KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Add infrastructure for running HPT guests on radix host
This sets up the machinery for switching a guest between HPT (hashed page table) and radix MMU modes, so that in future we can run a HPT guest on a radix host on POWER9 machines. * The KVM_PPC_CONFIGURE_V3_MMU ioctl can now specify either HPT or radix mode, on a radix host. * The KVM_CAP_PPC_MMU_HASH_V3 capability now returns 1 on POWER9 with HV KVM on a radix host. * The KVM_PPC_GET_SMMU_INFO returns information about the HPT MMU on a radix host. * The KVM_PPC_ALLOCATE_HTAB ioctl on a radix host will switch the guest to HPT mode and allocate a HPT. * For simplicity, we now allocate the rmap array for each memslot, even on a radix host, since it will be needed if the guest switches to HPT mode. * Since we cannot yet run a HPT guest on a radix host, the KVM_RUN ioctl will return an EINVAL error in that case.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
