vsock: fix potential deadlock in transport->release()

Some transports (hyperv, virtio) acquire the sock lock during the
.release() callback.

In the vsock_stream_connect() we call vsock_assign_transport(); if
the socket was previously assigned to another transport, the
vsk->transport->release() is called, but the sock lock is already
held in the vsock_stream_connect(), causing a deadlock reported by
syzbot:

the lock when we call vsk->transport->release() in the vsock core.

vsock: add multi-transports support

This patch adds the support of multiple transports in the
VSOCK core.

With the multi-transports support, we can use vsock with nested VMs
(using also different hypervisors) loading both guest->host and
host->guest transports at the same time.

Major changes:
- vsock core module can be loaded regardless of the transports
- vsock_core_init() and vsock_core_exit() are renamed to
vsock_core_register() and vsock_core_unregister()
- vsock_core_register() has a feature parameter (H2G, G2H, DGRAM)
to identify which directions the transport can handle and if it's
support DGRAM (only vmci)
- each stream socket is assigned to a transport when the remote CID
is set (during the connect() or when we receive a connection request
on a listener socket).
The remote CID is used to decide which transport to use:
- remote CID <= VMADDR_CID_HOST will use guest->host transport;
- remote CID == local_cid (guest->host transport) will use guest->host
transport for loopback (host->guest transports don't support loopback);
- remote CID > VMADDR_CID_HOST will use host->guest transport;
- listener sockets are not bound to any transports since no transport
operations are done on it. In this way we can create a listener
socket, also if the transports are not loaded or with VMADDR_CID_ANY
to listen on all transports.
- DGRAM sockets are handled as before, since only the vmci_transport
provides this feature.

virtio_transport and vmci_transport handle the buffer_size
sockopts in a very similar way.

In order to support multiple transports, this patch moves this
handling in the core to allow the user to change the options
also if the socket is not yet assigned to any transport.

This patch also adds the '.notify_buffer_size' callback in the
'struct virtio_transport' in order to inform the transport,
when the buffer_size is changed by the user. It is also useful
to limit the 'buffer_size' requested (e.g. virtio transports).

The current vsock code for removal of socket from the list is both
subject to race and inefficient. It takes the lock, checks whether
the socket is in the list, drops the lock and if the socket was on the
list, deletes it from the list. This is subject to race because as soon
as the lock is dropped once it is checked for presence, that condition
cannot be relied upon for any decision. It is also inefficient because
if the socket is present in the list, it takes the lock twice.

if they are trying to connect to same port with same guest cid since the

Revert changes to convert to ->poll_mask() and aio IOCB_CMD_POLL

The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely
unexplained. They also caused a huge performance regression, because
"->poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down
to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect
calls.

Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the
performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the
"->get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer
to the poll head instead. That gets rid of one of the new indirections.

But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted
for the regular case. The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes
was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case
slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all
really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental
redesign.

[ This revert is a revert of about 30 different commits, not reverted
individually because that would just be unnecessarily messy - Linus ]
