This series adds both riscv32 and riscv64 kvm support, and implements
migration based on riscv. It is based on temporarily unaccepted kvm:
https://github.com/kvm-riscv/linux

Compared to RFC v2, the migration is supported in this series. The new
added migration feature also requires the following patches:
[1]
[PATCH RFC 0/2] Add log dirty support
https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org/msg2284945.html

[2]
[PATCH] target/riscv: raise exception to HS-mode at get_physical_address
https://patchew.org/QEMU/20200824084158.1769-1-jiangyifei@huawei.com/

Several steps to use this:
1. Build emulation
$ ./configure --target-list=riscv64-softmmu
$ make -j$(nproc)

2. Build kernel
https://github.com/kvm-riscv/linux

3. Build QEMU VM
I cross built in riscv toolchain.
$ PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=<toolchain pkgconfig path>
$ export PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR=<toolchain sysroot path>
$ ./configure --target-list=riscv64-softmmu --enable-kvm \
--cross-prefix=riscv64-linux-gnu- --disable-libiscsi --disable-glusterfs \
--disable-libusb --disable-usb-redir --audio-drv-list= --disable-opengl \
--disable-libxml2
$ make -j$(nproc)

4. Start emulation
$ ./qemu-system-riscv64 -M virt -m 4096M -cpu rv64,x-h=true -nographic \
        -name guest=riscv-hyp,debug-threads=on \
        -smp 4 \
        -bios ./fw_jump.bin \
        -kernel ./Image \
        -drive file=./hyp.img,format=raw,id=hd0 \
        -device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd0 \
        -append "root=/dev/vda rw console=ttyS0 earlycon=sbi"

5. Start kvm-acceled QEMU VM in emulation
$ ./qemu-system-riscv64 -M virt,accel=kvm -m 1024M -cpu host -nographic \
        -name guest=riscv-guset \
        -smp 2 \
        -bios none \
        -kernel ./Image \
        -drive file=./guest.img,format=raw,id=hd0 \
        -device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd0 \
        -append "root=/dev/vda rw console=ttyS0 earlycon=sbi"
