 "4.11 is going to be a relatively large release for KVM, with a little
  over 200 commits and noteworthy changes for most architectures.

  ARM:
   - GICv3 save/restore
   - cache flushing fixes
   - working MSI injection for GICv3 ITS
   - physical timer emulation

  MIPS:
   - various improvements under the hood
   - support for SMP guests
   - a large rewrite of MMU emulation. KVM MIPS can now use MMU
     notifiers to support copy-on-write, KSM, idle page tracking,
     swapping, ballooning and everything else. KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM is
     also supported, so that writes to some memory regions can be
     treated as MMIO. The new MMU also paves the way for hardware
     virtualization support.

  PPC:
   - support for POWER9 using the radix-tree MMU for host and guest
   - resizable hashed page table
   - bugfixes.

  s390:
   - expose more features to the guest
   - more SIMD extensions
   - instruction execution protection
   - ESOP2

  x86:
   - improved hashing in the MMU
   - faster PageLRU tracking for Intel CPUs without EPT A/D bits
   - some refactoring of nested VMX entry/exit code, preparing for live
     migration support of nested hypervisors
   - expose yet another AVX512 CPUID bit
   - host-to-guest PTP support
   - refactoring of interrupt injection, with some optimizations thrown
     in and some duct tape removed.
   - remove lazy FPU handling
   - optimizations of user-mode exits
   - optimizations of vcpu_is_preempted() for KVM guests

  generic:
   - alternative signaling mechanism that doesn't pound on
     tsk->sighand->siglock"

Merge the topic branch we're sharing with the kvm-ppc tree.

This adds AUX vectors for the L1I,D, L2 and L3 cache levels
providing for each cache level the size of the cache in bytes
and the geometry (line size and number of ways).

We chose to not use the existing alpha/sh definition which
packs all the information in a single entry per cache level as
it is too restricted to represent some of the geometries used
on POWER.

This merges in the POWER9 radix MMU host and guest support, which
was put into a topic branch because it touches both powerpc and
KVM code.

Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>

This adds two capabilities and two ioctls to allow userspace to
find out about and configure the POWER9 MMU in a guest.  The two
capabilities tell userspace whether KVM can support a guest using
the radix MMU, or using the hashed page table (HPT) MMU with a
process table and segment tables.  (Note that the MMUs in the
POWER9 processor cores do not use the process and segment tables
when in HPT mode, but the nest MMU does).

The KVM_PPC_CONFIGURE_V3_MMU ioctl allows userspace to specify
whether a guest will use the radix MMU or the HPT MMU, and to
specify the size and location (in guest space) of the process
table.

The KVM_PPC_GET_RMMU_INFO ioctl gives userspace information about
the radix MMU.  It returns a list of supported radix tree geometries
(base page size and number of bits indexed at each level of the
radix tree) and the encoding used to specify the various page
sizes for the TLB invalidate entry instruction.

Initially, both capabilities return 0 and the ioctls return -EINVAL,
until the necessary infrastructure for them to operate correctly
is added.

This patch implements P(Presented)/Q(Queued) states for ICS irqs.

When the interrupt is presented, set P. Present if P was not set.
If P is already set, don't present again, set Q.
When the interrupt is EOI'ed, move Q into P (and clear Q). If it is
set, re-present.

The asserted flag used by LSI is also incorporated into the P bit.

When the irq state is saved, P/Q bits are also saved, they need some
qemu modifications to be recognized and passed around to be restored.
KVM_XICS_PENDING bit set and saved should also indicate
KVM_XICS_PRESENTED bit set and saved. But it is possible some old
code doesn't have/recognize the P bit, so when we restore, we set P
for PENDING bit, too.

The idea and much of the code come from Ben.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Highlights include:

   - Support for the kexec_file_load() syscall, which is a prereq for
     secure and trusted boot.

   - Prevent kernel execution of userspace on P9 Radix (similar to
     SMEP/PXN).

   - Sort the exception tables at build time, to save time at boot, and
     store them as relative offsets to save space in the kernel image &
     memory.

   - Allow building the kernel with thin archives, which should allow us
     to build an allyesconfig once some other fixes land.

   - Build fixes to allow us to correctly rebuild when changing the
     kernel endian from big to little or vice versa.

   - Plumbing so that we can avoid doing a full mm TLB flush on P9
     Radix.

   - Initial stack protector support (-fstack-protector).

   - Support for dumping the radix (aka. Linux) and hash page tables via
     debugfs.

   - Fix an oops in cxl coredump generation when cxl_get_fd() is used.

   - Freescale updates from Scott: "Highlights include 8xx hugepage
     support, qbman fixes/cleanup, device tree updates, and some misc
     cleanup."

   - Many and varied fixes and minor enhancements as always.
