[PATCH v3 0/7] Enlightened VMCS support for KVM on Hyper-V

[Vitaly Kuznetsov]

Changes since v2:
- Move hyperv.h out of uapi [Radim KrÄmÃÅ], PATCHes 1 and 2 added.
- define KVM_EVMCS_VERSION, HV_X64_ENLIGHTENED_VMCS_VERSION [Radim KrÄmÃÅ]
- WARN_ONCE in get_evmcs_offset[,_cf] [Radim KrÄmÃÅ]
- add evmcs_sanitize_exec_ctrls() and use it in hardware_setup() and
  dump_vmcs() [Radim KrÄmÃÅ]

When running nested KVM on Hyper-V it's possible to use so called
'Enlightened VMCS' and do normal memory reads/writes instead of
doing VMWRITE/VMREAD instructions. In addition, clean field mask
provides a huge room for optimization on L0's side.

Tight CPUID loop test shows significant speedup (E5-2667 v4 @ 3.20GHz):
  Before: 18890 cycles
  After: 8304 cycles
