Subject: [PATCH v5 1/3] KVM: x86: Deflect unknown MSR accesses to user space
MSRs are weird. Some of them are normal control registers, such as EFER.
Some however are registers that really are model specific, not very
interesting to virtualization workloads, and not performance critical.
Others again are really just windows into package configuration.
Out of these MSRs, only the first category is necessary to implement in
kernel space. Rarely accessed MSRs, MSRs that should be fine tunes against
certain CPU models and MSRs that contain information on the package level
are much better suited for user space to process. However, over time we have
accumulated a lot of MSRs that are not the first category, but still handled
by in-kernel KVM code.
This patch adds a generic interface to handle WRMSR and RDMSR from user
space. With this, any future MSR that is part of the latter categories can
be handled in user space.
Furthermore, it allows us to replace the existing "ignore_msrs" logic with
something that applies per-VM rather than on the full system. That way you
can run productive VMs in parallel to experimental ones where you don't care
about proper MSR handling.

v1 -> v2:
- s/ETRAP_TO_USER_SPACE/ENOENT/g
- deflect all #GP injection events to user space, not just unknown MSRs.
That was we can also deflect allowlist errors later
- fix emulator case
v2 -> v3:
- return r if r == X86EMUL_IO_NEEDED
- s/KVM_EXIT_RDMSR/KVM_EXIT_X86_RDMSR/g
- s/KVM_EXIT_WRMSR/KVM_EXIT_X86_WRMSR/g
- Use complete_userspace_io logic instead of reply field
- Simplify trapping code
v3 -> v4:
- Mention exit reasons in re-inter mandatory section of API documentation
- Clear padding bytes
- Generalize get/set deflect functions
- Remove redundant pending_user_msr field
