Subject[PATCH v3 05/13] KVM: Introduce a new guest mapping API
Date
In KVM, specially for nested guests, there is a dominant pattern of:

=> map guest memory -> do_something -> unmap guest memory

In addition to all this unnecessarily noise in the code due to boiler plate
code, most of the time the mapping function does not properly handle memory
that is not backed by "struct page". This new guest mapping API encapsulate
most of this boiler plate code and also handles guest memory that is not
backed by "struct page".

Keep in mind that memremap is horribly slow, so this mapping API should not
be used for high-frequency mapping operations. But rather for low-frequency
mappings.

v1 -> v2:
- Drop the caching optimization (pbonzini)
- Use 'hva' instead of 'kaddr' (pbonzini)
- Return 0/-EINVAL/-EFAULT instead of true/false. -EFAULT will be used for
AMD patch (pbonzini)
- Introduce __kvm_map_gfn which accepts a memory slot and use it (pbonzini)
- Only clear map->hva instead of memsetting the whole structure.
- Drop kvm_vcpu_map_valid since it is no longer used.
- Fix EXPORT_MODULE naming.
