MMU to no longer assume that it can always get a struct page for any given gfn.

We don't want to eliminate gfn_to_page() entirely because a number of places
assume they can do gfn_to_page() and then kmap() the results.  When we support
IO memory, gfn_to_page() will fail for IO pages although gfn_to_pfn() will
succeed.

This does not implement support for avoiding reference counting for reserved
RAM or for IO memory.  However, it should make those things pretty straight
forward.

Since we're only introducing new common symbols, I don't think it will break

via additional mapped memory on top of the guest storage. We use an external
interrupt with extint code 0x2603 for host->guest notification.

The hypercall definition uses the diag instruction for issuing a hypercall. The
parameters are written in R2-R7, the hypercall number is written in R1. This is

In order to achieve that, this patch also introduces intercept handling

issued against a vm file descriptor, the interrupt is considered floating.
Floating interrupts may be delivered to any virtual cpu in the configuration.

The following interrupts are supported:
SIGP STOP       - interprocessor signal that stops a remote cpu
SIGP SET PREFIX - interprocessor signal that sets the prefix register of a

INT VIRTIO      - floating interrupt for virtio signalisation
INT SERVICE     - floating interrupt for signalisations from the system
                  service processor

struct kvm_s390_interrupt, which is submitted as ioctl parameter when injecting
an interrupt, also carrys parameter data for interrupts along with the interrupt
type. Interrupts on s390 usually have a state that represents the current
operation, or identifies which device has caused the interruption on s390.

kvm_s390_handle_wait() does handle waitpsw in two flavors: in case of a
disabled wait (that is, disabled for interrupts), we exit to userspace. In case
of an enabled wait we set up a timer that equals the cpu clock comparator value
and sleep on a wait queue.
