KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: HPT resizing documentation and reserved numbers

This adds a new powerpc-specific KVM_CAP_SPAPR_RESIZE_HPT capability to
advertise whether KVM is capable of handling the PAPR extensions for
resizing the hashed page table during guest runtime.  It also adds
definitions for two new VM ioctl()s to implement this extension, and
documentation of the same.

Note that, HPT resizing is already possible with KVM PR without kernel
modification, since the HPT is managed within userspace (qemu).  The
capability defined here will only be set where an in-kernel implementation
of resizing is necessary, i.e. for KVM HV.  To determine if the userspace
resize implementation can be used, it's necessary to check
KVM_CAP_PPC_ALLOC_HTAB.  Unfortunately older kernels incorrectly set
KVM_CAP_PPC_ALLOC_HTAB even with KVM PR.  If userspace it want to support
resizing with KVM PR on such kernels, it will need a workaround.

4.102 KVM_PPC_RESIZE_HPT_PREPARE
Capability: KVM_CAP_SPAPR_RESIZE_HPT
Architectures: powerpc
Type: vm ioctl
Parameters: struct kvm_ppc_resize_hpt (in)
Returns: 0 on successful completion,
>0 if a new HPT is being prepared, the value is an estimated
number of milliseconds until preparation is complete
-EFAULT if struct kvm_reinject_control cannot be read,
-EINVAL if the supplied shift or flags are invalid
-ENOMEM if unable to allocate the new HPT
-ENOSPC if there was a hash collision when moving existing
HPT entries to the new HPT
-EIO on other error conditions
Used to implement the PAPR extension for runtime resizing of a guest's
Hashed Page Table (HPT). Specifically this starts, stops or monitors
the preparation of a new potential HPT for the guest, essentially
implementing the H_RESIZE_HPT_PREPARE hypercall.
If called with shift > 0 when there is no pending HPT for the guest,
this begins preparation of a new pending HPT of size 2^(shift) bytes.
It then returns a positive integer with the estimated number of
milliseconds until preparation is complete.
If called when there is a pending HPT whose size does not match that
requested in the parameters, discards the existing pending HPT and
creates a new one as above.
If called when there is a pending HPT of the size requested, will:
* If preparation of the pending HPT is already complete, return 0
* If preparation of the pending HPT has failed, return an error
code, then discard the pending HPT.
* If preparation of the pending HPT is still in progress, return an
estimated number of milliseconds until preparation is complete.
If called with shift == 0, discards any currently pending HPT and
returns 0 (i.e. cancels any in-progress preparation).
flags is reserved for future expansion, currently setting any bits in
flags will result in an -EINVAL.
Normally this will be called repeatedly with the same parameters until
it returns <= 0. The first call will initiate preparation, subsequent
ones will monitor preparation until it completes or fails.

4.103 KVM_PPC_RESIZE_HPT_COMMIT
Capability: KVM_CAP_SPAPR_RESIZE_HPT
Architectures: powerpc
Type: vm ioctl
Parameters: struct kvm_ppc_resize_hpt (in)
Returns: 0 on successful completion,
-EFAULT if struct kvm_reinject_control cannot be read,
-EINVAL if the supplied shift or flags are invalid
-ENXIO is there is no pending HPT, or the pending HPT doesn't
have the requested size
-EBUSY if the pending HPT is not fully prepared
-ENOSPC if there was a hash collision when moving existing
HPT entries to the new HPT
-EIO on other error conditions
Used to implement the PAPR extension for runtime resizing of a guest's
Hashed Page Table (HPT). Specifically this requests that the guest be
transferred to working with the new HPT, essentially implementing the
H_RESIZE_HPT_COMMIT hypercall.
This should only be called after KVM_PPC_RESIZE_HPT_PREPARE has
returned 0 with the same parameters. In other cases
KVM_PPC_RESIZE_HPT_COMMIT will return an error (usually -ENXIO or
-EBUSY, though others may be possible if the preparation was started,
but failed).
This will have undefined effects on the guest if it has not already
placed itself in a quiescent state where no vcpu will make MMU enabled
memory accesses.
On succsful completion, the pending HPT will become the guest's active
HPT and the previous HPT will be discarded.
On failure, the guest will still be operating on its previous HPT.
