This fixes various issues in how we were handling the VSX registers
that exist on POWER7 machines. First, we were running off the end
of the current->thread.fpr[] array. Ultimately this was because the
vcpu->arch.vsr[] array is sized to be able to store both the FP
registers and the extra VSX registers (i.e. 64 entries), but PR KVM
only uses it for the extra VSX registers (i.e. 32 entries).
Secondly, calling load_up_vsx() from C code is a really bad idea,
because it jumps to fast_exception_return at the end, rather than
returning with a blr instruction. This was causing it to jump off
to a random location with random register contents, since it was using
the largely uninitialized stack frame created by kvmppc_load_up_vsx.
In fact, it isn't necessary to call either __giveup_vsx or load_up_vsx,
since giveup_fpu and load_up_fpu handle the extra VSX registers as well
as the standard FP registers on machines with VSX. Also, since VSX
instructions can access the VMX registers and the FP registers as well
as the extra VSX registers, we have to load up the FP and VMX registers
before we can turn on the MSR_VSX bit for the guest. Conversely, if
we save away any of the VSX or FP registers, we have to turn off MSR_VSX
for the guest.
To handle all this, it is more convenient for a single call to
kvmppc_giveup_ext() to handle all the state saving that needs to be done,
so we make it take a set of MSR bits rather than just one, and the switch
statement becomes a series of if statements. Similarly kvmppc_handle_ext
needs to be able to load up more than one set of registers.

This adds basic emulation of the PURR and SPURR registers. We assume
we are emulating a single-threaded core, so these advance at the same
rate as the timebase. A Linux kernel running on a POWER7 expects to
be able to access these registers and is not prepared to handle a
program interrupt on accessing them.
This also adds a very minimal emulation of the DSCR (data stream
control register). Writes are ignored and reads return zero.

Currently, if the guest does an H_PROTECT hcall requesting that the
permissions on a HPT entry be changed to allow writing, we make the
requested change even if the page is marked read-only in the host
Linux page tables. This is a problem since it would for instance
allow a guest to modify a page that KSM has decided can be shared
between multiple guests.
To fix this, if the new permissions for the page allow writing, we need
to look up the memslot for the page, work out the host virtual address,
and look up the Linux page tables to get the PTE for the page. If that
PTE is read-only, we reduce the HPTE permissions to read-only.

This fixes a bug in the code which allows userspace to read out the
contents of the guest's hashed page table (HPT). On the second and
subsequent passes through the HPT, when we are reporting only those
entries that have changed, we were incorrectly initializing the index
field of the header with the index of the first entry we skipped
rather than the first changed entry. This fixes it.

With HV-style KVM, we maintain reverse-mapping lists that enable us to
find all the HPT (hashed page table) entries that reference each guest
physical page, with the heads of the lists in the memslot->arch.rmap
arrays. When we reset the HPT (i.e. when we reboot the VM), we clear
out all the HPT entries but we were not clearing out the reverse
mapping lists. The result is that as we create new HPT entries, the
lists get corrupted, which can easily lead to loops, resulting in the
host kernel hanging when it tries to traverse those lists.
This fixes the problem by zeroing out all the reverse mapping lists
when we zero out the HPT. This incidentally means that we are also
zeroing our record of the referenced and changed bits (not the bits
in the Linux PTEs, used by the Linux MM subsystem, but the bits used
by the KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl, and those used by kvm_age_hva() and
kvm_test_age_hva()).

A new ioctl, KVM_PPC_GET_HTAB_FD, returns a file descriptor. Reads on
this fd return the contents of the HPT (hashed page table), writes
create and/or remove entries in the HPT. There is a new capability,
KVM_CAP_PPC_HTAB_FD, to indicate the presence of the ioctl. The ioctl
takes an argument structure with the index of the first HPT entry to
read out and a set of flags. The flags indicate whether the user is
intending to read or write the HPT, and whether to return all entries
or only the "bolted" entries (those with the bolted bit, 0x10, set in
the first doubleword).
This is intended for use in implementing qemu's savevm/loadvm and for
live migration. Therefore, on reads, the first pass returns information
about all HPTEs (or all bolted HPTEs). When the first pass reaches the
end of the HPT, it returns from the read. Subsequent reads only return
information about HPTEs that have changed since they were last read.
A read that finds no changed HPTEs in the HPT following where the last
read finished will return 0 bytes.
The format of the data provides a simple run-length compression of the
invalid entries. Each block of data starts with a header that indicates
the index (position in the HPT, which is just an array), the number of
valid entries starting at that index (may be zero), and the number of
invalid entries following those valid entries. The valid entries, 16
bytes each, follow the header. The invalid entries are not explicitly
represented.

This uses a bit in our record of the guest view of the HPTE to record
when the HPTE gets modified. We use a reserved bit for this, and ensure
that this bit is always cleared in HPTE values returned to the guest.
The recording of modified HPTEs is only done if other code indicates
its interest by setting kvm->arch.hpte_mod_interest to a non-zero value.
The reason for this is that when later commits add facilities for
userspace to read the HPT, the first pass of reading the HPT will be
quicker if there are no (or very few) HPTEs marked as modified,
rather than having most HPTEs marked as modified.

This fixes a bug where adding a new guest HPT entry via the H_ENTER
hcall would lose the "changed" bit in the reverse map information
for the guest physical page being mapped. The result was that the
KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG could return a zero bit for the page even though
the page had been modified by the guest.
This fixes it by only modifying the index and present bits in the
reverse map entry, thus preserving the reference and change bits.
We were also unnecessarily setting the reference bit, and this
fixes that too.

This restructures the code that creates HPT (hashed page table)
entries so that it can be called in situations where we don't have a
struct vcpu pointer, only a struct kvm pointer. It also fixes a bug
where kvmppc_map_vrma() would corrupt the guest R4 value.
Most of the work of kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter is now done by a new
function, kvmppc_virtmode_do_h_enter, which itself calls another new
function, kvmppc_do_h_enter, which contains most of the old
kvmppc_h_enter. The new kvmppc_do_h_enter takes explicit arguments
for the place to return the HPTE index, the Linux page tables to use,
and whether it is being called in real mode, thus removing the need
for it to have the vcpu as an argument.
Currently kvmppc_map_vrma creates the VRMA (virtual real mode area)
HPTEs by calling kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter, which is designed primarily
to handle H_ENTER hcalls from the guest that need to pin a page of
memory. Since H_ENTER returns the index of the created HPTE in R4,
kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter updates the guest R4, corrupting the guest R4
in the case when it gets called from kvmppc_map_vrma on the first
VCPU_RUN ioctl. With this, kvmppc_map_vrma instead calls
kvmppc_virtmode_do_h_enter with the address of a dummy word as the
place to store the HPTE index, thus avoiding corrupting the guest R4.

If the DIU framebuffer driver is not enabled, then there's no point in
compiling any platform DIU code, because it will never be used. Most of
the platform code was protected in the appropriate #ifdef, but not all.
This caused a break in some randconfig builds.
This is only a problem on the 512x platforms. The P1022DS and MPC8610HPCD
platforms are already correct.
This patch reverts commit 12e36309f8774f4ccc769d5e3ff11ef092e524bc ("powerpc:

Commit c22618a1, "drivers/of: Constify device_node->name and
->path_component_name" changes device_node name to a const value, but
the PowerPC scom code still assigns it to a non-void field in
debugfs_blob_wrapper. The /right/ solution might be to change the
debugfs_blob_wrapper->data to also be const, but that is a bit
risky. Instead, cast the value to (void*). It is a bit ugly, but it
is the safest change until it can be investigated where
debugfs_blob_wrapper can be modified.

Many cpuidle drivers measure their time spent in an idle state by
reading the wallclock time before and after idling and calculating the
difference. This leads to erroneous results when the wallclock time gets
updated by another processor in the meantime, adding that clock
adjustment to the idle state's time counter.
If the clock adjustment was negative, the result is even worse due to an
erroneous cast from int to unsigned long long of the last_residency
variable. The negative 32 bit integer will zero-extend and result in a
forward time jump of roughly four billion milliseconds or 1.3 hours on
the idle state residency counter.
This patch changes all affected cpuidle drivers to either use the
monotonic clock for their measurements or make use of the generic time
measurement wrapper in cpuidle.c, which was already working correctly.
Some superfluous CLIs/STIs in the ACPI code are removed (interrupts
should always already be disabled before entering the idle function, and
not get reenabled until the generic wrapper has performed its second
measurement). It also removes the erroneous cast, making sure that
negative residency values are applied correctly even though they should
not appear anymore.

The expressions tsk->nsproxy->pid_ns and task_active_pid_ns
aka ns_of_pid(task_pid(tsk)) should have the same number of
cache line misses with the practical difference that
ns_of_pid(task_pid(tsk)) is released later in a processes life.
Furthermore by using task_active_pid_ns it becomes trivial
to write an unshare implementation for the the pid namespace.
So I have used task_active_pid_ns everywhere I can.
In fork since the pid has not yet been attached to the
process I use ns_of_pid, to achieve the same effect.
