Dan Williams 5d8beee20d x86, nfit_test: Add unit test for memcpy_mcsafe()
Given the fact that the ACPI "EINJ" (error injection) facility is not
universally available, implement software infrastructure to validate the
memcpy_mcsafe() exception handling implementation.

For each potential read exception point in memcpy_mcsafe(), inject a
emulated exception point at the address identified by 'mcsafe_inject'
variable. With this infrastructure implement a test to validate that the
'bytes remaining' calculation is correct for a range of various source
buffer alignments.

This code is compiled out by default. The CONFIG_MCSAFE_DEBUG
configuration symbol needs to be manually enabled by editing
Kconfig.debug. I.e. this functionality can not be accidentally enabled
by a user / distro, it's only for development.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
