When the commit f471a17e9d converted the
ram_blocks structure to QLIST, it also removed the conditional check before
switching the current block at the beginning of the list.
In the common use case where ram_blocks has a few blocks with only one
frequently accessed (the main RAM), this has a performance impact as it
performs the useless list operations on each call (which are on a really
hot path).

As stated before, devices can be little, big or native endian. The
target endianness is not of their concern, so we need to push things
down a level.

The way we're currently modeling mmio is too simplified. We assume that
every device has the same endianness as the target CPU. In reality,
most devices are little endian (all PCI and ISA ones I'm aware of). Some
are big endian (special system devices) and a very little fraction is
target native endian (fw_cfg).
So instead of assuming every device to be native endianness, let's move
to a model where the device tells us which endianness it's in.
That way we can compile the devices only once and get rid of all the ugly
swap will be done by the underlying layer.
For the same of readability, this patch only introduces the helper framework
but doesn't allow the registering code to set its endianness yet.

vl.c has a Sun-specific hack to supply a prototype for madvise(),
but the call site has apparently moved to arch_init.c.
Haiku doesn't implement madvise() in favor of posix_madvise().
OpenBSD and Solaris 10 don't implement posix_madvise() but madvise().
MinGW implements neither.
Check for madvise() and posix_madvise() in configure and supply qemu_madvise()
as wrapper. Prefer madvise() over posix_madvise() due to flag availability.
Convert all callers to use qemu_madvise() and QEMU_MADV_*.
Note that on Solaris the warning is fixed by moving the madvise() prototype,
not by qemu_madvise() itself. It helps with porting though, and it simplifies
most call sites.
v7 -> v8:
* Some versions of MinGW have no sys/mman.h header. Reported by Blue Swirl.
v6 -> v7:
* Adopt madvise() rather than posix_madvise() semantics for returning errors.
* Use EINVAL in place of ENOTSUP.
v5 -> v6:
* Replace two leftover instances of POSIX_MADV_NORMAL with QEMU_MADV_INVALID.
Spotted by Blue Swirl.
v4 -> v5:
* Introduce QEMU_MADV_INVALID, suggested by Alexander Graf.
Note that this relies on -1 not being a valid advice value.
v3 -> v4:
* Eliminate #ifdefs at qemu_advise() call sites. Requested by Blue Swirl.
This will currently break the check in kvm-all.c by calling madvise() with
a supported flag, which will not fail. Ideas/patches welcome.
v2 -> v3:
* Reuse the *_MADV_* defines for QEMU_MADV_*. Suggested by Alexander Graf.
* Add configure check for madvise(), too.
Add defines to Makefile, not QEMU_CFLAGS.
Convert all callers, untested. Suggested by Blue Swirl.
* Keep Solaris' madvise() prototype around. Pointed out by Alexander Graf.
* Display configure check results.

QEMU uses a fixed page size for the CPU TLB. If the guest uses large
pages then we effectively split these into multiple smaller pages, and
populate the corresponding TLB entries on demand.
When the guest invalidates the TLB by virtual address we must invalidate
all entries covered by the large page. However the address used to
invalidate the entry may not be present in the QEMU TLB, so we do not
know which regions to clear.
Implementing a full vaiable size TLB is hard and slow, so just keep a
simple address/mask pair to record which addresses may have been mapped by
large pages. If the guest invalidates this region then flush the
whole TLB.

This grand cleanup drops all reset and vmsave/load related
synchronization points in favor of four(!) generic hooks:
- cpu_synchronize_all_states in qemu_savevm_state_complete
(initial sync from kernel before vmsave)
- cpu_synchronize_all_post_init in qemu_loadvm_state
(writeback after vmload)
- cpu_synchronize_all_post_init in main after machine init
- cpu_synchronize_all_post_reset in qemu_system_reset
(writeback after system reset)
These writeback points + the existing one of VCPU exec after
cpu_synchronize_state map on three levels of writeback:
- KVM_PUT_RUNTIME_STATE (during runtime, other VCPUs continue to run)
- KVM_PUT_RESET_STATE (on synchronous system reset, all VCPUs stopped)
- KVM_PUT_FULL_STATE (on init or vmload, all VCPUs stopped as well)
This level is passed to the arch-specific VCPU state writing function
that will decide which concrete substates need to be written. That way,
no writer of load, save or reset functions that interact with in-kernel
KVM states will ever have to worry about synchronization again. That
also means that a lot of reasons for races, segfaults and deadlocks are
eliminated.
cpu_synchronize_state remains untouched, just as Anthony suggested. We
continue to need it before reading or writing of VCPU states that are
also tracked by in-kernel KVM subsystems.
Consequently, this patch removes many cpu_synchronize_state calls that
are now redundant, just like remaining explicit register syncs.

The default action of coalesced MMIO is, cache the writing in buffer, until:
1. The buffer is full.
2. Or the exit to QEmu due to other reasons.
But this would result in a very late writing in some condition.
1. The each time write to MMIO content is small.
2. The writing interval is big.
3. No need for input or accessing other devices frequently.
This issue was observed in a experimental embbed system. The test image
simply print "test" every 1 seconds. The output in QEmu meets expectation,
but the output in KVM is delayed for seconds.
Per Avi's suggestion, I hooked flushing coalesced MMIO buffer in VGA update

kqemu introduces a number of restrictions on the i386 target. The worst is that
it prevents large memory from working in the default build.
Furthermore, kqemu is fundamentally flawed in a number of ways. It relies on
the TSC as a time source which will not be reliable on a multiple processor
system in userspace. Since most modern processors are multicore, this severely
limits the utility of kqemu.
kvm is a viable alternative for people looking to accelerate qemu and has the
benefit of being supported by the upstream Linux kernel. If someone can
implement work arounds to remove the restrictions introduced by kqemu, I'm
happy to avoid and/or revert this patch.
N.B. kqemu will still function in the 0.11 series but this patch removes it from
the 0.12 series.
Paul, please Ack or Nack this patch.

On Win32 the setvbuf function requires the last parameter to be size between 2 and INT_MAX bytes, so the calls always failed. Since the whole point of the calls is to set line-buffered mode for the file handle and that's not supported on Win32 anyway, conditionally remove them.

Use static empty variable s_cputlb_empty_entry to clear entries,
also reset addend member when clearing entries.
This helps running with valgrind/memcheck

Maximum alignment for Win32 is 16, so don't try
to set it to 32. Otherwise the compiler complains:
exec.c:102: warning: alignment of 'code_gen_prologue'
is greater than maximum object file alignment. Using 16
