Here are a range of MIPS KVM T&E fixes, preferably for v3.16 but I know
it's probably a bit late now. Changes are pretty minimal though since
v1 so please consider. They can also be found on my kvm_mips_queue
branch (and the kvm_mips_timer_v2 tag) here:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jhogan/kvm-mips.git

They originally served to allow it to work better on Ingenic XBurst
cores which have some peculiarities which break non-portable assumptions
in the MIPS KVM implementation (patches 1-4, 13).

Fixing guest CP0_Count emulation to work without a running host
CP0_Count (patch 13) however required a rewrite of the timer emulation
code to use the kernel monotonic time instead, which needed doing anyway
since basing it directly off the host CP0_Count was broken. Various bugs
were fixed in the process (patches 10-12) and improvements made thanks to
valuable feedback from Paolo Bonzini for the last QEMU MIPS/KVM patchset
(patches 5-7, 15-16).

Finally there are some misc cleanups which I did along the way (patches
17-23).

Only the first patch (fixes MIPS KVM with 4K pages) is marked for
stable. For KVM to work on XBurst it needs the timer rework which is a
fairly complex change, so there's little point marking any of the XBurst
specific changes for stable.

All feedback welcome!

Patches 1-4:
	Fix KVM/MIPS with 4K pages, missing RDHWR SYNCI (XBurst),
	unmoving CP0_Random (XBurst).
Patches 5-9:
	Add EPC, Count, Compare, UserLocal, HWREna guest CP0 registers
	to KVM register ioctl interface.
Patches 10-12:
	Fix a few potential races relating to timers.
Patches 13-14:
	Rewrite guest timer emulation to use ktime_get().
Patches 15-16:
	Add KVM virtual registers for controlling guest timer, including
	master timer disable, and timer frequency.
Patches 17-23:
	Cleanups.

Changes in v2 (tag:kvm_mips_timer_v2):
 Patchset:
 - Drop patch 4 "MIPS: KVM: Fix CP0_EBASE KVM register id" (David
   Daney).
 - Drop patch 14 "MIPS: KVM: Add nanosecond count bias KVM register".
   The COUNT_CTL and COUNT_RESUME API is clean and sufficient.
 - Add missing access to UserLocal and HWREna guest CP0 registers
   (patches 15 and 16).
 - Add export of local_flush_icache_range (patch 2).
 Patch 12 MIPS: KVM: Migrate hrtimer to follow VCPU
 - Move kvm_mips_migrate_count() into kvm_tlb.c to fix a link error when
   KVM is built as a module, since kvm_tlb.c is built statically and
   cannot reference symbols in kvm_mips_emul.c.
 Patch 15 MIPS: KVM: Add master disable count interface
 - Make KVM_REG_MIPS_COUNT_RESUME writable too so that userland can
   control timer using master DC and without bias register. New values
   are rejected if they refer to a monotonic time in the future.
 - Expand on description of KVM_REG_MIPS_COUNT_RESUME about the effects
   of the register and that it can be written.
