[RFC,00/32] KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Nested HV virtualization

This patch series implements nested virtualization in the KVM-HV
module for radix guests on POWER9 systems.  Unlike PR KVM, nested
guests are able to run in supervisor mode, meaning that performance is
much better than with PR KVM, and is very close to the performance of
a non-nested guest for most things.

The way this works is that each nested guest is also a guest of the
real hypervisor, also known as the level 0 or L0 hypervisor, which
runs in the CPU's hypervisor mode.  Its guests are at level 1, and
when a L1 system wants to run a nested guest, it performs hypercalls
to L0 to set up a virtual partition table in its (L1's) memory and to
enter the L2 guest.  The L0 hypervisor maintains a shadow
partition-scoped page table for the L2 guest and demand-faults entries
into it by translating the L1 real addresses in the partition-scoped
page table in L1 memory into L0 real addresses and puts them in the
shadow partition-scoped page table for L2.

Essentially what this is doing is providing L1 with the ability to do
(some) hypervisor functions using a mix of instruction emulation and
paravirtualization.

Along the way, this implements a new guest entry/exit path for radix
guests on POWER9 systems which is written almost entirely in C and
does not do any of the inter-thread coordination that the existing
entry/exit path does.  It is only used for radix guests and when
indep_threads_mode=Y (the default).

The limitations of the current implementation are:

- Host and all nested hypervisors and their guests must be in radix
  mode.

- Nested hypervisors cannot use indep_threads_mode=N.

- If the host (i.e. the L0 hypervisor) has indep_threads_mode=N then
  only one nested vcpu can be run on any core at any given time; the
  secondary threads will do nothing.
