This series adds both riscv32 and riscv64 kvm support, and implements
migration based on riscv.

Because of RISC-V KVM has been merged into the Linux master, so this
series are changed from RFC to patch v1.

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

2. Build kernel

3. Build QEMU VM
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"

Changes since RFC v6
- Rebase on recent commit 8627edfb3f1fca24a96a0954148885c3241c10f8
- Sync-up headers with Linux-5.16-rc1

Changes since RFC v5
- Rebase on QEMU v6.1.0-rc1 and kvm-riscv linux v19.
- Move kvm interrupt setting to riscv_cpu_update_mip().
- Replace __u64 with uint64_t.

Changes since RFC v4
- Rebase on QEMU v6.0.0-rc2 and kvm-riscv linux v17.
- Remove time scaling support as software solution is incomplete.
  Because it will cause unacceptable performance degradation. and
  We will post a better solution.
- Revise according to Alistair's review comments.
  - Remove compile time XLEN checks in kvm_riscv_reg_id
  - Surround TYPE_RISCV_CPU_HOST definition by CONFIG_KVM and share
    it between RV32 and RV64.
  - Add kvm-stub.c for reduce unnecessary compilation checks.
  - Add riscv_setup_direct_kernel() to direct boot kernel for KVM.

Changes since RFC v3
- Rebase on QEMU v5.2.0-rc2 and kvm-riscv linux v15.
- Add time scaling support(New patches 13, 14 and 15).
- Fix the bug that guest vm can't reboot.

Changes since RFC v2
- Fix checkpatch error at target/riscv/sbi_ecall_interface.h.
- Add riscv migration support.

Changes since RFC v1
- Add separate SBI ecall interface header.
- Add riscv32 kvm accel support.
