fb0e843a11 xics-kvm: Fix reset function
Currently interrupt priorities are set to 0 (highest) at the very
beginning of the guest execution which is not correct and makes the guest
produce random interrupt error messages such as:
"Interrupt 0x1001 (real) is invalid, disabling it".
This also prevents interrupt states from correct migration.

This initializes priority to 0xFF as the emulated XICS does.

0f20ba62c3 target-ppc: spapr: e500: fix to use cpu_dt_id
This makes use of @cpu_dt_id and related API in:
1. emulated XICS hypercall handlers as they receive fixed CPU indexes;
2. XICS-KVM to enable in-kernel XICS on right CPU;
3. device-tree renderer.

This removes @cpu_index fixup as @cpu_dt_id is used instead so QEMU monitor
can accept command-line CPU indexes again.

This changes kvm_arch_vcpu_id() to use ppc_get_vcpu_dt_id() as at the moment
KVM CPU id and device tree ID are calculated using the same algorithm.

9554233c9b xics-kvm: enable irqfd for MSI
This enables IRQFD support for sPAPR. The feature decreases the latency
of interrupt handling.

To enable IRQFD for MSI, this sets kvm_gsi_direct_mapping to true which
enables direct MSI mapping.

To enable IRQFD for LSI (level triggered INTx interrupts), a PCI host bus
callback is required. The patch for that is coming next.

11ad93f681 xics-kvm: Support for in-kernel XICS interrupt controller
Recent (host) kernels support emulating the PAPR defined "XICS" interrupt
controller system within KVM.  This patch allows qemu to initialize and
configure the in-kernel XICS, and keep its state in sync with qemu's XICS
state as necessary.

This should give considerable performance improvements.  e.g. on a simple
IPI ping-pong test between hardware threads, using qemu XICS gives us
around 5,000 irqs/second, whereas the in-kernel XICS gives us around
70,000 irqs/s on the same hardware configuration.
