[ Upstream commit 6e97eba8ad8748fabb795cffc5d9e1a7dcfd7367 ]
vfio core checks whether the driver sets some migration op (e.g.
set_state/get_state) and accordingly calls its op.
However, currently mlx5 driver sets the above ops without regards to its
migration caps.
This might lead to unexpected usage/Oops if user space may call to the
above ops even if the driver doesn't support migration. As for example,
the migration state_mutex is not initialized in that case.
The cleanest way to manage that seems to split the migration ops from
the main device ops, this will let the driver setting them separately
from the main ops when it's applicable.
As part of that, validate ops construction on registration and include a
check for VFIO_MIGRATION_STOP_COPY since the uAPI claims it must be set
in migration_flags.
HISI driver was changed as well to match this scheme.
This scheme may enable down the road to come with some extra group of
ops (e.g. DMA log) that can be set without regards to the other options
based on driver caps.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
