The behaviour of the Address Translation Mode on Interrupt resource is
not consistently supported by all CPU versions or all KVM versions:
KVM-HV does not support mode 2, and does not support mode 3 on POWER7 or
early POWER9 processesors. KVM PR only supports mode 0. TCG supports all
modes (0, 2, 3). This leads to inconsistencies in guest behaviour and
could cause problems migrating guests.

This was not noticable for Linux guests for a long time because the
kernel only uses modes 0 and 3, and it used to consider AIL-3 to be
advisory in that it would always keep the AIL-0 vectors around. Recent
Linux guests depend on the AIL mode working as specified in order to
support the SCV facility interrupt. If AIL-3 can not be provided, then
Linux must be given an error so it can disable the SCV facility, rather
than silently failing.

Add the ail-mode-3 capability to specify that AIL-3 is supported. AIL-0
is implied as the baseline, and AIL-2 is no longer supported by spapr.
AIL-2 is not known to be used by any software, but support in TCG could
be restored with an ail-mode-2 capability quite easily if a regression
is reported.

Modify the H_SET_MODE Address Translation Mode on Interrupt resource
handler to check capabilities and correctly return error if not
supported.

A heuristic is added for KVM to determine AIL-3 support before the
introduction of a new KVM CAP, because blanket disabling AIL-3 has too
much performance cost.

Since v1:
- Minor cleanups.
- Improve KVM tests to catch the problem POWER9s.
- Use default_caps_with_cpu() to clear the cap for POWER7

Deducing what KVM supports rather than getting it to tell us
explicitly with a cap is usually frowned upon.  However, given the
earlier discussion, I'm satisfied that this is the least bad available
option, at least for now.

BTW this particular test doesn't work as I hoped because we only have
a power9 dd2.0 model.

Adding a 2.2 or 2.3 would be possible. Maybe overkill.  I'll change
the test just to catch all POWER9 for now.

KVM cap has been allocated in the upstream kvm tree now though, so I'll
re-send soon.

Thanks,
Nick

Oh.. yes... IIRC dd2.0 is barely present in the wild, since it doesn't
have vital Spectre mitigations....

... no, given the above, I think we should definitely add the newer
models.  Maybe even remove dd2.0 and replace it with the newer ones.

yes. It's really not a big effort.
