Specifically document the new/clarified rules around how the shared
fences do not have any ordering requirements against the exclusive
fence.
But also document all the things a bit better, given how central
struct dma_resv to dynamic buffer management the docs have been very
inadequat.
- Lots more links to other pieces of the puzzle. Unfortunately
ttm_buffer_object has no docs, so no links :-(
- Explain/complain a bit about dma_resv_locking_ctx(). I still don't
like that one, but fixing the ttm call chains is going to be
horrible. Plus we want to plug in real slowpath locking when we do
that anyway.
- Main part of the patch is some actual docs for struct dma_resv.
Overall I think we still have a lot of bad naming in this area (e.g.
dma_resv.fence is singular, but contains the multiple shared fences),
but I think that's more indicative of how the semantics and rules are
just not great.
Another thing that's real awkard is how chaining exclusive fences
right now means direct dma_resv.exclusive_fence pointer access with an
rcu_assign_pointer. Not so great either.
v2:
- Fix a pile of typos (Matt, Jason)
- Hammer it in that breaking the rules leads to use-after-free issues
around dma-buf sharing (Christian)

When the comment needs to state explicitly that this is doesn't get a reference

Rename the function and use it in even more places.

Rename the function and use rcu_dereference_check(), this

A sequence counter write side critical section must be protected by some
form of locking to serialize writers. If the serialization primitive is
not disabling preemption implicitly, preemption has to be explicitly
disabled before entering the sequence counter write side critical
section.
The dma-buf reservation subsystem uses plain sequence counters to manage
updates to reservations. Writer serialization is accomplished through a
wound/wait mutex.
Acquiring a wound/wait mutex does not disable preemption, so this needs
to be done manually before and after the write side critical section.
Use the newly-added seqcount_ww_mutex_t instead:
- It associates the ww_mutex with the sequence count, which enables
lockdep to validate that the write side critical section is properly
serialized.
- It removes the need to explicitly add preempt_disable/enable()
around the write side critical section because the write_begin/end()
functions for this new data type automatically do this.
If lockdep is disabled this ww_mutex lock association is compiled out
and has neither storage size nor runtime overhead.

Commit 3c3b177a93 ("reservation: add support for read-only access
using rcu") introduced a sequence counter to manage updates to
reservations. Back then, the reservation object initializer
reservation_object_init() was always inlined.
Having the sequence counter initialization inlined meant that each of
the call sites would have a different lockdep class key, which would've
broken lockdep's deadlock detection. The aforementioned commit thus
introduced, and exported, a custom seqcount lockdep class key and name.
The commit 8735f16803 ("dma-buf: cleanup reservation_object_init...")
transformed the reservation object initializer to a normal non-inlined C
function. seqcount_init(), which automatically defines the seqcount
lockdep class key and must be called non-inlined, can now be safely used.
Remove the seqcount custom lockdep class key, name, and export. Use
seqcount_init() inside the dma reservation object initializer.

The scenario that defeats simply grabbing a set of shared/exclusive
fences and using them blissfully under RCU is that any of those fences
may be reallocated by a SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU fence slab cache. In this
scenario, while keeping the rcu_read_lock we need to establish that no
fence was changed in the dma_resv after a read (or full) memory barrier.
