu_id mapping information to hypercalls which require
uint32_t type so it would be cleaner to have it as uint32_t. The
initializer to -1 can be dropped as we always do the mapping before using
it and we never check the 'not set' value anyway.

<title>dma-mapping: use unsigned long for dma_attrs</title>

<id>urn:sha1:00085f1efa387a8ce100e3734920f7639c80caa3</id>
<content type='text'>
The dma-mapping core and the implementations do not change the DMA
attributes passed by pointer.  Thus the pointer can point to const data.
However the attributes do not have to be a bitfield.  Instead unsigned
long will do fine:

1. This is just simpler.  Both in terms of reading the code and setting
   attributes.  Instead of initializing local attributes on the stack
   and passing pointer to it to dma_set_attr(), just set the bits.

2. It brings safeness and checking for const correctness because the
   attributes are passed by value.

HYPERVISOR_vcpu_op() passes Linux's idea of vCPU id as a parameter
while Xen's idea is expected. In some cases these ideas diverge so we
need to do remapping.

Convert all callers of HYPERVISOR_vcpu_op() to use xen_vcpu_nr().

Leave xen_fill_possible_map() and xen_filter_cpu_maps() intact as
they're only being called by PV guests before perpu areas are
initialized. While the issue could be solved by switching to
early_percpu for xen_vcpu_id I think it's not worth it: PV guests will
probably never get to the point where their idea of vCPU id diverges
from Xen's.

It may happen that Xen's and Linux's ideas of vCPU id diverge. In
particular, when we crash on a secondary vCPU we may want to do kdump
and unlike plain kexec where we do migrate_to_reboot_cpu() we try
booting on the vCPU which crashed. This doesn't work very well for
PVHVM guests as we have a number of hypercalls where we pass vCPU id
as a parameter. These hypercalls either fail or do something
unexpected.

To solve the issue introduce percpu xen_vcpu_id mapping. ARM and PV
guests get direct mapping for now. Boot CPU for PVHVM guest gets its
id from CPUID. With secondary CPUs it is a bit more
trickier. Currently, we initialize IPI vectors before these CPUs boot
so we can't use CPUID. Use ACPI ids from MADT instead.
