A bogus 'return r' can cause an otherwise successful module load to fail.
This both denies users the use of kvm, and it also denies them the use of
their machine, as it leaves a filesystem registered with its callbacks
pointing into now-freed module memory.
Fix by returning a zero like a good module.
Thanks to Richard Lucassen <mailinglists@lucassen.org> (?) for reporting
the problem and for providing access to a machine which exhibited it.

Enabling dirty page logging is done using KVM_SET_MEMORY_REGION ioctl.
If the memory region already exists, we need to remove write accesses,
so writes will be caught, and dirty pages will be logged.

Allocate a distinct inode for every vcpu in a VM. This has the following
benefits:
- the filp cachelines are no longer bounced when f_count is incremented on
every ioctl()
- the API and internal code are distinctly clearer; for example, on the
KVM_GET_REGS ioctl, there is no need to copy the vcpu number from
userspace and then copy the registers back; the vcpu identity is derived
from the fd used to make the call
Right now the performance benefits are completely theoretical since (a) we
don't support more than one vcpu per VM and (b) virtualization hardware
inefficiencies completely everwhelm any cacheline bouncing effects. But
both of these will change, and we need to prepare the API today.

This avoids having filp->f_op and the corresponding inode->i_fop different,
which is a little unorthodox.
The ioctl list is split into two: global kvm ioctls and per-vm ioctls. A new
ioctl, KVM_CREATE_VM, is used to create VMs and return the VM fd.

Convert the PDA code to use %fs rather than %gs as the segment for
per-processor data. This is because some processors show a small but
measurable performance gain for reloading a NULL segment selector (as %fs
generally is in user-space) versus a non-NULL one (as %gs generally is).
On modern processors the difference is very small, perhaps undetectable.
Some old AMD "K6 3D+" processors are noticably slower when %fs is used
rather than %gs; I have no idea why this might be, but I think they're
sufficiently rare that it doesn't matter much.
This patch also fixes the math emulator, which had not been adjusted to
match the changed struct pt_regs.

Check pte permission bits in walk_addr(), instead of scattering the checks all
over the code. This has the following benefits:
1. We no longer set the accessed bit for accessed which fail permission checks.
2. Setting the accessed bit is simplified.
3. Under some circumstances, we used to pretend a page fault was fixed when
it would actually fail the access checks. This caused an unnecessary
vmexit.
4. The error code for guest page faults is now correct.
The fix helps netbsd further along booting, and allows kvm to pass the new mmu

If a page is marked as dirty in the guest pte, set_pte_common() can set the
writable bit on newly-instantiated shadow pte. This optimization avoids
a write fault after the initial read fault.
However, if a write fault instantiates the pte, fix_write_pf() incorrectly
reports the fault as a guest page fault, and the guest oopses on what appears
to be a correctly-mapped page.
Fix is to detect the condition and only report a guest page fault on a user
access to a kernel page.
With the fix, a kvm guest can survive a whole night of running the kernel
hacker's screensaver (make -j9 in a loop).
