This is the host part of kvm clocksource implementation. As it does
not include clockevents, it is a fairly simple implementation. We
only have to register a per-vcpu area, and start writing to it periodically.
The area is binary compatible with xen, as we use the same shadow_info
structure.

The generic x86 code has to know if the specific implementation uses Nested
Paging. In the generic code Nested Paging is called Two Dimensional Paging
(TDP) to avoid confusion with (future) TDP implementations of other vendors.
This patch exports the availability of TDP to the generic x86 code.

To allow TLB entries to be retained across VM entry and VM exit, the VMM
can now identify distinct address spaces through a new virtual-processor ID
(VPID) field of the VMCS.

When executing a test program called "crashme", we found the KVM guest cannot
survive more than ten seconds, then encounterd kernel panic. The basic concept
of "crashme" is generating random assembly code and trying to execute it.
After some fixes on emulator insn validity judgment, we found it's hard to
get the current emulator handle the invalid instructions correctly, for the
#UD trap for hypercall patching caused troubles. The problem is, if the opcode
itself was OK, but combination of opcode and modrm_reg was invalid, and one
operand of the opcode was memory (SrcMem or DstMem), the emulator will fetch
the memory operand first rather than checking the validity, and may encounter
an error there. For example, ".byte 0xfe, 0x34, 0xcd" has this problem.
In the patch, we simply check that if the invalid opcode wasn't vmcall/vmmcall,
then return from emulate_instruction() and inject a #UD to guest. With the
patch, the guest had been running for more than 12 hours.

Since gfn_to_page() is a sleeping function, and we want to make the core mmu
spinlocked, we need to pass the page from the walker context (which can sleep)
to the shadow context (which cannot).

Add a facility to report on accesses to the local apic tpr even if the
local apic is emulated in the kernel. This is basically a hack that
allows userspace to patch Windows which tends to bang on the tpr a lot.

This paves the way for multiple architecture support. Note that while
ioapic.c could potentially be shared with ia64, it is also moved.
