Rename selftets/vm to selftests/mm for being more consistent with the
code, documentation, and tools directories, and won't be confused with
virtual machines.

Currently, anonymous PTE-mapped THPs cannot be collapsed in-place:
collapsing (e.g., via MADV_COLLAPSE) implies allocating a fresh THP and
mapping that new THP via a PMD: as it's a fresh anon THP, it will get the
exclusive flag set on the head page and everybody is happy.
However, if the kernel would ever support in-place collapse of anonymous
THPs (replacing a page table mapping each sub-page of a THP via PTEs with
a single PMD mapping the complete THP), exclusivity information stored for
each sub-page would have to be collapsed accordingly:
(1) All PTEs map !exclusive anon sub-pages: the in-place collapsed THP
must not not have the exclusive flag set on the head page mapped by
the PMD. This is the easiest case to handle ("simply don't set any
exclusive flags").
(2) All PTEs map exclusive anon sub-pages: when collapsing, we have to
clear the exclusive flag from all tail pages and only leave the
exclusive flag set for the head page. Otherwise, fork() after
collapse would not clear the exclusive flags from the tail pages
and we'd be in trouble once PTE-mapping the shared THP when writing
to shared tail pages that still have the exclusive flag set. This
would effectively revert what the PTE-mapping code does when
propagating the exclusive flag to all sub-pages.
(3) PTEs map a mixture of exclusive and !exclusive anon sub-pages (can
happen e.g., due to MADV_DONTFORK before fork()). We must not
collapse the THP in-place, otherwise bad things may happen:
the exclusive flags of sub-pages would get ignored and the
exclusive flag of the head page would get used instead.
Now that we have MADV_COLLAPSE in place to trigger collapsing a THP, let's
add some test cases that would bail out early, if we'd
voluntarily/accidantially unlock in-place collapse for anon THPs and
forget about taking proper care of exclusive flags.
Running the test on a kernel with MADV_COLLAPSE support:
# [INFO] Anonymous THP tests
# [RUN] Basic COW after fork() when collapsing before fork()
ok 169 No leak from parent into child
# [RUN] Basic COW after fork() when collapsing after fork() (fully shared)
ok 170 # SKIP MADV_COLLAPSE failed: Invalid argument
# [RUN] Basic COW after fork() when collapsing after fork() (lower shared)
ok 171 No leak from parent into child
# [RUN] Basic COW after fork() when collapsing after fork() (upper shared)
ok 172 No leak from parent into child
For now, MADV_COLLAPSE always seems to fail if all PTEs map shared
sub-pages.

Let's test whether R/O long-term pinning is reliable for non-anonymous
memory: when R/O long-term pinning a page, the expectation is that we
break COW early before pinning, such that actual write access via the
page tables won't break COW later and end up replacing the R/O-pinned
page in the page table.
Consequently, R/O long-term pinning in private mappings would only target
exclusive anonymous pages.
For now, all tests fail:
# [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with shared zeropage
not ok 151 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
# [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with memfd
not ok 152 Longterm R/O pin is reliable

Let's add basic tests for COW with non-anonymous pages in private
mappings: write access should properly trigger COW and result in the
private changes not being visible through other page mappings.
Especially, add tests for:
* Zeropage
* Huge zeropage
* Ordinary pagecache pages via memfd and tmpfile()
* Hugetlb pages via memfd
Fortunately, all tests pass.

Patch series "mm/gup: remove FOLL_FORCE usage from drivers (reliable R/O
long-term pinning)".
For now, we did not support reliable R/O long-term pinning in COW
mappings. That means, if we would trigger R/O long-term pinning in
MAP_PRIVATE mapping, we could end up pinning the (R/O-mapped) shared
zeropage or a pagecache page.
The next write access would trigger a write fault and replace the pinned
page by an exclusive anonymous page in the process page table; whatever
the process would write to that private page copy would not be visible by
the owner of the previous page pin: for example, RDMA could read stale
data. The end result is essentially an unexpected and hard-to-debug
memory corruption.
Some drivers tried working around that limitation by using
"FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE|FOLL_LONGTERM" for R/O long-term pinning for now.
FOLL_WRITE would trigger a write fault, if required, and break COW before
pinning the page. FOLL_FORCE is required because the VMA might lack write
permissions, and drivers wanted to make that working as well, just like
one would expect (no write access, but still triggering a write access to
break COW).
However, that is not a practical solution, because
(1) Drivers that don't stick to that undocumented and debatable pattern
would still run into that issue. For example, VFIO only uses
FOLL_LONGTERM for R/O long-term pinning.
(2) Using FOLL_WRITE just to work around a COW mapping + page pinning
limitation is unintuitive. FOLL_WRITE would, for example, mark the
page softdirty or trigger uffd-wp, even though, there actually isn't
going to be any write access.
(3) The purpose of FOLL_FORCE is debug access, not access without lack of
VMA permissions by arbitrarty drivers.
So instead, make R/O long-term pinning work as expected, by breaking COW
in a COW mapping early, such that we can remove any FOLL_FORCE usage from
drivers and make FOLL_FORCE ptrace-specific (renaming it to FOLL_PTRACE).
More details in patch #8.
This patch (of 19):
Originally, the plan was to have a separate tests for testing COW of
non-anonymous (e.g., shared zeropage) pages.
Turns out, that we'd need a lot of similar functionality and that there
isn't a really good reason to separate it. So let's prepare for non-anon
tests by renaming to "cow".
