Use a 32-bit popcnt instruction for __arch_hweight32(), even on
x86-64. Even though the input register will *usually* be
zero-extended due to the standard operation of the hardware, it isn't
necessarily so if the input value was the result of truncating a
64-bit operation.
Note: the POPCNT32 variant used on x86-64 has a technically
unnecessary REX prefix to make it five bytes long, the same as a CALL
instruction, therefore avoiding an unnecessary NOP.

This patch adds logic to kvm/x86 which allows to mark an
injected exception as reinjected. This allows to remove an
ugly hack from svm_complete_interrupts that prevented
exceptions from being reinjected at all in the nested case.
The hack was necessary because an reinjected exception into
the nested guest could cause a nested vmexit emulation. But
reinjected exceptions must not intercept. The downside of
the hack is that a exception that in injected could get
lost.
This patch fixes the problem and puts the code for it into
generic x86 files because. Nested-VMX will likely have the
same problem and could reuse the code.

On SVM we set the instruction length of skipped instructions
to hard-coded, well known values, which could be wrong when (bogus,
but valid) prefixes (REX, segment override) are used.
Newer AMD processors (Fam10h 45nm and better, aka. PhenomII or
AthlonII) have an explicit NEXTRIP field in the VMCB containing the
desired information.
Since it is cheap to do so, we use this field to override the guessed
value on newer processors.
A fix for older CPUs would be rather expensive, as it would require
to fetch and partially decode the instruction. As the problem is not
a security issue and needs special, handcrafted code to trigger
(no compiler will ever generate such code), I omit a fix for older
CPUs.
If someone is interested, I have both a patch for these CPUs as well as
demo code triggering this issue: It segfaults under KVM, but runs
perfectly on native Linux.

Commit fb341f57 removed the pte prefetch on guest invlpg, citing guest races.
However, the SDM is adamant that prefetch is allowed:
"The processor may create entries in paging-structure caches for
translations required for prefetches and for accesses that are a
result of speculative execution that would never actually occur
in the executed code path."
And, in fact, there was a race in the prefetch code: we picked up the pte
without the mmu lock held, so an older invlpg could install the pte over
a newer invlpg.
Reinstate the prefetch logic, but this time note whether another invlpg has
executed using a counter. If a race occured, do not install the pte.

Once upon a time, locked operations were emulated while holding the mmu mutex.
Since mmu pages were write protected, it was safe to emulate the writes in
a non-atomic manner, since there could be no other writer, either in the
guest or in the kernel.
These days emulation takes place without holding the mmu spinlock, so the
write could be preempted by an unshadowing event, which exposes the page
to writes by the guest. This may cause corruption of guest page tables.

This patch introduces a list with all msrs a guest might
have direct access to and changes the svm_vcpu_init_msrpm
function to use this list.
It also adds a check to set_msr_interception which triggers
a warning if a developer changes a msr intercept that is not
in the list.

Moorestown does not have BIOS provided MP tables, we can save some time
by avoiding scaning of these tables. e.g.
[ 0.000000] Scan SMP from c0000000 for 1024 bytes.
[ 0.000000] Scan SMP from c009fc00 for 1024 bytes.

[ 0.000000] Scan SMP from c00bfff0 for 1024 bytes.
Searching EBDA with the base at 0x40E will also result in random pointer

Moorestown PCI code has special handling of devices with fixed BARs. In

Ming has narrowed it down to a comparision issue
between arguments with different sizes and
signs. As result event index reached a wrong
value which in turn led to a GP fault.
At the same time it was found that p4_next_cntr
has broken logic and should return the counter
index only if it was not yet borrowed for
another event.

Do not blindly access extended configuration space unless we actively
know we're on a Moorestown platform. The fixed-size BAR capability
lives in the extended configuration space, and thus is not applicable
if the configuration space isn't appropriately sized.
This fixes booting certain VMware configurations with CONFIG_MRST=y.
Moorestown will add a fake PCI-X 266 capability to advertise the
presence of extended configuration space.

As the processor may not consider GUEST_INTR_STATE_STI as a reason for
blocking NMI, it could return immediately with EXIT_REASON_NMI_WINDOW
when we asked for it. But as we consider this state as NMI-blocking, we
can run into an endless loop.
Resolve this by allowing NMI injection if just GUEST_INTR_STATE_STI is
active (originally suggested by Gleb). Intel confirmed that this is
safe, the processor will never complain about NMI injection in this
state.

The ACPI spec tells us that the firmware will reenable SCI_EN on resume.
Reality disagrees in some cases. The ACPI spec tells us that the only way
to set SCI_EN is via an SMM call.
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13745 shows us that doing so
may break machines. Tracing the ACPI calls made by Windows shows that it
unconditionally sets SCI_EN on resume with a direct register write, and
therefore the overwhelming probability is that everything is fine with
this behaviour.

The BSD ringbuffer support that is landing in this branch
significantly conflicts with the Ironlake PIPE_CONTROL fix on master,
and requires it to be tested successfully anyway.
Currently all fpu state access is through tsk->thread.xstate. Since we wish
to generalize fpu access to non-task contexts, wrap the state in a new
'struct fpu' and convert existing access to use an fpu API.
Signal frame handlers are not converted to the API since they will remain

The fpu code currently uses current->thread_info->status & TS_XSAVE as
a way to distinguish between XSAVE capable processors and older processors.
The decision is not really task specific; instead we use the task status to
avoid a global memory reference - the value should be the same across all
threads.
Eliminate this tie-in into the task structure by using an alternative
instruction keyed off the XSAVE cpu feature; this results in shorter and
faster code, without introducing a global memory reference.

Due to the fact that p4 counters are shared between HT threads
we synthetically divide the whole set of counters into two
non-intersected subsets. And while we're "borrowing" counters
from these subsets we should not be preempted (well, strictly
speaking in p4_hw_config we just pre-set reference to the
subset which allow to save some cycles in schedule routine
if it happens on the same cpu). So use get_cpu/put_cpu pair.
Also p4_pmu_schedule_events should use smp_processor_id rather
than raw_ version. This allow us to catch up preemption issue
(if there will ever be).

Clean up the hypervisor layer and the hypervisor drivers, using an ops

The identity of the hypervisor, if needed, can be tested by testing
the pointer value in x86_hyper.
The MS-HyperV private state is moved into a normal global variable
(it's per-system state, not per-CPU state). Being a normal bss
variable, it will be left at all zero on non-HyperV platforms, and so
can generally be tested for HyperV-specific features without
additional qualification.

Rename perf_event_attr::precise to perf_event_attr::precise_ip and
widen it to 2 bits. This new field describes the required precision of
the PERF_SAMPLE_IP field:
0 - SAMPLE_IP can have arbitrary skid
1 - SAMPLE_IP must have constant skid
2 - SAMPLE_IP requested to have 0 skid
3 - SAMPLE_IP must have 0 skid
And modify the Intel PEBS code accordingly. The PEBS implementation
now supports up to precise_ip == 2, where we perform the IP fixup.
Also s/PERF_RECORD_MISC_EXACT/&_IP/ to clarify its meaning, this bit
should be set for each PERF_SAMPLE_IP field known to match the actual
instruction triggering the event.
This new scheme allows for a PEBS mode that uses the buffer for more
