[PATCH 2/2] KVM: guest_memfd: Use guest mem inodes instead of anonymous inodes

[Ackerley Tng]

guest_memfd's inode represents memory the guest_memfd is
providing. guest_memfd's file represents a struct kvm's view of that
memory.

Using a custom inode allows customization of the inode teardown
process via callbacks. For example, ->evict_inode() allows
customization of the truncation process on file close, and
->destroy_inode() and ->free_inode() allow customization of the inode
freeing process.

Customizing the truncation process allows flexibility in management of
guest_memfd memory and customization of the inode freeing process
allows proper cleanup of memory metadata stored on the inode.

Memory metadata is more appropriately stored on the inode (as opposed
to the file), since the metadata is for the memory and is not unique
to a specific binding and struct kvm.
