The use of any sort of waitqueue (simple or regular) for
wait/waking vcpus has always been an overkill and semantically
wrong. Because this is per-vcpu (which is blocked) there is
only ever a single waiting vcpu, thus no need for any sort of
queue.
As such, make use of the rcuwait primitive, with the following
considerations:
- rcuwait already provides the proper barriers that serialize
concurrent waiter and waker.
- Task wakeup is done in rcu read critical region, with a
stable task pointer.
- Because there is no concurrency among waiters, we need
not worry about rcuwait_wait_event() calls corrupting
the wait->task. As a consequence, this saves the locking
done in swait when modifying the queue. This also applies
to per-vcore wait for powerpc kvm-hv.
The x86 tscdeadline_latency test mentioned in 8577370fb0
("KVM: Use simple waitqueue for vcpu->wq") shows that, on avg,
latency is reduced by around 15-20% with this change.

KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL is a per-VM capability that lets userspace
control the halt-polling time, allowing halt-polling to be tuned or
disabled on particular VMs.
With dynamic halt-polling, a VM's VCPUs can poll from anywhere from
[0, halt_poll_ns] on each halt. KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL sets the
upper limit on the poll time.

In earlier versions of kvm, 'kvm_run' was an independent structure
and was not included in the vcpu structure. At present, 'kvm_run'
is already included in the vcpu structure, so the parameter
'kvm_run' is redundant.
This patch simplifies the function definition, removes the extra
'kvm_run' parameter, and extracts it from the 'kvm_vcpu' structure
if necessary.

Check that the resolved slot (somewhat confusingly named 'start') is a
valid/allocated slot before doing the final comparison to see if the
specified gfn resides in the associated slot. The resolved slot can be
invalid if the binary search loop terminated because the search index
was incremented beyond the number of used slots.
This bug has existed since the binary search algorithm was introduced,
but went unnoticed because KVM statically allocated memory for the max
number of slots, i.e. the access would only be truly out-of-bounds if
all possible slots were allocated and the specified gfn was less than
the base of the lowest memslot. Commit 36947254e5 ("KVM: Dynamically
size memslot array based on number of used slots") eliminated the "all
possible slots allocated" condition and made the bug embarrasingly easy
to hit.

It could take kvm->mmu_lock for an extended period of time when
enabling dirty log for the first time. The main cost is to clear
all the D-bits of last level SPTEs. This situation can benefit from
manual dirty log protect as well, which can reduce the mmu_lock
time taken. The sequence is like this:
1. Initialize all the bits of the dirty bitmap to 1 when enabling
dirty log for the first time
2. Only write protect the huge pages
3. KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG returns the dirty bitmap info
4. KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG will clear D-bit for each of the leaf level
SPTEs gradually in small chunks

Now that the memslot logic doesn't assume memslots are always non-NULL,
dynamically size the array of memslots instead of unconditionally
allocating memory for the maximum number of memslots.
Note, because a to-be-deleted memslot must first be invalidated, the
array size cannot be immediately reduced when deleting a memslot.
However, consecutive deletions will realize the memory savings, i.e.
a second deletion will trim the entry.

Refactor memslot handling to treat the number of used slots as the de
facto size of the memslot array, e.g. return NULL from id_to_memslot()
when an invalid index is provided instead of relying on npages==0 to
detect an invalid memslot. Rework the sorting and walking of memslots
in advance of dynamically sizing memslots to aid bisection and debug,
e.g. with luck, a bug in the refactoring will bisect here and/or hit a
WARN instead of randomly corrupting memory.
Alternatively, a global null/invalid memslot could be returned, i.e. so
callers of id_to_memslot() don't have to explicitly check for a NULL
memslot, but that approach runs the risk of introducing difficult-to-
debug issues, e.g. if the global null slot is modified. Constifying
the return from id_to_memslot() to combat such issues is possible, but
would require a massive refactoring of arch specific code and would
still be susceptible to casting shenanigans.
Add function comments to update_memslots() and search_memslots() to
explicitly (and loudly) state how memslots are sorted.
Opportunistically stuff @hva with a non-canonical value when deleting a
private memslot on x86 to detect bogus usage of the freed slot.

Rework kvm_get_dirty_log() so that it "returns" the associated memslot
on success. A future patch will rework memslot handling such that
id_to_memslot() can return NULL, returning the memslot makes it more
obvious that the validity of the memslot has been verified, i.e.
precludes the need to add validity checks in the arch code that are
technically unnecessary.
To maintain ordering in s390, move the call to kvm_arch_sync_dirty_log()
from s390's kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() to the new kvm_get_dirty_log().
This is a nop for PPC, the only other arch that doesn't select
KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG_READ_PROTECT, as its sync_dirty_log() is empty.
Ideally, moving the sync_dirty_log() call would be done in a separate
patch, but it can't be done in a follow-on patch because that would
temporarily break s390's ordering. Making the move in a preparatory
patch would be functionally correct, but would create an odd scenario
where the moved sync_dirty_log() would operate on a "different" memslot
due to consuming the result of a different id_to_memslot(). The
memslot couldn't actually be different as slots_lock is held, but the
code is confusing enough as it is, i.e. moving sync_dirty_log() in this
patch is the lesser of all evils.

Move the implementations of KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG and KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG
for CONFIG_KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG_READ_PROTECT into common KVM code.
The arch specific implemenations are extremely similar, differing
only in whether the dirty log needs to be sync'd from hardware (x86)
and how the TLBs are flushed. Add new arch hooks to handle sync
and TLB flush; the sync will also be used for non-generic dirty log
support in a future patch (s390).
The ulterior motive for providing a common implementation is to
eliminate the dependency between arch and common code with respect to
the memslot referenced by the dirty log, i.e. to make it obvious in the
code that the validity of the memslot is guaranteed, as a future patch
will rework memslot handling such that id_to_memslot() can return NULL.

From Boris Ostrovsky:
The KVM hypervisor may provide a guest with ability to defer remote TLB
flush when the remote VCPU is not running. When this feature is used,
the TLB flush will happen only when the remote VPCU is scheduled to run
again. This will avoid unnecessary (and expensive) IPIs.
Under certain circumstances, when a guest initiates such deferred action,
the hypervisor may miss the request. It is also possible that the guest
may mistakenly assume that it has already marked remote VCPU as needing
a flush when in fact that request had already been processed by the
hypervisor. In both cases this will result in an invalid translation
being present in a vCPU, potentially allowing accesses to memory locations
in that guest's address space that should not be accessible.
Note that only intra-guest memory is vulnerable.
The five patches address both of these problems:
1. The first patch makes sure the hypervisor doesn't accidentally clear
a guest's remote flush request
2. The rest of the patches prevent the race between hypervisor
acknowledging a remote flush request and guest issuing a new one.
