The current code tries to optimize the setting of
KVM_REQ_PENDING_TIMER but used atomic_inc_and_test - which always
returns true unless pending had the invalid value of -1 on entry. This
patch drops the test part preserving the original semantic but
expressing it less confusingly.

Minor issue that likely had no practical relevance: the kvm timer
function so far incremented the pending counter and then may reset it
again to 1 in case reinjection was disabled. This opened a small racy
window with the corresponding VCPU loop that may have happened to run
on another (real) CPU and already consumed the value.
Fix it by skipping the incrementation in case pending is already > 0.
This opens a different race windows, but may only rarely cause lost
events in case we do not care about them anyway (!reinject).

Most of the time IRR is empty, so instead of scanning the whole IRR on
each VM entry keep a variable that tells us if IRR is not empty. IRR
will have to be scanned twice on each IRQ delivery, but this is much
more rare than VM entry.

The performance counter MSRs are different for AMD and Intel CPUs and they
are chosen mainly by the CPUID vendor string. This patch catches writes to
all addresses (regardless of VMX/SVM path) and handles them in the generic
MSR handler routine. Writing a 0 into the event select register is something
we perfectly emulate ;-), so don't print out a warning to dmesg in this
case.
This fixes booting a 64bit Windows guest with an AMD CPUID on an Intel host.

Under testing, count_writable_mappings returns a value that is 2 integers
larger than what count_rmaps returns.
Suspicion is that either of the two functions is counting a duplicate (either
positively or negatively).
Modifying check_writable_mappings_rmap to check for rmap existance on
all present MMU pages fails to trigger an error, which should keep Avi
happy.
Also introduce mmu_spte_walk to invoke a callback on all present sptes visible
to the current vcpu, might be useful in the future.

"Unrestricted Guest" feature is added in the VMX specification.
Intel Westmere and onwards processors will support this feature.
It allows kvm guests to run real mode and unpaged mode
code natively in the VMX mode when EPT is turned on. With the
unrestricted guest there is no need to emulate the guest real mode code
in the vm86 container or in the emulator. Also the guest big real mode
code works like native.
The attached patch enhances KVM to use the unrestricted guest feature
if available on the processor. It also adds a new kernel/module
parameter to disable the unrestricted guest feature at the boot time.

WARNING: arch/powerpc/kvm/kvm-440.o(.text+0x1e8c): Section mismatch in reference from the function kvmppc_44x_exit() to the function .exit.text:kvmppc_booke_exit()
The function kvmppc_44x_exit() references a function in an exit section.
Often the function kvmppc_booke_exit() has valid usage outside the exit section

Also add some __init annotations on obvious routines.

Disable interrupt at interrupt handler and enable it when guest ack is for

One possible problem is multiply same vector interrupt injected between irq

As discussed dropping the variables at struct kvm_arch level allows to use the

The kick mechanism introduced in this series is used to ensure running vcpus
