  To: Alexander Graf; +Cc: kvm, kvm-ppc

This is a repost of 10 patches out of a series of 12 that I posted
more than three weeks ago that have had no comments but have not yet
been applied.  They have been rediffed against Alex Graf's current
kvm-ppc-next branch.

This series contains various fixes collected during the process of
getting reboot of Book3S HV guests to work correctly, plus some needed
for Ben H's forthcoming series to implement in-kernel XICS (interrupt
controller) emulation.  As part of getting reboot to work, we have
relaxed the previous policy where, on POWER7, a virtual core would
only run when all of the vcpus in it were ready to run (or were idle).
Now a virtual core will run as soon as any one of its vcpus are ready.
This avoids the problem where the guest wouldn't run after reboot
because userspace (qemu) had stopped all except cpu 0.

Please apply.

Paul.
