[PATCH v3 RESEND 0/5] Implement Eager Page Splitting for RISC-V

[wang.yechao255 at zte.com.cn]

From: Wang Yechao <wang.yechao255 at zte.com.cn>

Eager Page Splitting is implemented on x86 and ARM. It improves the
performance of dirty logging (used in live migrations) when guest memory
is backed by huge pages.

This series implement Eager Page Splitting for RISC-V. The Implementation
similar to x86 and ARM. It provides two ways to split huge pages in ioctl
context instead of on fault in vCPU context:

- Split huge pages when dirty logging is enabled when
  KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET is not set. This happens when enabling the
  KVM_MEM_LOG_DIRTY_PAGES flag of a memslot, and splits the whole memslot
  into 4K mappings.

- Split huge pages during KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG when
  KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET is set. This happens when enabling dirty log
  in small chunks. It does not split the whole memslot, but only the
  requested chunk range.

Changes in v3 resend:
 - Fix patch format to ensure emails reach the linux-riscv and kvm-riscv
   mailing lists.
 - Move the free pgd_split_page_cache into kvm_arch_destroy_vm().

Changes in v3:
 - Rebase on v7.1 version.
 - Add patch03 to remove the redundant TLB flush operations.

 - Check the kvm->arch.pgd before split huge pages.
 - Align the start address to PMD_SIZE before split.
 - Flushing remote TLBs before Dropping mmu_lock.

Changes in v2:
 - Rename the split_page_cache.
 - Rename the kvm_riscv_split_huge_pages and
   kvm_riscv_split_memory_region.
 - Add lockdep_assert_held check before split huge pages.
 - Update Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt.
