Background: s390x implements Low-Address Protection (LAP). If LAP is
enabled, writing to effective addresses (before any translation)
0-511 and 4096-4607 triggers a protection exception.
So we have subpage protection on the first two pages of every address
space (where the lowcore - the CPU private data resides).
By immediately invalidating the write entry but allowing the caller to
continue, we force every write access onto these first two pages into
the slow path. we will get a tlb fault with the specific accessed
addresses and can then evaluate if protection applies or not.
We have to make sure to ignore the invalid bit if tlb_fill() succeeds.

Commit f0aff0f124 ("cputlb: add assert_cpu_is_self checks") buried
the increment of tlb_flush_count under TLB_DEBUG. This results in
"info jit" always (mis)reporting 0 TLB flushes when !TLB_DEBUG.
Besides, under MTTCG tlb_flush_count is updated by several threads,
so in order not to lose counts we'd either have to use atomic ops
or distribute the counter, which is more scalable.
This patch does the latter by embedding tlb_flush_count in CPUArchState.
The global count is then easily obtained by iterating over the CPU list.
Note that this change also requires updating the accessors to
tlb_flush_count to use atomic_read/set whenever there may be conflicting
accesses (as defined in C11) to it.

As we are going to share FlatView's between AddressSpace's,
and AddressSpaceDispatch is a structure to perform quick lookup
in FlatView, this moves ASD to FlatView.
After previosly open coded ASD rendering, we can also remove
as->next_dispatch as the new FlatView pointer is stored
on a stack and set to an AS atomically.
flatview_destroy() is executed under RCU instead of
address_space_dispatch_free() now.
This makes mem_begin/mem_commit to work with ASD and mem_add with FV
as later on mem_add will be taking FV as an argument anyway.

Every vCPU now uses a separate set of TBs for each set of dynamic
tracing event state values. Each set of TBs can be used by any number of
vCPUs to maximize TB reuse when vCPUs have the same tracing state.
This feature is later used by tracetool to optimize tracing of guest
code events.
The maximum number of TB sets is defined as 2^E, where E is the number
of events that have the 'vcpu' property (their state is stored in
CPUState->trace_dstate).
For this to work, a change on the dynamic tracing state of a vCPU will
force it to flush its virtual TB cache (which is only indexed by
address), and fall back to the physical TB cache (which now contains the
vCPU's dynamic tracing state as part of the hashing function).

In cpu_physical_memory_sync_dirty_bitmap(rb, start, ...), the 2nd
argument 'start' is relative to the start of the ramblock 'rb'. When
it's used to access the dirty memory bitmap of ram_list (i.e.
ram_list.dirty_memory[DIRTY_MEMORY_MIGRATION]->blocks[]), an offset to
the start of all RAM (i.e. rb->offset) should be added to it, which has
however been missed since c/s 6b6712efcc. For a ramblock of host memory
backend whose offset is not zero, cpu_physical_memory_sync_dirty_bitmap()
synchronizes the incorrect part of the dirty memory bitmap of ram_list
to the per ramblock dirty bitmap. As a result, a guest with host
memory backend may crash after migration.
Fix it by adding the offset of ramblock when accessing the dirty memory
bitmap of ram_list in cpu_physical_memory_sync_dirty_bitmap().

Allocating an arbitrarily-sized array of tbs results in either
(a) a lot of memory wasted or (b) unnecessary flushes of the code
cache when we run out of TB structs in the array.
An obvious solution would be to just malloc a TB struct when needed,
and keep the TB array as an array of pointers (recall that tb_find_pc()
needs the TB array to run in O(log n)).
Perhaps a better solution, which is implemented in this patch, is to
allocate TB's right before the translated code they describe. This
results in some memory waste due to padding to have code and TBs in
separate cache lines--for instance, I measured 4.7% of padding in the
used portion of code_gen_buffer when booting aarch64 Linux on a
host with 64-byte cache lines. However, it can allow for optimizations
in some host architectures, since TCG backends could safely assume that
the TB and the corresponding translated code are very close to each
other in memory. See this message by rth for a detailed explanation:
