udmabuf: pre-fault when first page fault
The current udmabuf mmap only fills the physical memory to the corresponding virtual address when the user actually accesses the virtual address. However, the current udmabuf has already obtained and pinned the folio upon completion of the creation.This means that the physical memory has already been acquired, rather than being accessed dynamically. As a result, the page fault has lost its purpose as a demanding page. Due to the fact that page fault requires trapping into kernel mode and filling in when accessing the corresponding virtual address in mmap, when creating a large size udmabuf, this represents a considerable overhead. This patch fill the pfn into page table, and then pre-fault each pfn into vma, when first access. Notice, if anything wrong , we do not return an error during this pre-fault step. However, an error will be returned if the failure occurs when the addr is truly accessed Suggested-by:Vivek Kasireddy <vivek.kasireddy@intel.com> Signed-off-by:
