Currently, the fw_cfg internal API specifies that if an item was set up
with a read callback, the callback must be run each time a byte is read
from the item. This behavior is both wasteful (most items do not have a
read callback set), and impractical for bulk transfers (e.g., DMA read).
At the time of this writing, the only items configured with a callback
are "/etc/table-loader", "/etc/acpi/tables", and "/etc/acpi/rsdp". They
all share the same callback functions: virt_acpi_build_update() on ARM
(in hw/arm/virt-acpi-build.c), and acpi_build_update() on i386 (in
hw/i386/acpi.c). Both of these callbacks are one-shot (i.e. they return
without doing anything at all after the first time they are invoked with
a given build_state; since build_state is also shared across all three
items mentioned above, the callback only ever runs *once*, the first
time either of the listed items is read).
This patch amends the specification for fw_cfg_add_file_callback() to
state that any available read callback will only be invoked once each
time the item is selected. This change has no practical effect on the
current behavior of QEMU, and it enables us to significantly optimize
the behavior of fw_cfg reads during guest firmware setup, eliminating
a large amount of redundant callback checks and invocations.

Move documentation for fw_cfg functions internal to qemufrom
docs/specs/fw_cfg.txt to the fw_cfg.h header file, next to
their prototype declarations, formatted as doc-comments.
NOTE: Documentation for fw_cfg_add_callback() is completely
dropped by this patch, as that function has been eliminated
by commit 023e3148.

From this point forward, any guest-side writes to the fw_cfg
data register will be treated as no-ops. This patch also removes
the unused host-side API function fw_cfg_add_callback(), which
allowed the registration of a callback to be executed each time
the guest completed a full overwrite of a given fw_cfg data item.

We rebase fw_cfg_init_mem() to the new function for compatibility with
current callers.
The behavior of the (big endian) multi-byte data reads is best shown
with a qtest session. Here, we are reading the first six bytes of
the UUID
$ arm-softmmu/qemu-system-arm -M virt -machine accel=qtest \
-qtest stdio -uuid 4600cb32-38ec-4b2f-8acb-81c6ea54f2d8
>>> writew 0x9020008 0x0200
<<< OK
>>> readl 0x9020000
<<< OK 0x000000004600cb32
Remember this is big endian. On big endian machines, it is stored
directly as 0x46 0x00 0xcb 0x32.
On a little endian machine, we have to first swap it, so that it becomes
0x32cb0046. When written to memory, it becomes 0x46 0x00 0xcb 0x32
again.
Reading byte-by-byte works too, of course:
>>> readb 0x9020000
<<< OK 0x0000000000000038
>>> readb 0x9020000
<<< OK 0x00000000000000ec
Here only a single byte is read at a time, so they are read in order
similar to the 1-byte data port that is already in PPC and SPARC
machines.

We are going to introduce a wide data register for fw_cfg, but only for
the MMIO mapped device. The wide data register will also require the
tightening of endiannesses.
However we don't want to touch the I/O port mapped fw_cfg device at all.
Currently QEMU provides a single fw_cfg device type that can handle both
I/O port and MMIO mapping. This flexibility is not actually exploited by
any board in the tree, but it renders restricting the above changes to
MMIO very hard.
Therefore, let's derive two classes from TYPE_FW_CFG: TYPE_FW_CFG_IO and
TYPE_FW_CFG_MEM.
TYPE_FW_CFG_IO incorporates the base I/O port and the related combined
MemoryRegion. (NB: all boards in the tree that use the I/O port mapped
flavor opt for the combined mapping; that is, when the data port overlays
the high address byte of the selector port. Therefore we can drop the
capability to map those I/O ports separately.)
TYPE_FW_CFG_MEM incorporates the base addresses for the MMIO selector and
data registers, and their respective MemoryRegions.
The "realize" and "props" class members are specific to each new derived
class, and become unused for the base class. The base class retains the
"reset" member and the "vmsd" member, because the reset functionality and
the set of migrated data are not specific to the mapping.
The new functions fw_cfg_init_io() and fw_cfg_init_mem() expose the
possible mappings in separation. For now fw_cfg_init() is retained as a
compatibility shim that enforces the above assumptions.

We must assure that the changed bootindex can take effect
when guest is rebooted. So we introduce fw_cfg_machine_reset(),
which change the fw_cfg file's bootindex data using the new
global fw_boot_order list.
