This patch contains the following two changes:
1. Fix the bug in nested preemption timer support. If vmexit L2->L0
with some reasons not emulated by L1, preemption timer value should
be save in such exits.
2. Add support of "Save VMX-preemption timer value" VM-Exit controls
to nVMX.

With this patch, nested VMX preemption timer features are fully
supported.

A guest can still attempt to save and restore XSAVE states even if they

On Intel SNB (SNB, SNB-EP), the event MEM_LOAD_UOPS_MISS_RETIRED

This patch adds the event to the PEBS table for SNB.

WARNING: it should be noted that this event like a few others
are subject to the erratum BT241 for Xeon E5 (SNB-EP). As such,
the event may undercount when used with PEBS unless the
workaround is implemented. But without this patch and just the
workaround, the kernel would not allow precise sampling on this
event. BT241 is documented in:

The x86 fault handler bails in the middle of error handling when the
task has a fatal signal pending.  For a subsequent patch this is a
problem in OOM situations because it relies on pagefault_out_of_memory()
being called even when the task has been killed, to perform proper
per-task OOM state unwinding.

Shortcutting the fault like this is a rather minor optimization that
saves a few instructions in rare cases.  Just remove it for
user-triggered faults.

Use the opportunity to split the fault retry handling from actual fault
errors and add locking documentation that reads suprisingly similar to
ARM's.

There was a bug in the handling of SNB-EP/IVB-EP uncore PCI
fixed counters, e.g., IMC.

It would cause erratic values to be returned for the IMC
clockticks event. This was due to a bogus hwc->config value
which was then written to PCI config space.

The erratic values can be seen via:

  $ perf stat -a -C 0 -e uncore_imc_0/clockticks/ -I 1000 sleep 10

The fixed counter has most fields marked as reserved with
hw reset values of 0. Yet the kernel was defaulting to a
hwc->config = ~0 and that was causing the issues.

This patch sets the hwc->config values for fixed uncore event
to 0. Now, the values of IMC clockticks is correct.

Currently hugepage migration works well only for pmd-based hugepages
(mainly due to lack of testing,) so we had better not enable migration of
other levels of hugepages until we are ready for it.

Some users of hugepage migration (mbind, move_pages, and migrate_pages) do
page table walk and check pud/pmd_huge() there, so they are safe.  But the
other users (softoffline and memory hotremove) don't do this, so without
this patch they can try to migrate unexpected types of hugepages.

To prevent this, we introduce hugepage_migration_support() as an
architecture dependent check of whether hugepage are implemented on a pmd
basis or not.  And on some architecture multiple sizes of hugepages are
available, so hugepage_migration_support() also checks hugepage size.

The previous patch doing vmstats for TLB flushes ("mm: vmstats: tlb flush
counters") effectively missed UP since arch/x86/mm/tlb.c is only compiled
for SMP.

UP systems do not do remote TLB flushes, so compile those counters out on
UP.

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/generic.c calls __flush_tlb() directly.  This is
probably an optimization since both the mtrr code and __flush_tlb() write
cr4.  It would probably be safe to make that a flush_tlb_all() (and then
get these statistics), but the mtrr code is ancient and I'm hesitant to
touch it other than to just stick in the counters.

I was investigating some TLB flush scaling issues and realized that we do
not have any good methods for figuring out how many TLB flushes we are
doing.

It would be nice to be able to do these in generic code, but the
arch-independent calls don't explicitly specify whether we actually need
to do remote flushes or not.  In the end, we really need to know if we
actually _did_ global vs.  local invalidations, so that leaves us with few
options other than to muck with the counters from arch-specific code.

without re patching.

That meant that for the core of the kernel we would be running
with the baremetal version of unlock_kick and lock_spinning while
for modules we would have the proper Xen specific slowpaths.

As most of the module uses some API from the core kernel that ended
up with slowpath lockers waiting forever to be kicked (b/c they
would be using the Xen specific slowpath logic). And the
kick never came b/c the unlock path that was taken was the
baremetal one.

On PV we do not have the problem as we initialise before the
alternative code kicks in.

The fix is to make the updating of the pv_lock_ops function
be done before the alternative code starts patching.

Note that this patch fixes issues discovered by commit
f10cd522.
("xen: disable PV spinlocks on HVM") wherein it mentioned

   PV spinlocks cannot possibly work with the current code because they are
   enabled after pvops patching has already been done, and because PV
   spinlocks use a different data structure than native spinlocks so we
   cannot switch between them dynamically.

The first problem is solved by this patch.

The second problem has been solved by commit
816434ec
(Merge branch 'x86-spinlocks-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip)

P.S.
There is still the commit 70dd4998
(xen/spinlock: Disable IRQ spinlock (PV) allocation on PVHVM) to
revert but that can be done later after all other bugs have been
fixed.

As we are using the generic ticketlock structs and these
old structures are not needed anymore.
