Paolo Bonzini 8fff5e374a KVM: s390: fixes and features for kvm/next (3.20)
1. Generic
 - sparse warning (make function static)
 - optimize locking
 - bugfixes for interrupt injection
 - fix MVPG addressing modes
 
 2. hrtimer/wakeup fun
 A recent change can cause KVM hangs if adjtime is used in the host.
 The hrtimer might wake up too early or too late. Too early is fatal
 as vcpu_block will see that the wakeup condition is not met and
 sleep again. This CPU might never wake up again.
 This series addresses this problem. adjclock slowing down the host
 clock will result in too late wakeups. This will require more work.
 In addition to that we also change the hrtimer from REALTIME to
 MONOTONIC to avoid similar problems with timedatectl set-time.
 
 3. sigp rework
 We will move all "slow" sigps to QEMU (protected with a capability that
 can be enabled) to avoid several races between concurrent SIGP orders.
 
 4. Optimize the shadow page table
 Provide an interface to announce the maximum guest size. The kernel
 will use that to make the pagetable 2,3,4 (or theoretically) 5 levels.
 
 5. Provide an interface to set the guest TOD
 We now use two vm attributes instead of two oneregs, as oneregs are
 vcpu ioctl and we don't want to call them from other threads.
 
 6. Protected key functions
 The real HMC allows to enable/disable protected key CPACF functions.
 Lets provide an implementation + an interface for QEMU to activate
 this the protected key instructions.
