kvm/x86: Hyper-V synthetic interrupt controller

Browse Source 
SynIC (synthetic interrupt controller) is a lapic extension,
which is controlled via MSRs and maintains for each vCPU
 - 16 synthetic interrupt "lines" (SINT's); each can be configured to
   trigger a specific interrupt vector optionally with auto-EOI
   semantics
 - a message page in the guest memory with 16 256-byte per-SINT message
   slots
 - an event flag page in the guest memory with 16 2048-bit per-SINT
   event flag areas

The host triggers a SINT whenever it delivers a new message to the
corresponding slot or flips an event flag bit in the corresponding area.
The guest informs the host that it can try delivering a message by
explicitly asserting EOI in lapic or writing to End-Of-Message (EOM)
MSR.

The userspace (qemu) triggers interrupts and receives EOM notifications
via irqfd with resampler; for that, a GSI is allocated for each
configured SINT, and irq_routing api is extended to support GSI-SINT
mapping.

Changes v4:
* added activation of SynIC by vcpu KVM_ENABLE_CAP
* added per SynIC active flag
* added deactivation of APICv upon SynIC activation

Changes v3:
* added KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC and KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_HV_SINT notes into
docs

Changes v2:
* do not use posted interrupts for Hyper-V SynIC AutoEOI vectors
* add Hyper-V SynIC vectors into EOI exit bitmap
* Hyper-V SyniIC SINT msr write logic simplified

8.2 KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC
Architectures: x86
This capability, if KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION indicates that it is
available, means that that the kernel has an implementation of the
Hyper-V Synthetic interrupt controller(SynIC). Hyper-V SynIC is
used to support Windows Hyper-V based guest paravirt drivers(VMBus).
In order to use SynIC, it has to be activated by setting this
capability via KVM_ENABLE_CAP ioctl on the vcpu fd. Note that this
will disable the use of APIC hardware virtualization even if supported
by the CPU, as it's incompatible with SynIC auto-EOI behavior.
