[PATCH 1/13] KVM: userspace interface

[Avi Kivity]

Changes from v1:

- removed #define __user for userspace

Still TODO:

- inode per vcpu
- pseudo filesystem + syscalls?

--

This patch defines a bunch of ioctl()s on /dev/kvm.  The ioctl()s allow adding
memory to a virtual machine, adding a virtual cpu to a virtual machine (at
most one at this time), transferring control to the virtual cpu, and querying
about guest pages changed by the virtual machine.
