Second batch of KVM updates for v4.13
Common:
- add uevents for VM creation/destruction
- annotate and properly access RCU-protected objects
s390:
- rename IOCTL added in the first v4.13 merge
x86:
- emulate VMLOAD VMSAVE feature in SVM
- support paravirtual asynchronous page fault while nested
- add Hyper-V userspace interfaces for better migration
- improve master clock corner cases
- extend internal error reporting after EPT misconfig
- correct single-stepping of emulated instructions in SVM
- handle MCE during VM entry
- fix nVMX VM entry checks and nVMX VMCS shadowing
kvm: x86: hyperv: make VP_INDEX managed by userspace
Hyper-V identifies vCPUs by Virtual Processor Index, which can be
queried via HV_X64_MSR_VP_INDEX msr. It is defined by the spec as a
sequential number which can't exceed the maximum number of vCPUs per VM.
APIC ids can be sparse and thus aren't a valid replacement for VP
indices.
Current KVM uses its internal vcpu index as VP_INDEX. However, to make
it predictable and persistent across VM migrations, the userspace has to
control the value of VP_INDEX.
This patch achieves that, by storing vp_index explicitly on vcpu, and
allowing HV_X64_MSR_VP_INDEX to be set from the host side. For
compatibility it's initialized to KVM vcpu index. Also a few variables
are renamed to make clear distinction betweed this Hyper-V vp_index and
KVM vcpu_id (== APIC id). Besides, a new capability,
KVM_CAP_HYPERV_VP_INDEX, is added to allow the userspace to skip
attempting msr writes where unsupported, to avoid spamming error logs.
