KVM: MIPS: Add 64BIT capability

Browse Source 
Add a new KVM_CAP_MIPS_64BIT capability to indicate that 64-bit MIPS
guests are available and supported. In this case it should still be
possible to run 32-bit guest code. If not available it won't be possible
to run 64-bit guest code and the instructions may not be available, or
the kernel may not support full context switching of 64-bit registers.

@ -4192,3 +4192,28 @@ to KVM_CREATE_VM to create a VM which utilises it.
If KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION on a kvm VM handle indicates that this capability is
available, it means that the VM is using trap & emulate.
8.7 KVM_CAP_MIPS_64BIT
Architectures: mips
This capability indicates the supported architecture type of the guest, i.e. the
supported register and address width.
The values returned when this capability is checked by KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION on a
kvm VM handle correspond roughly to the CP0_Config.AT register field, and should
be checked specifically against known values (see below). All other values are
reserved.
0: MIPS32 or microMIPS32.
Both registers and addresses are 32-bits wide.
It will only be possible to run 32-bit guest code.
1: MIPS64 or microMIPS64 with access only to 32-bit compatibility segments.
Registers are 64-bits wide, but addresses are 32-bits wide.
64-bit guest code may run but cannot access MIPS64 memory segments.
It will also be possible to run 32-bit guest code.
2: MIPS64 or microMIPS64 with access to all address segments.
Both registers and addresses are 64-bits wide.
It will be possible to run 64-bit or 32-bit guest code.
