KVM: Don't spin on virt instruction faults during reboot
Since vmx blocks INIT signals, we disable virtualization extensions during
reboot. This leads to virtualization instructions faulting; we trap these
faults and spin while the reboot continues.
Unfortunately spinning on a non-preemptible kernel may block a task that
reboot depends on; this causes the reboot to hang.
Fix by skipping over the instruction and hoping for the best.

While we touch this structure, rearrange irqfd fields to make fastpath

This also adds some comments about locking rules and rcu usage in code.
Some notes on the design:
- Use pointer into the rt instead of copying an entry,
to make it possible to use rcu, thus side-stepping
locking complexities. We also save some memory this way.
- Old workqueue code is still used for level irqs.
I don't think we DTRT with level anyway, however,

While not mandated by the spec, Linux relies on NMI being blocked by an
IF-enabling STI. VMX also refuses to enter a guest in this state, at
least on some implementations.
Disallow NMI while blocked by STI by checking for the condition, and
requesting an interrupt window exit if it occurs.

KVM: pre-allocate one more dirty bitmap to avoid vmalloc()
Currently x86's kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() needs to allocate a bitmap by
vmalloc() which will be used in the next logging and this has been causing
bad effect to VGA and live-migration: vmalloc() consumes extra systime,
triggers tlb flush, etc.
This patch resolves this issue by pre-allocating one more bitmap and switching
between two bitmaps during dirty logging.
Performance improvement:
I measured performance for the case of VGA update by trace-cmd.
The result was 1.5 times faster than the original one.
In the case of live migration, the improvement ratio depends on the workload
and the guest memory size. In general, the larger the memory size is the more
benefits we get.
Note:
This does not change other architectures's logic but the allocation size
becomes twice. This will increase the actual memory consumption only when
the new size changes the number of pages allocated by vmalloc().

arch/tile: handle rt_sigreturn() more cleanly
The current tile rt_sigreturn() syscall pattern uses the common idiom
of loading up pt_regs with all the saved registers from the time of
the signal, then anticipating the fact that we will clobber the ABI
"return value" register (r0) as we return from the syscall by setting
the rt_sigreturn return value to whatever random value was in the pt_regs
for r0.
However, this breaks in our 64-bit kernel when running "compat" tasks,
since we always sign-extend the "return value" register to properly
handle returned pointers that are in the upper 2GB of the 32-bit compat
address space. Doing this to the sigreturn path then causes occasional
random corruption of the 64-bit r0 register.
Instead, we stop doing the crazy "load the return-value register"
hack in sigreturn. We already have some sigreturn-specific assembly
code that we use to pass the pt_regs pointer to C code. We extend that
code to also set the link register to point to a spot a few instructions
after the usual syscall return address so we don't clobber the saved r0.
Now it no longer matters what the rt_sigreturn syscall returns, and the
pt_regs structure can be cleanly and completely reloaded.
