Subject: [PATCH v11] kvm: notify host when the guest is panicked

We can know the guest is panicked when the guest runs on xen.
But we do not have such feature on kvm.

Another purpose of this feature is: management app(for example:
libvirt) can do auto dump when the guest is panicked. If management
app does not do auto dump, the guest's user can do dump by hand if
he sees the guest is panicked.

We have three solutions to implement this feature:
1. use vmcall
2. use I/O port
3. use virtio-serial.

We have decided to avoid touching hypervisor. The reason why I choose
choose the I/O port is:
1. it is easier to implememt
2. it does not depend any virtual device
3. it can work when starting the kernel

changes from v10:
 
  - add a kernel parameter to disable pv-event
  - detailed documentation to describe pv event interface
  - make kvm_pv_event_init() local

+The KVM Paravirtual Event Interface
+=================================
+
+The KVM Paravirtual Event Interface defines a simple interface,
+by which guest OS can inform hypervisor that something happened.
+
+To inform hypervisor of events, guest writes a 32-bit integer to
+the Interface. Each bit of the integer represents an event, if a
+bit is set, the corresponding event happens.
+
+To query events supported by hypervisor, guest reads from the
+Interface. If a bit is set, the corresponding event is supported.
+
+The Interface supports up to 32 events. Currently there is 1 event
+defined, as follow:
+
+KVM_PV_FEATURE_PANICKED		0
+
+
+Querying whether the event can be ejected
+======================
+kvm_pv_has_feature()
+Arguments:
+	feature: The bit value of this paravirtual event to query
+
+Return Value:
+	 0: The guest kernel can't eject this paravirtual event.
+	 1: The guest kernel can eject this paravirtual event.
+
+
+Ejecting paravirtual event
+======================
+kvm_pv_eject_event()
+Arguments:
+	event: The event to be ejected.
+
+Return Value:
+	None
