RTAS is a hypervisor provided binary blob that a guest loads and
calls into to execute certain functions. It's similar to the
vsyscall page in Linux or the short lived VMCI paravirt interface
from VMware.
The QEMU implementation of the RTAS blob is simply a passthrough
that proxies all RTAS calls to the hypervisor via an hypercall.
While we pass a CPU argument for hypercall handling in QEMU, we
don't pass it for RTAS calls. Since some RTAs calls require
making hypercalls (normally RTAS is implemented as guest code) we
have nasty hacks to allow that.
Add a CPU argument to RTAS call handling so we can more easily
invoke hypercalls just as guest code would.

Enables support for the in-kernel MPIC that thas been merged into the
KVM next branch. This includes irqfd/KVM_IRQ_LINE support from Alex
Graf (along with some other improvements).
Note from Alex regarding kvm_irqchip_create():
On x86, one would call kvm_irqchip_create() to initialize an
in-kernel interrupt controller. That function then goes ahead and
initializes global capability variables as well as the default irq
routing table.
On ppc, we can't call kvm_irqchip_create() because we can have
different types of interrupt controllers. So we want to do all the
things that function would do for us in the in-kernel device init
handler.

The DMAContext is a simple pointer to an AddressSpace that is now always
already available. Make everyone hold the address space directly,
and clean up the DMA API to use the AddressSpace directly.

Fetch the root region from the sPAPRTCETable, and use it to build
an AddressSpace and DMAContext.
Now, everywhere we have a DMAContext we also have access to the
corresponding AddressSpace (either because we create it just before
the DMAContext, or because dma_context_memory's AddressSpace is
trivially address_space_memory).

Now we can stop using a "translating" DMAContext, but we do not yet modify
the sPAPRTCETable users to get an AddressSpace; they keep using the table
via a DMAContext.

The TCE table is currently returned as a DMAContext, and non-type-safe
APIs are called later passing back the DMAContext. Since we want to move
away from DMAContext, use an opaque type instead, and add an accessor
to retrieve the DMAContext from it.

Many of these should be cleaned up with proper qdev-/QOM-ification.
Right now there are many catch-all headers in include/hw/ARCH depending
on cpu.h, and this makes it necessary to compile these files per-target.
However, fixing this does not belong in these patches.
