KVM: MIPS: Implement HYPCALL emulation

Emulate the HYPCALL instruction added in the VZ ASE and used by the MIPS
paravirtualised guest support that is already merged. The new hypcall.c
handles arguments and the return value. No actual hypercalls are yet
supported, but this still allows us to safely step over hypercalls and
set an error code in the return value for forward compatibility.

Non-zero HYPCALL codes are not handled.

We also document the hypercall ABI which asm/kvm_para.h uses.

MIPS:
KVM hypercalls use the HYPCALL instruction with code 0 and the hypercall
number in $2 (v0). Up to four arguments may be placed in $4-$7 (a0-a3) and
the return value is placed in $2 (v0).
