When running a PAPR guest, the guest is not allowed to set SDR1 - instead
the HTAB information is held in internal hypervisor structures. But all of
our current code relies on SDR1 and walking the HTAB like on real hardware.
So in order to not be too intrusive, we simply set SDR1 to the HTAB we hold
in host memory. That way we can keep the HTAB in user space, but use it from
kernel space to map the guest.

This moves the slb field, which represents the state of the emulated
SLB, from the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct to the kvm_vcpu_arch, and the
hpte_hash_[v]pte[_long] fields from kvm_vcpu_arch to kvmppc_vcpu_book3s.
This is in accord with the principle that the kvm_vcpu_arch struct
represents the state of the emulated CPU, and the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s
struct holds the auxiliary data structures used in the emulation.

We need to override EA as well as PA lookups for the magic page. When the guest
tells us to project it, the magic page overrides any guest mappings.
In order to reflect that, we need to hook into all the MMU layers of KVM to
force map the magic page if necessary.

One of the most obvious registers to share with the guest directly is the
MSR. The MSR contains the "interrupts enabled" flag which the guest has to
toggle in critical sections.
So in order to bring the overhead of interrupt en- and disabling down, let's
put msr into the shared page. Keep in mind that even though you can fully read
its contents, writing to it doesn't always update all state. There are a few
safe fields that don't require hypervisor interaction. See the documentation
for a list of MSR bits that are safe to be set from inside the guest.

Book3S_64 didn't set VSID_PR when we're in PR=1. This lead to pretty bad
behavior when searching for the shadow segment, as part of the code relied
on VSID_PR being set.
This patch fixes booting Book3S_64 guests.

When in split mode, instruction relocation and data relocation are not equal.
So far we implemented this mode by reserving a special pseudo-VSID for the
two cases and flushing all PTEs when going into split mode, which is slow.
Unfortunately 32bit Linux and Mac OS X use split mode extensively. So to not
slow down things too much, I came up with a different idea: Mark the split
mode with a bit in the VSID and then treat it like any other segment.
This means we can just flush the shadow segment cache, but keep the PTEs
intact. I verified that this works with ppc32 Linux and Mac OS X 10.4
guests and does speed them up.

There are some pieces in the code that I overlooked that still use
u64s instead of longs. This slows down 32 bit hosts unnecessarily, so
let's just move them to ulong.

We already have some inline fuctions we use to access vcpu or svcpu structs,
depending on whether we're on booke or book3s. Since we just put a few more
registers into the svcpu, we also need to make sure the respective callbacks
are available and get used.
So this patch moves direct use of the now in the svcpu struct fields to
inline function calls. While at it, it also moves the definition of those
inline function calls to respective header files for booke and book3s,
greatly improving readability.

An SLB entry contains two pieces of information related to size:
1) PTE size
2) SLB size
The L bit defines the PTE be "large" (usually means 16MB),
SLB_VSID_B_1T defines that the SLB should span 1 GB instead of the
default 256MB.
Apparently I messed things up and just put those two in one box,
shaked it heavily and came up with the current code which handles
large pages incorrectly, because it also treats large page SLB entries
as "1TB" segment entries.
This patch splits those two features apart, making Linux guests boot
even when they have > 256MB.

We were shifting the Ks/Kp/N bits one bit too far on mtsrin. It took
me some time to figure that out, so I also put in some debugging and a
comment explaining the conversion.
This fixes current OpenBIOS boot on PPC64 KVM.

Currently userspace has no chance to find out which virtual address space we're
in and resolve addresses. While that is a big problem for migration, it's also
unpleasent when debugging, as gdb and the monitor don't work on virtual
addresses.
This patch exports enough of the MMU segment state to userspace to make
debugging work and thus also includes the groundwork for migration.
