One frequently touted benefit of virtualization is the ability to
consolidate machines, increasing resource utilization.  It may even be
desirable to overcommit, at the risk of one or more VCPUs having to wait.
Hypervisors which have interfaces for guests to retrieve the amount of
time each VCPU had to wait give observers within the guests ways to
account for less progress than would otherwise be expected. The SBI STA
extension[1] provides a standard interface for guest VCPUs to retrieve
the amount of time "stolen".

This series has three parts:
 1) Patches 01-03 - Add paravirt support to RISC-V and implement
                    steal-time accounting support using the SBI STA
                    extension.
 2) Patches 04-09 - Implement SBI STA in KVM so KVM guests, such as
                    Linux guests which enable the paravirt steal-time
                    support, can be enlightened about stolen time.
 3) Patches 10-13 - Add RISC-V support to the KVM selftests steal_time
                    test and the SBI extension regs in the get-reg-list
                    test.

These patches are based on kvm-riscv/riscv_kvm_queue

[1] https://github.com/riscv-non-isa/riscv-sbi-doc/blob/master/src/ext-steal-time.adoc

This patches are also available here
https://github.com/jones-drew/linux/commits/kvm/steal-time-v4

Changes since v3:
 - Use work "Computing" instead of "using" in pr_info [Atish]
 - Rename KVM_REG_RISCV_SBI to KVM_REG_RISCV_SBI_STATE [Atish, Anup]
 - Picked up r-b's from Atish and Anup

Changes since v2:
 - Always check sequence in case the SBI impl isn't writing steal
   atomically [Anup]
 - Create a reset function for sta and also reset last_steal [Anup]
 - Picked up Anup's r-b's

Changes since v1:
 - sbi_sta_steal_time_set_shmem() now maps SBI errors to linux errors [Conor]
 - Squashed v1 patch 4 into v1 patch 3 [Conor]
 - Moved kvm_riscv_vcpu_set/get_reg_sbi() to arch/riscv/kvm/vcpu_sbi.c
   which seems like a more appropriate file for them
 - Rebased on kvm-riscv/riscv_kvm_queue which has all the dependencies

Changes since RFC:
 - Rebased on v6.7-rc3 (plus the patches mentioned above)
 - Added defines for the -1's [Conor]
 - Added a comment to the steal read sequence [Conor]
 - Only do the steal read sequence for 32-bit and added READ_ONCE's
 - Check for SBI v2.0 implementation
 - Rename set_steal_time_shmem to steal_time_set_shmem
 - Add get-reg-list support and test with get-reg-list kselftest
 - A few other minor improvements
 - Picked up one r-b from Conor

Thanks,
drew
