As the mmu write protects guest page table, we emulate those writes.  Since
they are not mmio, there is no need to go to userspace to perform them.

So, perform the writes in the kernel if possible, and notify the mmu about
them so it can take the approriate action.

Define a hashtable for caching shadow page tables. Look up the cache on
context switch (cr3 change) or during page faults.

The key to the cache is a combination of
- the guest page table frame number
- the number of paging levels in the guest
   * we can cache real mode, 32-bit mode, pae, and long mode page
     tables simultaneously.  this is useful for smp bootup.
- the guest page table table
   * some kernels use a page as both a page table and a page directory.  this
     allows multiple shadow pages to exist for that page, one per level
- the "quadrant"
   * 32-bit mode page tables span 4MB, whereas a shadow page table spans
     2MB.  similarly, a 32-bit page directory spans 4GB, while a shadow
     page directory spans 1GB.  the quadrant allows caching up to 4 shadow page
     tables for one guest page in one level.
- a "metaphysical" bit
   * for real mode, and for pse pages, there is no guest page table, so set
     the bit to avoid write protecting the page.

Keep in each host page frame's page->private a pointer to the shadow pte which
maps it.  If there are multiple shadow ptes mapping the page, set bit 0 of
page->private, and use the rest as a pointer to a linked list of all such
mappings.

Reverse mappings are needed because we when we cache shadow page tables, we
must protect the guest page tables from being modified by the guest, as that
would invalidate the cached ptes.

Hardware virtualization implementations allow the guests to freely change some
of the bits in cr0 and cr4, but trap when changing the other bits.  This is
useful to avoid excessive exits due to changing, for example, the ts flag.

It also means the kvm's copy of cr0 and cr4 may be stale with respect to these
bits.  most of the time this doesn't matter as these bits are not very
interesting.  Other times, however (for example when returning cr0 to
userspace), they are, so get the fresh contents of these bits from the guest
by means of a new arch operation.

The current interrupt injection mechanism might delay an interrupt under
the following circumstances:

 - if injection fails because the guest is not interruptible (rflags.IF clear,
   or after a 'mov ss' or 'sti' instruction).  Userspace can check rflags,
   but the other cases or not testable under the current API.
 - if injection fails because of a fault during delivery.  This probably
   never happens under normal guests.
 - if injection fails due to a physical interrupt causing a vmexit so that
   it can be handled by the host.

In all cases the guest proceeds without processing the interrupt, reducing
the interactive feel and interrupt throughput of the guest.

This patch fixes the situation by allowing userspace to request an exit
when the 'interrupt window' opens, so that it can re-inject the interrupt
at the right time.  Guest interactivity is very visibly improved.

KVM does kmalloc() in an atomic section while having preemption disabled via
vcpu_load().  Fix this by moving the ->*_msr setup from the vcpu_setup method
to the vcpu_create method.

(This is also a small speedup for setting up a vcpu, which can in theory be
more frequent than the vcpu_create method).

fix an GFP_KERNEL allocation in atomic section: kvm_dev_ioctl_create_vcpu()
called kvm_mmu_init(), which calls alloc_pages(), while holding the vcpu.

The fix is to set up the MMU state in two phases: kvm_mmu_create() and
kvm_mmu_setup().

(NOTE: free_vcpus does an kvm_mmu_destroy() call so there's no need for any
extra teardown branch on allocation/init failure here.)

The latest version of kvm doesn't initialize kvm_arch_ops in kvm_init(), which
causes an error with the following sequence.

1. Load the supported arch's module.
2. Load the unsupported arch's module.$B!!(B(loading error)
3. Unload the unsupported arch's module.

You'll get the following error message after step 3.  "BUG: unable to handle
to handle kernel paging request at virtual address xxxxxxxx"

The problem here is that the unsupported arch's module overwrites kvm_arch_ops
of the supported arch's module at step 2.

This patch initializes kvm_arch_ops upon loading architecture specific kvm
module, and prevents overwriting kvm_arch_ops when kvm_arch_ops is already set
correctly.
