Comment on kvm usage: rather than require users to do if (kvm_enabled())
and/or ifdefs, this patch adds an API that, internally, is defined to
stub function on non-kvm build, and checks kvm_enabled for non-kvm
run.
While rest of qemu code still uses if (kvm_enabled()), I think this
approach is cleaner, and we should convert rest of code to it

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.

So far we synchronized any dirty VCPU state back into the kernel before
updating the guest debug state. This was a tribute to a deficite in x86
kernels before 2.6.33. But as this is an arch-dependent issue, it is
better handle in the x86 part of KVM and remove the writeback point for
generic code. This also avoids overwriting the flushed state later on if
user space decides to change some more registers before resuming the
guest.
We furthermore need to reinject guest exceptions via the appropriate
mechanism. That is KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG for older kernels and
KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS for recent ones. Using both mechanisms at the same
time will cause state corruptions.

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
handler. By this way, We don't need vcpu explicit exit to QEmu to
handle this issue.

Recent changes made on_vcpu hit the abort() path, even with the IO thread
disabled. This is because cpu_single_env is no longer set when we call this
function. Although the correct fix is a little bit more complicated that that,
the recent thread in which I proposed qemu_queue_work (which fixes that, btw),
is likely to go on a quite different direction.
So for the benefit of those using guest debugging, I'm proposing this simple

We currently use host endian long types to store information
in the dirty bitmap.
This works reasonably well on Little Endian targets, because the
u32 after the first contains the next 32 bits. On Big Endian this
breaks completely though, forcing us to be inventive here.
So Ben suggested to always use Little Endian, which looks reasonable.
We only have dirty bitmap implemented in Little Endian targets so far
and since PowerPC would be the first Big Endian platform, we can just
as well switch to Little Endian always with little effort without
breaking existing targets.
This is the userspace part of the patch. It shouldn't change anything
for existing targets, but help PowerPC.

Dirty logs currently get written with native "long" size. On little endian
it doesn't matter if we use uint64_t instead though, because we'd still end
up using the right bytes.
On big endian, this does become a bigger problem, so we need to ensure that
kernel and userspace talk the same language, which means getting rid of "long"
and using a defined size instead.
So I decided to use 64 bit types at all times. This doesn't break existing
targets but will in conjunction with a patch I'll send to the KVM ML make
dirty logs work with 32 bit userspace on 64 kernel with big endian.

on_vcpu is a qemu-kvm function that will make sure that a specific
piece of code will run on a requested cpu. We don't need that because
we're restricted to -smp 1 right now, but those days are likely to end soon.
So for the benefit of having qemu-kvm share more code with us, I'm
introducing our own version of on_vcpu(). Right now, we either run
a function on the current cpu, or abort the execution, because it would
mean something is seriously wrong.
As an example code, I "ported" kvm_update_guest_debug to use it,
with some slight differences from qemu-kvm.

Some KVM platforms don't support dirty logging yet, like IA64 and PPC,
so in order to still have screen updates on those, we need to fake it.
This patch just tells the getter function for dirty bitmaps, that all
pages within a slot are dirty when the slot has dirty logging enabled.
That way we can implement dirty logging on those platforms sometime when
it drags down performance, but share the rest of the code with dirty
logging capable platforms.

During startup and after reset we have to synchronize user space to the
in-kernel KVM state. Namely, we need to transfer the VCPU registers when
they change due to VCPU as well as APIC reset.
This patch refactors the required hooks so that kvm_init_vcpu registers
its own per-VCPU reset handler and adds a cpu_synchronize_state to the
APIC reset. That way we no longer depend on the new reset order (and can
drop this disliked interface again) and we can even drop a KVM hook in
main().

User space may only inject interrupts during kvm_arch_pre_run if
ready_for_interrupt_injection is set in kvm_run. But that field is
updated on exit from KVM_RUN, so we must ensure that we enter the
kernel after potentially queuing an interrupt, otherwise we risk to
loose one - like it happens with the current code against latest
kernel modules (since kvm-86) that started to queue only a single
interrupt.
Fix the problem by reordering kvm_cpu_exec.
