9cb1ccecb6 s390: remove all usages of PSW_ADDR_INSN
Yet another leftover from the 31 bit era. The usual operation
"y = x & PSW_ADDR_INSN" with the PSW_ADDR_INSN mask is a nop for
CONFIG_64BIT.

Therefore remove all usages and hope the code is a bit less confusing.

0df30abcd6 KVM: s390: filter space-switch events when PER is enforced
When guest debugging is active, space-switch events might be enforced
by PER. While the PER events are correctly filtered out,
space-switch-events could be forwarded to the guest, although from a
guest point of view, they should not have been reported.

Therefore we have to filter out space-switch events being concurrently
reported with a PER event, if the PER event got filtered out. To do so,
we theoretically have to know which instruction was responsible for the
event. As the applicable instructions modify the PSW address, the
address space set in the PSW and even the address space in cr1, we
can't figure out the instruction that way.

For this reason, we have to rely on the information about the old and
new address space, in order to guess the responsible instruction type
and do appropriate checks for space-switch events.

1f289a8429 KVM: s390: Use the read_guest_abs() in guest debug functions
The guest debug functions work on absolute addresses and should use the
read_guest_abs() function rather than general read_guest() that
works with logical addresses.

fcc9aec3de KVM: s390: return -EFAULT if copy_from_user() fails
When copy_from_user() fails, this code returns the number of bytes
remaining instead of a negative error code.  The positive number is
returned to the user but otherwise it is harmless.

f71d0dc508 KVM: s390: no timer interrupts when single-stepping a guest
When a guest is single-stepped, we want to disable timer interrupts. Otherwise,
the guest will continuously execute the external interrupt handler and make
debugging of code where timer interrupts are enabled almost impossible.

The delivery of timer interrupts can be enforced in such sections by setting a
breakpoint and continuing execution.

In order to disable timer interrupts, they are disabled in the control register
of the guest just before SIE entry and are suppressed in the interrupt
check/delivery methods.

27291e2165 KVM: s390: hardware support for guest debugging
This patch adds support to debug the guest using the PER facility on s390.
Single-stepping, hardware breakpoints and hardware watchpoints are supported. In
order to use the PER facility of the guest without it noticing it, the control
registers of the guest have to be patched and access to them has to be
intercepted(stctl, stctg, lctl, lctlg).

All PER program interrupts have to be intercepted and only the relevant PER
interrupts for the guest have to be given back. Special care has to be taken
about repeated exits on the same hardware breakpoint. The intervention of the
host in the guests PER configuration is not fully transparent. PER instruction
nullification can not be used by the guest and too many storage alteration
events may be reported to the guest (if it is activated for special address
ranges only) when the host concurrently debugging it.
