4c2155ce81 KVM: switch to get_user_pages_fast
Convert gfn_to_pfn to use get_user_pages_fast, which can do lockless
pagetable lookups on x86. Kernel compilation on 4-way guest is 3.7%
faster on VMX.

And it gets in the way of get_user_pages_fast().

49dd2c4928 KVM: powerpc: Map guest userspace with TID=0 mappings
When we use TID=N userspace mappings, we must ensure that kernel mappings have
been destroyed when entering userspace. Using TID=1/TID=0 for kernel/user
mappings and running userspace with PID=0 means that userspace can't access the
kernel mappings, but the kernel can directly access userspace.

The net is that we don't need to flush the TLB on privilege switches, but we do
on guest context switches (which are far more infrequent). Guest boot time
performance improvement: about 30%.

83aae4a809 KVM: ppc: Write only modified shadow entries into the TLB on exit
Track which TLB entries need to be written, instead of overwriting everything
below the high water mark. Typically only a single guest TLB entry will be
modified in a single exit.

Guest boot time performance improvement: about 15%.

20754c2495 KVM: ppc: Stop saving host TLB state
We're saving the host TLB state to memory on every exit, but never using it.
Originally I had thought that we'd want to restore host TLB for heavyweight
exits, but that could actually hurt when context switching to an unrelated host
process (i.e. not qemu).

Since this decreases the performance penalty of all exits, this patch improves
guest boot time by about 15%.

We're not calling kmap() now, so we shouldn't call kunmap() either. This has no
practical effect in the non-highmem case, which is why it hasn't caused more
obvious problems.

bbf45ba57e KVM: ppc: PowerPC 440 KVM implementation
This functionality is definitely experimental, but is capable of running
unmodified PowerPC 440 Linux kernels as guests on a PowerPC 440 host. (Only
tested with 440EP "Bamboo" guests so far, but with appropriate userspace
support other SoC/board combinations should work.)

See Documentation/powerpc/kvm_440.txt for technical details.
