[PATCH v3 01/13] KVM: ARM: Introduce KVM_SET_DEVICE_ADDRESS ioctl

On ARM (and possibly other architectures) some bits are specific to the
model being emulated for the guest and user space needs a way to tell
the kernel about those bits.  An example is mmio device base addresses,
where KVM must know the base address for a given device to properly
emulate mmio accesses within a certain address range or directly map a
device with virtualiation extensions into the guest address space.

We try to make this API slightly more generic than for our specific use,
but so far only the VGIC uses this feature.

+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_device_address (in)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error

+  E2BIG:  Address outside guest physical address space

+
+Specify a device address in the guest's physical address space where guests
+can access emulated or directly exposed devices, which the host kernel needs
+to know about. The id field is an architecture specific identifier for a
+specific device.
+
+ARM divides the id field into two parts, a device id and an address type id
+specific to the individual device.
+
+  bits:  | 31    ...    16 | 15    ...    0 |
+  field: |     device id   |  addr type id  |
+
+ARM currently only require this when using the in-kernel GIC support for the
+hardware vGIC features, using KVM_ARM_DEVICE_VGIC_V2 as the device id.  When
+setting the base address for the guest's mapping of the vGIC virtual CPU
+and distributor interface, the ioctl must be called after calling
+KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, but before calling KVM_RUN on any of the VCPUs.  Calling
+this ioctl twice for any of the base addresses will return -EEXIST.
