KVM: PPC: Disable NX for old magic page using guests
Old guests try to use the magic page, but map their trampoline code inside of an NX region. Since we can't fix those old kernels, try to detect whether the guest is sane or not. If not, just disable NX functionality in KVM so that old guests at least work at all. For newer guests, add a bit that we can set to keep NX functionality available.

The following enhancements to the magic page are currently available:
KVM_MAGIC_FEAT_SR Maps SR registers r/w in the magic page
+ KVM_MAGIC_FEAT_MAS0_TO_SPRG7 Maps MASn, ESR, PIR and high SPRGs
For enhanced features in the magic page, please check for the existence of the
feature before using them!
+Magic page flags
+================
+
+In addition to features that indicate whether a host is capable of a particular
+feature we also have a channel for a guest to tell the guest whether it's capable
+of something. This is what we call "flags".
+
+Flags are passed to the host in the low 12 bits of the Effective Address.
+
+The following flags are currently available for a guest to expose:
+
+ MAGIC_PAGE_FLAG_NOT_MAPPED_NX Guest handles NX bits correclty wrt magic page
+
MSR bits
