6ba6617875 KVM guest: do not batch pte updates from interrupt context
Commit b8bcfe997e made paravirt pte updates synchronous in interrupt
context.

Unfortunately the KVM pv mmu code caches the lazy/nonlazy mode
internally, so a pte update from interrupt context during a lazy mmu
operation can be batched while it should be performed synchronously.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=518022

Drop the internal mode variable and use paravirt_get_lazy_mode(), which
returns the correct state.

d3ac88157c x86, kvm: Fix section mismatches in kvm.c
The function paravirt_ops_setup() has been refering the
variable no_timer_check, which is a __initdata. Thus generates
the following warning. paravirt_ops_setup() function is called
from kvm_guest_init() which is a __init function. So to fix
this we mark paravirt_ops_setup as __init.

The sections-check output that warned us about this was:

   LD      arch/x86/built-in.o
  WARNING: arch/x86/built-in.o(.text+0x166ce): Section mismatch in
  reference from the function paravirt_ops_setup() to the variable
  .init.data:no_timer_check
  The function paravirt_ops_setup() references
  the variable __initdata no_timer_check.
  This is often because paravirt_ops_setup lacks a __initdata
  annotation or the annotation of no_timer_check is wrong.

b407fc57b8 x86/paravirt: flush pending mmu updates on context switch
Impact: allow preemption during lazy mmu updates

If we're in lazy mmu mode when context switching, leave
lazy mmu mode, but remember the task's state in
TIF_LAZY_MMU_UPDATES.  When we resume the task, check this
flag and re-enter lazy mmu mode if its set.

This sets things up for allowing lazy mmu mode while preemptible,
though that won't actually be active until the next change.

f86399396c x86, paravirt_ops: use unsigned long instead of u32 for alloc_p*() pfn args
This patch changes the pfn args from 'u32' to 'unsigned long'
on alloc_p*() functions on paravirt_ops, and the corresponding
implementations for Xen and VMI. The prototypes for CONFIG_PARAVIRT=n
are already using unsigned long, so paravirt.h now matches the prototypes
on asm-x86/pgalloc.h.

It shouldn't result in any changes on generated code on 32-bit, with
or without CONFIG_PARAVIRT. On both cases, 'codiff -f' didn't show any
change after applying this patch.

On 64-bit, there are (expected) binary changes only when CONFIG_PARAVIRT
is enabled, as the patch is really supposed to change the size of the
pfn args.
