    KVM: MIPS: Abstract guest CP0 register access for VZ · a27660f3
    James Hogan authored
    Abstract the MIPS KVM guest CP0 register access macros into inline
    functions which are generated by macros. This allows them to be
    generated differently for VZ, where they will usually need to access the
    hardware guest CP0 context rather than the saved values in RAM.
    
    Accessors for each individual register are generated using these macros:
    
     - __BUILD_KVM_*_SW() for registers which are not present in the VZ
       hardware guest context, so kvm_{read,write}_c0_guest_##name() will
       access the saved value in RAM regardless of whether VZ is enabled.
    
     - __BUILD_KVM_*_HW() for registers which are present in the VZ hardware
       guest context, so kvm_{read,write}_c0_guest_##name() will access the
       hardware register when VZ is enabled.
    
    These build the underlying accessors using further macros:
    
     - __BUILD_KVM_*_SAVED() builds e.g. kvm_{read,write}_sw_gc0_##name()
       functions for accessing the saved versions of the registers in RAM.
       This is used for implementing the common
       kvm_{read,write}_c0_guest_##name() accessors with T&E where registers
       are always stored in RAM, but are also available with VZ HW registers
       to allow them to be accessed while saved.
    
     - __BUILD_KVM_*_VZ() builds e.g. kvm_{read,write}_vz_gc0_##name()
       functions for accessing the VZ hardware guest context registers
       directly. This is used for implementing the common
       kvm_{read,write}_c0_guest_##name() accessors with VZ.
    
     - __BUILD_KVM_*_WRAP() builds wrappers with different names, which
       allows the common kvm_{read,write}_c0_guest_##name() functions to be
       implemented using the VZ accessors while still having the SAVED
       accessors available too.
    
     - __BUILD_KVM_SAVE_VZ() builds functions for saving and restoring VZ
       hardware guest context register state to RAM, improving conciseness
       of VZ context saving and restoring.
    
    Similar macros exist for generating modifiers (set, clear, change),
    either with a normal unlocked read/modify/write, or using atomic LL/SC
    sequences.
    
    These changes change the types of 32-bit registers to u32 instead of
    unsigned long, which requires some changes to printk() functions in MIPS
    KVM.
