105f8d40a7 KVM: Calculate available entries in coalesced mmio ring
Instead of checking whether we'll wrap around, calculate how many entries
are available, and check whether we have enough (just one) for the pending
mmio.

By itself, this doesn't change anything, but it paves the way for making
this function lockless.

d76685c4a0 KVM: cleanup io_device code
We modernize the io_device code so that we use container_of() instead of
dev->private, and move the vtable to a separate ops structure
(theoretically allows better caching for multiple instances of the same
ops structure)

787a660a4f KVM: Clean up coalesced_mmio destruction
We invoke kfree() on a data member instead of the structure.  This works today
because the kvm_io_device is the first element of the private structure, but
this could change in the future, so lets clean this up.

5f94c1741b KVM: Add coalesced MMIO support (common part)
This patch adds all needed structures to coalesce MMIOs.
Until an architecture uses it, it is not compiled.

Coalesced MMIO introduces two ioctl() to define where are the MMIO zones that
can be coalesced:

- KVM_REGISTER_COALESCED_MMIO registers a coalesced MMIO zone.
  It requests one parameter (struct kvm_coalesced_mmio_zone) which defines
  a memory area where MMIOs can be coalesced until the next switch to
  user space. The maximum number of MMIO zones is KVM_COALESCED_MMIO_ZONE_MAX.

- KVM_UNREGISTER_COALESCED_MMIO cancels all registered zones inside
  the given bounds (bounds are also given by struct kvm_coalesced_mmio_zone).

The userspace client can check kernel coalesced MMIO availability by asking
ioctl(KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION) for the KVM_CAP_COALESCED_MMIO capability.
The ioctl() call to KVM_CAP_COALESCED_MMIO will return 0 if not supported,
or the page offset where will be stored the ring buffer.
The page offset depends on the architecture.

After an ioctl(KVM_RUN), the first page of the KVM memory mapped points to
a kvm_run structure. The offset given by KVM_CAP_COALESCED_MMIO is
an offset to the coalesced MMIO ring expressed in PAGE_SIZE relatively
to the address of the start of th kvm_run structure. The MMIO ring buffer
is defined by the structure kvm_coalesced_mmio_ring.
