Bugfixes for emulated Xen support

Selected bugfixes for mainline and stable, especially to the per-vCPU
local APIC vector delivery mode for event channel notifications, which
was broken in a number of ways.

The xen-block driver has been defaulting to the wrong protocol for x86
guest, and this fixes that — which is technically an incompatible change
but I'm fairly sure nobody relies on the broken behaviour (and in
production I *have* seen guests which rely on the correct behaviour,
which now matches the blkback driver in the Linux kernel).

A handful of other simple fixes for issues which came to light as new
features (qv) were being developed.

hw/xen: select kernel mode for per-vCPU event channel upcall vector

A guest which has configured the per-vCPU upcall vector may set the
HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_IRQ param to fairly much anything other than zero.

For example, Linux v6.0+ after commit b1c3497e604 ("x86/xen: Add support
for HVMOP_set_evtchn_upcall_vector") will just do this after setting the
vector:

/* Trick toolstack to think we are enlightened. */
if (!cpu)
rc = xen_set_callback_via(1);

That's explicitly setting the delivery to GSI#1, but it's supposed to be
overridden by the per-vCPU vector setting. This mostly works in Qemu
*except* for the logic to enable the in-kernel handling of event channels,
which falsely determines that the kernel cannot accelerate GSI delivery
in this case.

Add a kvm_xen_has_vcpu_callback_vector() to report whether vCPU#0 has
the vector set, and use that in xen_evtchn_set_callback_param() to
enable the kernel acceleration features even when the param *appears*
to be set to target a GSI.

Preserve the Xen behaviour that when HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_IRQ is set to
*zero* the event channel delivery is disabled completely. (Which is
what that bizarre guest behaviour is working round in the first place.)

Merge branch 'xenfv-kvm-15' of git://git.infradead.org/users/dwmw2/qemu into HEAD

This adds support for emulating Xen under Linux/KVM, based on kernel
patches which have been present since Linux v5.

Merge branch 'xenfv-kvm-15' of git://git.infradead.org/users/dwmw2/qemu into HEAD

This adds support for emulating Xen under Linux/KVM, based on kernel
patches which have been present since Linux v5.12. As with the kernel
support, it's derived from work started by João Martins of Oracle in
2018.

This series just adds the basic platform support — CPUID, hypercalls,
event channels, a stub of XenStore.

A full single-tenant internal implementation of XenStore, and patches
to make QEMU's Xen PV drivers work with this Xen emulation, are waiting
in the wings to be submitted in a follow-on patch series.

As noted in the documentation, it's enabled by setting the xen-version
property on the KVM accelerator, e.g.:

qemu-system-x86_64 -serial mon:stdio -M q35 -display none -m 1G -smp 2 \
-accel kvm,xen-version=0x4000e,kernel-irqchip=split \
-kernel vmlinuz-6.0.7-301.fc37.x86_64 \
-append "console=ttyS0 root=/dev/sda1" \
-drive file=/var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora28.qcow2,if=none,id=disk \
-device ahci,id=ahci -device ide-hd,drive=disk,bus=ahci.0

Even before this was merged, we've already been using it to find and fix
bugs in the Linux kernel Xen guest support:

hw/xen: Support HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_TYPE_GSI callback

The GSI callback (and later PCI_INTX) is a level triggered interrupt. It
is asserted when an event channel is delivered to vCPU0, and is supposed
to be cleared when the vcpu_info->evtchn_upcall_pending field for vCPU0
is cleared again.

Thankfully, Xen does *not* assert the GSI if the guest sets its own
evtchn_upcall_pending field; we only need to assert the GSI when we
have delivered an event for ourselves. So that's the easy part, kind of.

There's a slight complexity in that we need to hold the BQL before we
can call qemu_set_irq(), and we definitely can't do that while holding
our own port_lock (because we'll need to take that from the qemu-side
functions that the PV backend drivers will call). So if we end up
wanting to set the IRQ in a context where we *don't* already hold the
BQL, defer to a BH.

However, we *do* need to poll for the evtchn_upcall_pending flag being
cleared. In an ideal world we would poll that when the EOI happens on
the PIC/IOAPIC. That's how it works in the kernel with the VFIO eventfd
pairs — one is used to trigger the interrupt, and the other works in the
other direction to 'resample' on EOI, and trigger the first eventfd
again if the line is still active.

However, QEMU doesn't seem to do that. Even VFIO level interrupts seem
to be supported by temporarily unmapping the device's BARs from the
guest when an interrupt happens, then trapping *all* MMIO to the device
and sending the 'resample' event on *every* MMIO access until the IRQ
is cleared! Maybe in future we'll plumb the 'resample' concept through
QEMU's irq framework but for now we'll do what Xen itself does: just
check the flag on every vmexit if the upcall GSI is known to be
asserted.

Add the array of virq ports to each vCPU so that we can deliver timers,

The kernel needs to know about VIRQ_TIMER in order to accelerate timers,
so tell it via KVM_XEN_VCPU_ATTR_TYPE_TIMER. Also save/restore the value
of the singleshot timer across migration, as the kernel will handle the
hypercalls automatically now.

hw/xen: Add xen_overlay device for emulating shared xenheap pages

For the shared info page and for grant tables, Xen shares its own pages
from the "Xen heap" to the guest. The guest requests that a given page
from a certain address space (XENMAPSPACE_shared_info, etc.) be mapped
to a given GPA using the XENMEM_add_to_physmap hypercall.

To support that in qemu when *emulating* Xen, create a memory region
(migratable) and allow it to be mapped as an overlay when requested.

Xen theoretically allows the same page to be mapped multiple times
into the guest, but that's hard to track and reinstate over migration,
so we automatically *unmap* any previous mapping when creating a new
one. This approach has been used in production with.... a non-trivial
number of guests expecting true Xen, without any problems yet being
noticed.

This adds just the shared info page for now. The grant tables will be
a larger region, and will need to be overlaid one page at a time. I
think that means I need to create separate aliases for each page of
the overall grant_frames region, so that they can be mapped individually.
