[PATCH v1 07/12] kvm: Add arch-generic interface for hw-accelerated dirty-bitmap cleaning

[Leonardo Bras <leo.bras@arm.com>]

Introduce kvm_arch_dirty_log_clear() that allow implementation of
arch-specific hardware-accelerated dirty-log routines.

A call to that is added on both kvm_get_dirty_log_protect() and
kvm_clear_dirty_log_protect() and will fall back to software version if
not implemented, or any error was detected in the arch-specific routine.

For an arch to implement this function, it's required to provide an
asm/kvm_dirty_bit.h and have CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_HW_DIRTY_BIT=y on building.

If the arch does not implement it, and thus lack above config, the
introduced snippet is expected to be compiled-out and have zero impact at
runtime.
