Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/4] kvm: Add host side support for free memory hints

From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@...ux.intel.com>

Add the host side of the KVM memory hinting support. With this we expose a
feature bit indicating that the host will pass the messages along to the
new madvise function.

This functionality is mutually exclusive with device assignment. If a
device is assigned we will disable the functionality as it could lead to a
potential memory corruption if a device writes to a page after KVM has
flagged it as not being used.

The logic as it is currently defined limits the hint to only supporting a
hugepage or larger notifications. This is meant to help prevent us from
potentially breaking up huge pages by hinting that only a portion of the
page is not needed.

+7. KVM_HC_UNUSED_PAGE_HINT
+------------------------
+Architecture: x86
+Status: active
+Purpose: Send unused page hint to host
+
+a0: physical address of region unused, page aligned
+a1: size of unused region, page aligned
+
+The hypercall lets a guest send notifications to the host that it will no
+longer be using a given page in memory. Multiple pages can be hinted at by
+using the size field to hint that a higher order page is available by
+specifying the higher order page size.
