This patch adds support to real-mode KVM to search for a core running in the host partition and send it an IPI message with VCPU to be woken. This avoids having to switch to the host partition to complete an H_IPI hypercall when the VCPU which is the target of the the H_IPI is not loaded (is not running in the guest). The patch also includes the support in the IPI handler running in the host to do the wakeup by calling kvmppc_xics_ipi_action for the PPC_MSG_RM_HOST_ACTION message. When a guest is being destroyed, we need to ensure that there are no pending IPIs waiting to wake up a VCPU before we free the VCPUs of the guest. This is accomplished by: - Forces a PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNCTION IPI to be completed by all CPUs before freeing any VCPUs in kvm_arch_destroy_vm(). - Any PPC_MSG_RM_HOST_ACTION messages must be executed first before any other PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNCTION messages.
