    Subject[PATCH 01/11] powerpc/kvm: Reserve capabilities and ioctls for HPT resizing
    Date
    This adds a new powerpc-specific KVM_CAP_SPAPR_RESIZE_HPT capability to
    advertise whether KVM is capable of handling the PAPR extensions for
    resizing the hashed page table during guest runtime.

    At present, HPT resizing is possible with KVM PR without kernel
    modification, since the HPT is managed within qemu. It's not possible yet
    with KVM HV, because the HPT is managed by KVM. At present, qemu has to
    use other capabilities which (by accident) reveal whether PR or HV is in
    use to know if it can advertise HPT resizing capability to the guest.

    To avoid ambiguity with existing kernels, the encoding is a bit odd.
    0 means "unknown" since that's what previous kernels will return
    1 means "HPT resize possible if available if and only if the HPT is allocated in
    userspace, rather than in the kernel". Userspace can check
    KVM_CAP_PPC_ALLOC_HTAB to determine if that's the case. In practice
    this will give the same results as userspace's fallback check.
    2 will mean "HPT resize available and implemented via ioctl()s
    KVM_PPC_RESIZE_HPT_PREPARE and KVM_PPC_RESIZE_HPT_COMMIT"

    For now we always return 1, but the intention is to return 2 once HPT
    resize is implemented for KVM HV.
