 "Here is the big set of char/misc and other driver subsystem patches
  for 4.15-rc1.

  There are small changes all over here, hyperv driver updates, pcmcia
  driver updates, w1 driver updats, vme driver updates, nvmem driver
  updates, and lots of other little one-off driver updates as well. The
  shortlog has the full details.

The x86_hyper pointer is only used for checking whether a virtual
device is supporting the hypervisor the system is running on.

Use an enum for that purpose instead and drop the x86_hyper pointer.

Hyper-V allows the guest to report panic and the guest can pass additional
information. All this is logged on the host. Currently Linux is passing back
information that is not particularly useful. Make the following changes:

1. Windows uses crash MSR P0 to report bugcheck code. Follow the same
convention for Linux as well.
2. It will be useful to know the gust ID of the Linux guest that has
paniced. Pass back this information.

These changes will help in better supporting Linux on Hyper-V

<title>x86/hyperv: Fix hypercalls with extended CPU ranges for TLB flushing</title>

Do not consider the fixed size of hv_vp_set when passing the variable
header size to hv_do_rep_hypercall().

The Hyper-V hypervisor specification states that for a hypercall with a
variable header only the size of the variable portion should be supplied
via the input control.

For HVCALL_FLUSH_VIRTUAL_ADDRESS_SPACE_EX/LIST_EX calls that means the
fixed portion of hv_vp_set should not be considered.

That fixes random failures of some applications that are unexpectedly
killed with SIGBUS or SIGSEGV.

<title>x86/hyperv: Don't use percpu areas for pcpu_flush/pcpu_flush_ex structures</title>

hv_do_hypercall() does virt_to_phys() translation and with some configs
(CONFIG_SLAB) this doesn't work for percpu areas, we pass wrong memory to
hypervisor and get #GP. We could use working slow_virt_to_phys() instead
but doing so kills the performance.

Move pcpu_flush/pcpu_flush_ex structures out of percpu areas and
allocate memory on first call. The additional level of indirection gives
us a small performance penalty, in future we may consider introducing
hypercall functions which avoid virt_to_phys() conversion and cache
physical addresses of pcpu_flush/pcpu_flush_ex structures somewhere.

hv_flush_pcpu_ex structures are not cleared between calls for performance
reasons (they're variable size up to PAGE_SIZE each) but we must clear
hv_vp_set.bank_contents part of it to avoid flushing unneeded vCPUs. The
rest of the structure is formed correctly.

To do the clearing in an efficient way stash the maximum possible vCPU
number (this may differ from Linux CPU id).

Hyper-V hosts may support more than 64 vCPUs, we need to use
HVCALL_FLUSH_VIRTUAL_ADDRESS_SPACE_EX/LIST_EX hypercalls in this
case.

<title>x86/hyper-v: Use hypercall for remote TLB flush</title>

<content type='text'>
Hyper-V host can suggest us to use hypercall for doing remote TLB flush,
this is supposed to work faster than IPIs.

Implementation details: to do HvFlushVirtualAddress{Space,List} hypercalls
we need to put the input somewhere in memory and we don't really want to
have memory allocation on each call so we pre-allocate per cpu memory areas
on boot.

pv_ops patching is happening very early so we need to separate
hyperv_setup_mmu_ops() and hyper_alloc_mmu().

It is possible and easy to implement local TLB flushing too and there is
even a hint for that. However, I don't see a room for optimization on the
host side as both hypercall and native tlb flush will result in vmexit. The
hint is also not set on modern Hyper-V versions.

To support implementing remote TLB flushing on Hyper-V with a hypercall
we need to make vp_index available outside of vmbus module. Rename and
globalize.
