If preempted after kvmclock values are updated, but before hardware
virtualization is entered, the last tsc time as read by the guest is
never set. It underflows the next time kvmclock is updated if there
has not yet been a successful entry / exit into hardware virt.
Fix this by simply setting last_tsc to the newly read tsc value so
that any computed nsec advance of kvmclock is nulled.

Instead of blindly attempting to inject an event before each guest entry,
check for a possible event first in vcpu->requests. Sites that can trigger
event injection are modified to set KVM_REQ_EVENT:
- interrupt, nmi window opening
- ppr updates
- i8259 output changes
- local apic irr changes
- rflags updates
- gif flag set
- event set on exit
This improves non-injecting entry performance, and sets the stage for
non-atomic injection.

Kernel time, which advances in discrete steps may progress much slower
than TSC. As a result, when kvmclock is adjusted to a new base, the
apparent time to the guest, which runs at a much higher, nsec scaled
rate based on the current TSC, may have already been observed to have
a larger value (kernel_ns + scaled tsc) than the value to which we are
setting it (kernel_ns + 0).
We must instead compute the clock as potentially observed by the guest
for kernel_ns to make sure it does not go backwards.

If there are active VCPUs which are marked as belonging to
a particular hardware CPU, request a clock sync for them when
enabling hardware; the TSC could be desynchronized on a newly
arriving CPU, and we need to recompute guests system time
relative to boot after a suspend event.
This covers both cases.
Note that it is acceptable to take the spinlock, as either
no other tasks will be running and no locks held (BSP after
resume), or other tasks will be guaranteed to drop the lock
relatively quickly (AP on CPU_STARTING).
Noting we now get clock synchronization requests for VCPUs
which are starting up (or restarting), it is tempting to
attempt to remove the arch/x86/kvm/x86.c CPU hot-notifiers
at this time, however it is not correct to do so; they are
required for systems with non-constant TSC as the frequency
may not be known immediately after the processor has started
until the cpufreq driver has had a chance to run and query
the chipset.
Updated: implement better locking semantics for hardware_enable
Removed the hack of dropping and retaking the lock by adding the
semantic that we always hold kvm_lock when hardware_enable is
called. The one place that doesn't need to worry about it is
resume, as resuming a frozen CPU, the spinlock won't be taken.

When shadow pages are in use sometimes KVM try to emulate an instruction
when it accesses a shadowed page. If emulation fails KVM un-shadows the
page and reenter guest to allow vcpu to execute the instruction. If page
is not in shadow page hash KVM assumes that this was attempt to do MMIO
and reports emulation failure to userspace since there is no way to fix
the situation. This logic has a race though. If two vcpus tries to write
to the same shadowed page simultaneously both will enter emulator, but
only one of them will find the page in shadow page hash since the one who
founds it also removes it from there, so another cpu will report failure
to userspace and will abort the guest.
Fix this by checking (in addition to checking shadowed page hash) that
page that caused the emulation belongs to valid memory slot. If it is
then reenter the guest to allow vcpu to reexecute the instruction.

...
kvm_x86_ops->set_efer() would execute vcpu->arch.efer = efer, so the
checking of LMA bit didn't work.

The current lmsw implementation allows the guest to clear cr0.pe, contrary
to the manual, which breaks EMM386.EXE.
Fix by ORing the old cr0.pe with lmsw's operand.
