    KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Take out virtual core piggybacking code · b009031f
    Paul Mackerras 提交于
    This takes out the code that arranges to run two (or more) virtual
    cores on a single subcore when possible, that is, when both vcores
    are from the same VM, the VM is configured with one CPU thread per
    virtual core, and all the per-subcore registers have the same value
    in each vcore.  Since the VTB (virtual timebase) is a per-subcore
    register, and will almost always differ between vcores, this code
    is disabled on POWER8 machines, meaning that it is only usable on
    POWER7 machines (which don't have VTB).  Given the tiny number of
    POWER7 machines which have firmware that allows them to run HV KVM,
    the benefit of simplifying the code outweighs the loss of this
    feature on POWER7 machines.
