Of slab shrinkers, the VM code says:
* Note that 'shrink' will be passed nr_to_scan == 0 when the VM is
* querying the cache size, so a fastpath for that case is appropriate.
and it *means* it. Look at how it calls the shrinkers:
nr_before = (*shrinker->shrink)(0, gfp_mask);
shrink_ret = (*shrinker->shrink)(this_scan, gfp_mask);
So, if you do anything stupid in your shrinker, the VM will doubly
punish you.
The mmu_shrink() function takes the global kvm_lock, then acquires
every VM's kvm->mmu_lock in sequence. If we have 100 VMs, then
we're going to take 101 locks. We do it twice, so each call takes
202 locks. If we're under memory pressure, we can have each cpu
trying to do this. It can get really hairy, and we've seen lock
spinning in mmu_shrink() be the dominant entry in profiles.
This is guaranteed to optimize at least half of those lock
aquisitions away. It removes the need to take any of the locks
when simply trying to count objects.
A 'percpu_counter' can be a large object, but we only have one
of these for the entire system. There are not any better
alternatives at the moment, especially ones that handle CPU
hotplug.

Doing this makes the code much more readable. That's
borne out by the fact that this patch removes code. "used"
also happens to be the number that we need to return back to
the slab code when our shrinker gets called. Keeping this
value as opposed to free makes the next patch simpler.
So, 'struct kvm' is kzalloc()'d. 'struct kvm_arch' is a
structure member (and not a pointer) of 'struct kvm'. That
means they start out zeroed. I _think_ they get initialized
properly by kvm_mmu_change_mmu_pages(). But, that only happens
via kvm ioctls.
Another benefit of storing 'used' intead of 'free' is
that the values are consistent from the moment the structure is
allocated: no negative "used" value.

arch.n_alloc_mmu_pages is a poor choice of name. This value truly
means, "the number of pages which _may_ be allocated". But,
reading the name, "n_alloc_mmu_pages" implies "the number of allocated
mmu pages", which is dead wrong.
It's really the high watermark, so let's give it a name to match:
nr_max_mmu_pages. This change will make the next few patches
much more obvious and easy to read.

"free" is a poor name for this value. In this context, it means,
"the number of mmu pages which this kvm instance should be able to
allocate." But "free" implies much more that the objects are there
and ready for use. "available" is a much better description, especially
when you see how it is calculated.
In this patch, we abstract its use into a function. We'll soon
replace the function's contents by calculating the value in a
different way.
All of the reads of n_free_mmu_pages are taken care of in this
patch. The modification sites will be handled in a patch
later in the series.

Most x86 two operand instructions allow the destination to be a memory operand,
but IMUL (for example) requires that the destination be a register. Change
____emulate_2op() to take a register for both source and destination so we
can invoke IMUL.

When using a relocatable kernel we need to make sure that the trampline code
and the interrupt handlers are both copied to low memory. The only way to do
this reliably is to put them in the copied section.
This patch should make relocated kernels work with KVM.

On Book3S KVM we directly expose some asm pointers to C code as
variables. These need to be relocated and thus break on relocatable
kernels.
To make sure we can at least build, let's mark them as long instead
of u32 where 64bit relocations don't work.
This fixes the following build error:
WARNING: 2 bad relocations^M
> c000000000008590 R_PPC64_ADDR32 .text+0x4000000000008460^M
> c000000000008594 R_PPC64_ADDR32 .text+0x4000000000008598^M
Please keep in mind that actually using KVM on a relocated kernel
might still break. This only fixes the compile problem.

Book3S_32 requires MSR_DR to be disabled during load_up_xxx while on Book3S_64
it's supposed to be enabled. I misread the code and disabled it in both cases,
potentially breaking the PS3 which has a really small RMA.
This patch makes KVM work on the PS3 again.

On Book3s_32 the tlbie instruction flushed effective addresses by the mask
0x0ffff000. This is pretty hard to reflect with a hash that hashes ~0xfff, so
to speed up that target we should also keep a special hash around for it.
