We now added a new set of clock-related msrs in replacement of the old
ones. In theory, we could just try to use them and get a return value
indicating they do not exist, due to our use of kvm_write_msr_save.
However, kvm clock registration happens very early, and if we ever
try to write to a non-existant MSR, we raise a lethal #GP, since our
idt handlers are not in place yet.
So this patch tests for a cpuid feature exported by the host to
decide which set of msrs are supported.

Right now, we were using individual KVM_CAP entities to communicate
userspace about which cpuids we support. This is suboptimal, since it
generates a delay between the feature arriving in the host, and
being available at the guest.
A much better mechanism is to list para features in KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID.
This makes userspace automatically aware of what we provide. And if we
ever add a new cpuid bit in the future, we have to do that again,
which create some complexity and delay in feature adoption.

In recent stress tests, it was found that pvclock-based systems
could seriously warp in smp systems. Using ingo's time-warp-test.c,
I could trigger a scenario as bad as 1.5mi warps a minute in some systems.
(to be fair, it wasn't that bad in most of them). Investigating further, I
found out that such warps were caused by the very offset-based calculation
pvclock is based on.
This happens even on some machines that report constant_tsc in its tsc flags,
specially on multi-socket ones.
Two reads of the same kernel timestamp at approx the same time, will likely
have tsc timestamped in different occasions too. This means the delta we
calculate is unpredictable at best, and can probably be smaller in a cpu
that is legitimately reading clock in a forward ocasion.
Some adjustments on the host could make this window less likely to happen,
but still, it pretty much poses as an intrinsic problem of the mechanism.
A while ago, I though about using a shared variable anyway, to hold clock
last state, but gave up due to the high contention locking was likely
to introduce, possibly rendering the thing useless on big machines. I argue,
however, that locking is not necessary.
We do a read-and-return sequence in pvclock, and between read and return,
the global value can have changed. However, it can only have changed
by means of an addition of a positive value. So if we detected that our
clock timestamp is less than the current global, we know that we need to
return a higher one, even though it is not exactly the one we compared to.
OTOH, if we detect we're greater than the current time source, we atomically
replace the value with our new readings. This do causes contention on big
boxes (but big here means *BIG*), but it seems like a good trade off, since
it provide us with a time source guaranteed to be stable wrt time warps.
After this patch is applied, I don't see a single warp in time during 5 days
of execution, in any of the machines I saw them before.

This patch removes one padding byte and transform it into a flags
field. New versions of guests using pvclock will query these flags
upon each read.
Flags, however, will only be interpreted when the guest decides to.
It uses the pvclock_valid_flags function to signal that a specific
set of flags should be taken into consideration. Which flags are valid
are usually devised via HV negotiation.

This patch fixes a bug in the KVM efer-msr write path. If a
guest writes to a reserved efer bit the set_efer function
injects the #GP directly. The architecture dependent wrmsr
function does not see this, assumes success and advances the
rip. This results in a #GP in the guest with the wrong rip.
This patch fixes this by reporting efer write errors back to
the architectural wrmsr function.

Per document, for feature control MSR:
Bit 1 enables VMXON in SMX operation. If the bit is clear, execution
of VMXON in SMX operation causes a general-protection exception.
Bit 2 enables VMXON outside SMX operation. If the bit is clear, execution
of VMXON outside SMX operation causes a general-protection exception.
This patch is to enable this kind of check with SMX for VMXON in KVM.

This patch adds support for writeable power supply properties and
exposes them as writeable to sysfs.
A power supply implementation must implement two new function calls in
order to use that feature:
int set_property(struct power_supply *psy,
enum power_supply_property psp,
const union power_supply_propval *val);
int property_is_writeable(struct power_supply *psy,
enum power_supply_property psp);

This fixes "gave up waiting for init of module libcrc32c." which
happened at boot time due to multiple parallel module loads.
The problem was a deadlock: we wait for a module to finish
initializing, but we keep the module_lock mutex so it can't complete.
In particular, this could reasonably happen if a module does a
request_module() in its initialization routine.
So we change use_module() to return an errno rather than a bool, and if
it's -EBUSY we drop the lock and wait in the caller, then reaquire the
lock.

The patch below works fine (at least with Debian). It needs your first
patch that moves the definitions to mod_devicetable.h. Verified that
aliases for these modules are generated correctly:
drivers/media/radio/radio-sf16fmi.c
drivers/net/ne.c
drivers/net/3c515.c
drivers/net/smc-ultra.c
drivers/pcmcia/i82365.c
drivers/scsi/aha1542.c
drivers/scsi/aha152x.c
drivers/scsi/sym53c416.c
drivers/scsi/g_NCR5380.c
Tested with RTL8019AS (ne), AVA-1505AE (aha152x) and dtc436e (g_NCR5380)
cards - they now work automatically.

WARN() is used in some places to report firmware or hardware bugs that
are then worked-around. These bugs do not affect the stability of the
kernel and should not set the flag for TAINT_WARN. To allow for this,
add WARN_TAINT() and WARN_TAINT_ONCE() macros that take a taint number
as argument.
Architectures that implement warnings using trap instructions instead
of calls to warn_slowpath_*() now implement __WARN_TAINT(taint)
instead of __WARN().

These are akin to the blkcipher_walk helpers.
The main differences in the async variant are:
1) Only physical walking is supported. We can't hold on to
kmap mappings across the async operation to support virtual
ablkcipher_walk operations anyways.
2) Bounce buffers used for async more need to be persistent and
freed at a later point in time when the async op completes.
Therefore we maintain a list of writeback buffers and require
that the ablkcipher_walk user call the 'complete' operation
so we can copy the bounce buffers out to the real buffers and
free up the bounce buffer chunks.
These interfaces will be used by the new Niagara2 crypto driver.
