Drivers: hv: Never allocate anything besides framebuffer from framebuffer memory region

[ Upstream commit f0880e2c

 ]

Passed through PCI device sometimes misbehave on Gen1 VMs when Hyper-V
DRM driver is also loaded. Looking at IOMEM assignment, we can see e.g.

$ cat /proc/iomem
...
f8000000-fffbffff : PCI Bus 0000:00
  f8000000-fbffffff : 0000:00:08.0
    f8000000-f8001fff : bb8c4f33-2ba2-4808-9f7f-02f3b4da22fe
...
fe0000000-fffffffff : PCI Bus 0000:00
  fe0000000-fe07fffff : bb8c4f33-2ba2-4808-9f7f-02f3b4da22fe
    fe0000000-fe07fffff : 2ba2:00:02.0
      fe0000000-fe07fffff : mlx4_core

the interesting part is the 'f8000000' region as it is actually the
VM's framebuffer:

$ lspci -v
...
0000:00:08.0 VGA compatible controller: Microsoft Corporation Hyper-V virtual VGA (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 11
	Memory at f8000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64M]
...

 hyperv_drm 5620e0c7-8062-4dce-aeb7-520c7ef76171: [drm] Cannot request framebuffer, boot fb still active?

Note: "Cannot request framebuffer" is not a fatal error in
hyperv_setup_gen1() as the code assumes there's some other framebuffer
device there but we actually have some other PCI device (mlx4 in this
case) config space there!

The problem appears to be that vmbus_allocate_mmio() can use dedicated
framebuffer region to serve any MMIO request from any device. The
semantics one might assume of a parameter named "fb_overlap_ok"
aren't implemented because !fb_overlap_ok essentially has no effect.
The existing semantics are really "prefer_fb_overlap". This patch
implements the expected and needed semantics, which is to not allocate
from the frame buffer space when !fb_overlap_ok.

Note, Gen2 VMs are usually unaffected by the issue because
framebuffer region is already taken by EFI fb (in case kernel supports
it) but Gen1 VMs may have this region unclaimed by the time Hyper-V PCI
pass-through driver tries allocating MMIO space if Hyper-V DRM/FB drivers
load after it. Devices can be brought up in any sequence so let's
resolve the issue by always ignoring 'fb_mmio' region for non-FB
requests, even if the region is unclaimed.
