Benjamin Herrenschmidt bc5ad3f370 KVM: PPC: Book3S: Add kernel emulation for the XICS interrupt controller
This adds in-kernel emulation of the XICS (eXternal Interrupt
Controller Specification) interrupt controller specified by PAPR, for
both HV and PR KVM guests.

The XICS emulation supports up to 1048560 interrupt sources.
Interrupt source numbers below 16 are reserved; 0 is used to mean no
interrupt and 2 is used for IPIs.  Internally these are represented in
blocks of 1024, called ICS (interrupt controller source) entities, but
that is not visible to userspace.

Each vcpu gets one ICP (interrupt controller presentation) entity,
used to store the per-vcpu state such as vcpu priority, pending
interrupt state, IPI request, etc.

This does not include any API or any way to connect vcpus to their
ICP state; that will be added in later patches.

This is based on an initial implementation by Michael Ellerman
<michael@ellerman.id.au> reworked by Benjamin Herrenschmidt and
Paul Mackerras.

Support running unmodified book3s_64 guest kernels in
virtual machines on POWER7 and PPC970 processors that have
hypervisor mode available to the host.
If you say Y here, KVM will use the hardware virtualization
facilities of POWER7 (and later) processors, meaning that
guest operating systems will run at full hardware speed
using supervisor and user modes. However, this also means
that KVM is not usable under PowerVM (pHyp), is only usable
on POWER7 (or later) processors and PPC970-family processors,
and cannot emulate a different processor from the host processor.
