KVM: Lazify fpu activation and deactivation
Defer fpu deactivation as much as possible - if the guest fpu is loaded, keep
it loaded until the next heavyweight exit (where we are forced to unload it).
This reduces unnecessary exits.
We also defer fpu activation on clts; while clts signals the intent to use the
fpu, we can't be sure the guest will actually use it.

KVM: PPC: Make large pages work
An SLB entry contains two pieces of information related to size:
1) PTE size
2) SLB size
The L bit defines the PTE be "large" (usually means 16MB),
SLB_VSID_B_1T defines that the SLB should span 1 GB instead of the
default 256MB.
Apparently I messed things up and just put those two in one box,
shaked it heavily and came up with the current code which handles
large pages incorrectly, because it also treats large page SLB entries
as "1TB" segment entries.
This patch splits those two features apart, making Linux guests boot
even when they have > 256MB.

When we get a program interrupt in guest kernel mode, we try to emulate the

If that doesn't fail, we report to the user and try again - at the exact same

instruction, we loop forever.
So let's better go and forward program exceptions to the guest when we don't

To fetch the last instruction we were interrupted on, we enable DR in early

Most of the time this seemed to work, but another CPU can easily flush our
TLB and HTAB which makes us go in the Linux page fault handler which totally
breaks because we still use the guest's SLB entries.
To work around that, let's introduce a second KVM guest mode that defines
that whenever we get a trap, we don't call the Linux handler or go into
the KVM exit code, but just jump over the faulting instruction.
That way a potentially bad lwz doesn't trigger any faults and we can later
on interpret the invalid instruction we fetched as "fetch didn't work".

KVM: avoid taking ioapic mutex for non-ioapic EOIs
When the guest acknowledges an interrupt, it sends an EOI message to the local
apic, which broadcasts it to the ioapic. To handle the EOI, we need to take
the ioapic mutex.
On large guests, this causes a lot of contention on this mutex. Since large
guests usually don't route interrupts via the ioapic (they use msi instead),
this is completely unnecessary.
Avoid taking the mutex by introducing a handled_vectors bitmap. Before taking
the mutex, check if the ioapic was actually responsible for the acked vector.
If not, we can return early.

The following patch defines sigcontext ABI of ColdFire. Due to ISA
restrictions ColdFire needs different rt_sigreturn trampoline.
And due to ColdFire FP registers being 8-bytes instead of 12-bytes on
m68k, sigcontext and fpregset structures should be updated.
Regarding the sc_fpstate[16+6*8] field, it would've been enough 16
bytes to store ColdFire's FP state. To accomodate GLIBC's libSegFault
it would'be been enough 6*8 bytes (room for the 6 non-call-clobbered
FP registers). I set it to 16+6*8 to provide some extra space for any
future changes in the ColdFire FPU.

m68k: Add NPTL support
This patch adds several syscalls, that provide necessary
functionality to support NPTL on m68k/ColdFire.
The syscalls are get_thread_area, set_thread_area, atomic_cmpxchg_32 and
atomic_barrier.
The cmpxchg syscall is required for ColdFire as it doesn't support 'cas'
instruction.
Also a ptrace call PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA is added to allow debugger to
inspect the TLS storage.

m68k: Switch to generic siginfo layout
This patch switches m68k to generic siginfo layout. The custom layout
of m68k's `struct siginfo' had several issues due to not considering
aliasing of members in the union, e.g., _uid32 was at different offsets
in ._kill, ._rt and ._sigchld.

macfb: fix 24-bit visual and stuff
Lots of changes. Remove volatile keywords. Take the advice in the comments
and change video_slot to slot_addr. Factor out fifteen or so "channel >>
8" shifts into three shifts higher up the call graph. Make
csc_setpalette() atomic, pass the correct color values. Check for
ioremap() failure. Add missing break statement, thus fixing 24 bit console
visual (blue background bug). Remove some uninformative printk() noise.
Add a description for powerbook 140/170 graphics.

Cleanup whitespace and code style. Remove unused #includes and prototypes.
Remove obsolete, redundant or misleading comments. Remove dead code and
redundant initialisers.

mac68k: start CUDA early
The valkyriefb driver needs the CUDA to work in order to set the video
mode at boot. So initialise the device earlier, and bring the m68k code
closer to the powermac code.

valkyriefb: various fixes
Valkyriefb and macfb will adopt the same card if they get the chance, so
remove valkyrie support from macfb. Also fix the "valkyriefb: can't do
832x624x8" problem reported by Raylynn Knight some time ago, by adding
vmode 13 support for CONFIG_MAC. Also add vmode 11 since that works too.
Make use of the monitor sense lines on 68k Macs too. Also some cleanups.

But it doesn't hold because mac_var_to_vmode() can return a mode with a
slower pixel clock, even when a match is available. So we end up with this
failure:
using video mode 11 and color mode 0.
valkyriefb: vmode 12 not valid.
valkyriefb: can't set default video mode
valkyriefb: vmode 12 not valid.
Rather than have mac_var_to_mode() return the first reasonable mode it
finds, have it return the mode that is closest to the requested one (or
the mode with the closest longer pixel clock period if there is no exact
match).
