KVM: PPC: booke: category E.HV (GS-mode) support
Chips such as e500mc that implement category E.HV in Power ISA 2.06 provide hardware virtualization features, including a new MSR mode for guest state. The guest OS can perform many operations without trapping into the hypervisor, including transitions to and from guest userspace. Since we can use SRR1[GS] to reliably tell whether an exception came from guest state, instead of messing around with IVPR, we use DO_KVM similarly to book3s. Current issues include: - Machine checks from guest state are not routed to the host handler. - The guest can cause a host oops by executing an emulated instruction in a page that lacks read permission. Existing e500/4xx support has the same problem. Includes work by Ashish Kalra <Ashish.Kalra@freescale.com>, Varun Sethi <Varun.Sethi@freescale.com>, and Liu Yu <yu.liu@freescale.com>.
