Add kmalloc failover to vmalloc
This patch is based on the kvmalloc helpers introduced in kernel 4.12.
It will gracefully failover memory allocations of more than one page to
vmalloc for systems under high memory pressure or fragmentation.

mm: introduce kv[mz]alloc helpers
Patch series "kvmalloc", v5.
There are many open coded kmalloc with vmalloc fallback instances in the
tree. Most of them are not careful enough or simply do not care about
the underlying semantic of the kmalloc/page allocator which means that
a) some vmalloc fallbacks are basically unreachable because the kmalloc
part will keep retrying until it succeeds b) the page allocator can
invoke a really disruptive steps like the OOM killer to move forward
which doesn't sound appropriate when we consider that the vmalloc
fallback is available.
As it can be seen implementing kvmalloc requires quite an intimate
knowledge if the page allocator and the memory reclaim internals which
strongly suggests that a helper should be implemented in the memory
subsystem proper.
Most callers, I could find, have been converted to use the helper
instead. This is patch 6. There are some more relying on __GFP_REPEAT
in the networking stack which I have converted as well and Eric Dumazet
was not opposed [2] to convert them as well.

This patch (of 9):
Using kmalloc with the vmalloc fallback for larger allocations is a
common pattern in the kernel code. Yet we do not have any common helper
for that and so users have invented their own helpers. Some of them are
really creative when doing so. Let's just add kv[mz]alloc and make sure
it is implemented properly. This implementation makes sure to not make
a large memory pressure for > PAGE_SZE requests (__GFP_NORETRY) and also
to not warn about allocation failures. This also rules out the OOM
killer as the vmalloc is a more approapriate fallback than a disruptive
user visible action.

Fix: mmap: caches aliased on virtual addresses
Some architectures (e.g. implementations of arm64) implement their
caches based on the virtual addresses (rather than physical address).
It has the upside of making the cache access faster (no TLB lookup
required to access the cache line), but the downside of requiring
virtual mappings (e.g. kernel vs user-space) to be aligned on the number
of bits used for cache aliasing.
Perform dcache flushing for the entire sub-buffer in the get_subbuf
operation on those architectures, thus ensuring we don't end up with
cache aliasing issues.
An alternative approach we could eventually take would be to create a
kernel mapping for the ring buffer that is aligned with the user-space
mapping.

to grab the buffer positions, and we don't want to generate useless

Therefore, add the "flush empty" behavior as a new ioctl to the ring

Filtering: add support for star-only globbing patterns
This patch adds the support for "full" star-only globbing patterns to be
used in filter literal strings. A star-only globbing pattern is a
globbing pattern with the star (`*`) being the only special character.
This means `?` and character sets (`[abc-k]`) are not supported here. We
cannot support them without a strategy to differentiate the globbing
pattern because `?` and `[` are not special characters in filter literal
strings right now. The eventual strategy to support them would probably
look like this:
filename =* "?sys*.[ch]"
The filter bytecode generator in LTTng-tools's session daemon creates
the new FILTER_OP_LOAD_STAR_GLOB_STRING operation when the interpreter
should load a star globbing pattern literal string. Even if both
"plain", or legacy strings and star globbing pattern strings are literal
strings, they do not represent the same thing, that is, the == and !=
operators act differently.
The validation process checks that:
1. There's no binary operator between two
FILTER_OP_LOAD_STAR_GLOB_STRING operations. It is illegal to compare
two star globbing patterns, as this is not trivial to implement, and
completely useless as far as I know.
2. Only the == and != binary operators are allowed between a
star globbing pattern and a string.
For the special case of star globbing patterns with a star at the end
only, the current behaviour is not changed to preserve a maximum of
backward compatibility. This is also why the ABI version is changed from
2.2 to 2.3, not to 3.0.
== or != operations between REG_STRING and REG_STAR_GLOB_STRING
registers is specialized to FILTER_OP_EQ_STAR_GLOB_STRING and
FILTER_OP_NE_STAR_GLOB_STRING. Which side is the actual globbing pattern
(the one with the REG_STAR_GLOB_STRING type) is checked at execution
time. The strutils_star_glob_match() function is used to perform the
match operation. See the implementation for more details.

Fix: nmi-safe clock on 32-bit systems
On 32-bit systems, the algorithm within lttng-modules that ensures the
nmi-safe clock increases monotonically on a CPU assumes to have one
clock read per 32-bit LSB overflow period, which is not guaranteed. It
also has an issue on the first clock reads after module load, because
the initial value for the last LSB is 0. It can cause the time to stay
stuck at the same value for a few seconds at the beginning of the trace,
which is unfortunate for the first trace after module load, because this
is where the offset between realtime and trace_clock is sampled, which
prevents correlation of kernel and user-space traces for that session.
It only affects 32-bit systems with kernels >= 3.17.
Fix this by using the non-nmi-safe clock source on 32-bit systems.
While we are there, remove an implementation-defined c99 behavior
regarding casting u64 to long by using unsigned arithmetic instead:
turn:
if (((long) now - (long) last) < 0)
into:
if (U64_MAX / 2 < now - last)
