Subject: [PATCH V4 0/3] KVM/Hyper-V: Add Hyper-V direct tlb flush support

From: Tianyu Lan <Tianyu.Lan@...rosoft.com>

This patchset is to add Hyper-V direct tlb support in KVM. Hyper-V
in L0 can delegate L1 hypervisor to handle tlb flush request from
L2 guest when direct tlb flush is enabled in L1.

Patch 2 introduces new cap KVM_CAP_HYPERV_DIRECT_TLBFLUSH to enable
feature from user space. User space should enable this feature only
when Hyper-V hypervisor capability is exposed to guest and KVM profile
is hided. There is a parameter conflict between KVM and Hyper-V hypercall.
We hope L2 guest doesn't use KVM hypercall when the feature is
enabled. Detail please see comment of new API "KVM_CAP_HYPERV_DIRECT_TLBFLUSH"

Change since v3:
       - Update changelog in each patches. 

Change since v2:
       - Move hv assist page(hv_pa_pg) from struct kvm  to struct kvm_hv.

Change since v1:
       - Fix offset issue in the patch 1.
       - Update description of KVM KVM_CAP_HYPERV_DIRECT_TLBFLUSH.
