KVM: Reset PIT irq injection logic when the PIT IRQ is unmasked

While the PIT is masked the guest cannot ack the irq, so the reinject logic
will never allow the interrupt to be injected.

KVM: Reset PIT irq injection logic when the PIT IRQ is unmasked

While the PIT is masked the guest cannot ack the irq, so the reinject logic
will never allow the interrupt to be injected.

Fix by resetting the reinjection counters on unmask.

Unbreaks Xen.

KVM: PIT: provide an option to disable interrupt reinjection

Certain clocks (such as TSC) in older 2.6 guests overaccount for lost
ticks, causing severe time drift. Interrupt reinjection magnifies the
problem.

Provide an option to disable it.

[avi: allow room for expansion in case we want to disable reinjection
of other timers]

KVM: Fix guest shared interrupt with in-kernel irqchip

Every call of kvm_set_irq() should offer an irq_source_id, which is
allocated by kvm_request_irq_source_id(). Based on irq_source_id, we
identify the irq source and implement logical OR for shared level
interrupts.

The allocated irq_source_id can be freed by kvm_free_irq_source_id().

Currently, we support at most sizeof(unsigned long) different irq sources.

[Amit: - rebase to kvm.git HEAD
- move definition of KVM_USERSPACE_IRQ_SOURCE_ID to common file
- move kvm_request_irq_source_id to the update_irq ioctl]

[Xiantao: - Add kvm/ia64 stuff and make it work for kvm/ia64 guests]

KVM: PIT: fix injection logic and count

The PIT injection logic is problematic under the following cases:

1) If there is a higher priority vector to be delivered by the time
kvm_pit_timer_intr_post is invoked ps->inject_pending won't be set.
This opens the possibility for missing many PIT event injections (say if
guest executes hlt at this point).

2) ps->inject_pending is racy with more than two vcpus. Since there's no locking
around read/dec of pt->pending, two vcpu's can inject two interrupts for a single
pt->pending count.

Fix 1 by using an irq ack notifier: only reinject when the previous irq
has been acked. Fix 2 with appropriate locking around manipulation of
pending count and irq_ack by the injection / ack paths.
