    KVM: Force PPC to define its own rcuwait object · 510958e9

    Do not define/reference kvm_vcpu.wait if __KVM_HAVE_ARCH_WQP is true, and
    instead force the architecture (PPC) to define its own rcuwait object.
    Allowing common KVM to directly access vcpu->wait without a guard makes
    it all too easy to introduce potential bugs, e.g. kvm_vcpu_block(),
    kvm_vcpu_on_spin(), and async_pf_execute() all operate on vcpu->wait, not
    the result of kvm_arch_vcpu_get_wait(), and so may do the wrong thing for
    PPC.
    
    Due to PPC's shenanigans with respect to callbacks and waits (it switches
    to the virtual core's wait object at KVM_RUN!?!?), it's not clear whether
    or not this fixes any bugs.
