This change adds a resource managed equivalent of uio_register_device().
Not adding devm_uio_unregister_device(), since the intent is to discourage

This patch puts the original initialization back to how it was and just
sets info->uio_dev to NULL on the error path so it should solve both
the Oops and the double free.

uio: Prevent device destruction while fds are open
The problem is the addition of spin_lock_irqsave in uio_write. This
leads to hitting uio_write -> copy_from_user -> _copy_from_user ->
might_fault and the logs filling up with sleeping warnings.
I also noticed some uio drivers allocate memory, sleep, grab mutexes
from callouts like open() and release and uio is now doing
spin_lock_irqsave while calling them.

Since commit b655028795 ("uio: we cannot mmap unaligned page
contents") addresses and sizes of UIO memory regions must be
page-aligned. If the address in the BAR register is not
page-aligned (which is the case of the mf264 card), the mentioned
commit forces the UIO driver to round the address down to the page
size. Then, there is no easy way for user-space to learn the offset of
the actual memory region within the page, because the offset seen in
/sys/class/uio/uio?/maps/map?/offset is calculated from the rounded
address and thus it is always zero.
Fix that problem by including the offset in struct uio_mem. UIO
drivers can set this field and userspace can read its value from
/sys/class/uio/uio?/maps/map?/offset.
The following commits update the uio_mf264 driver to set this new offs
field.
Drivers for hardware with page-aligned BARs need not to be modified
provided that they initialize struct uio_info (which contains uio_mem)
with zeros.

"Before calling this function, a device driver must always call free_irq()

Failure to do so results in a BUG_ON(), leaving the device with

So we need to separately free the irq at unregister to allow the device

In commit 7314e613d5 ("Fix a few incorrectly checked
[io_]remap_pfn_range() calls") the uio driver started more properly
checking the passed-in user mapping arguments against the size of the
actual uio driver data.
That in turn exposed that some driver authors apparently didn't realize
that mmap can only work on a page granularity, and had tried to use it
with smaller mappings, with the new size check catching that out.
So since it's not just the user mmap() arguments that can be confused,
make the uio mmap code also verify that the uio driver has the memory
allocated at page boundaries in order for mmap to work. If the device
memory isn't properly aligned, we return
[ENODEV]
The fildes argument refers to a file whose type is not supported by mmap().
as per the open group documentation on mmap.

This makes it possible to let gdb access mappings of the process that is
being debugged.
uio_mmap_logical was moved and uio_vm_ops renamed to group related code
and differentiate to new stuff.

The dev_attrs field of struct class is going away soon, dev_groups
should be used instead. This converts the uio class code to use the
correct field.
