KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Add transaction memory save/restore skeleton
The transaction memory checkpoint area save/restore behavior is triggered when VCPU qemu process is switching out/into CPU, i.e. at kvmppc_core_vcpu_put_pr() and kvmppc_core_vcpu_load_pr(). MSR TM active state is determined by TS bits: active: 10(transactional) or 01 (suspended) inactive: 00 (non-transactional) We don't "fake" TM functionality for guest. We "sync" guest virtual MSR TM active state(10 or 01) with shadow MSR. That is to say, we don't emulate a transactional guest with a TM inactive MSR. TM SPR support(TFIAR/TFAR/TEXASR) has already been supported by commit 9916d57e ("KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Expose TM registers"). Math register support (FPR/VMX/VSX) will be done at subsequent patch. Whether TM context need to be saved/restored can be determined by kvmppc_get_msr() TM active state: * TM active - save/restore TM context * TM inactive - no need to do so and only save/restore TM SPRs.
