This paves the way for multiple architecture support.  Note that while
ioapic.c could potentially be shared with ia64, it is also moved.

Previous patches have removed the dependency on cr2; we can now stop passing

cmps and scas instructions accept repeat prefixes F3 and F2. So in
order to emulate those prefixed instructions we need to be able to know
if prefixes are REP/REPE/REPZ or REPNE/REPNZ. Currently kvm doesn't make
this distinction. This patch introduces this distinction.

Theoretically used to acccess memory known to be ordinary RAM, it was

Instructions like 'inc reg' that have the register operand encoded
in the opcode are currently specially decoded.  Extend
decode_register_operand() to handle that case, indicated by having
DstReg or SrcReg without ModRM.

emulate_instruction() calls now x86_decode_insn() and x86_emulate_insn().
x86_emulate_insn() is x86_emulate_memop() without the decoding part.

Move all x86_emulate_memop() common variables between decode and execute to a
structure decode_cache.  This will help in later separating decode and
emulate.

The following patchset adds a driver for Intel's hardware virtualization
extensions to the x86 architecture.  The driver adds a character device
(/dev/kvm) that exposes the virtualization capabilities to userspace.  Using
this driver, a process can run a virtual machine (a "guest") in a fully
virtualized PC containing its own virtual hard disks, network adapters, and
display.

Using this driver, one can start multiple virtual machines on a host.

Each virtual machine is a process on the host; a virtual cpu is a thread in
that process.  kill(1), nice(1), top(1) work as expected.  In effect, the
driver adds a third execution mode to the existing two: we now have kernel
mode, user mode, and guest mode.  Guest mode has its own address space mapping
guest physical memory (which is accessible to user mode by mmap()ing
/dev/kvm).  Guest mode has no access to any I/O devices; any such access is
intercepted and directed to user mode for emulation.

The driver supports i386 and x86_64 hosts and guests.  All combinations are
allowed except x86_64 guest on i386 host.  For i386 guests and hosts, both pae
and non-pae paging modes are supported.

SMP hosts and UP guests are supported.  At the moment only Intel
hardware is supported, but AMD virtualization support is being worked on.

Performance currently is non-stellar due to the naive implementation of the
mmu virtualization, which throws away most of the shadow page table entries
every context switch.  We plan to address this in two ways:

- cache shadow page tables across tlb flushes
- wait until AMD and Intel release processors with nested page tables

Currently a virtual desktop is responsive but consumes a lot of CPU.  Under
Windows I tried playing pinball and watching a few flash movies; with a recent
CPU one can hardly feel the virtualization.  Linux/X is slower, probably due
to X being in a separate process.

In addition to the driver, you need a slightly modified qemu to provide I/O
device emulation and the BIOS.

Caveats (akpm: might no longer be true):

- The Windows install currently bluescreens due to a problem with the
  virtual APIC.  We are working on a fix.  A temporary workaround is to
  use an existing image or install through qemu
- Windows 64-bit does not work.  That's also true for qemu, so it's
  probably a problem with the device model.
