The current KVM implementation of PSCI returns INVALID_PARAMETERS if the
waitqueue for the corresponding CPU is not active. This does not seem
correct, since KVM should not care what the specific thread is doing,
for example, user space may not have called KVM_RUN on this VCPU yet or
the thread may be busy looping to user space because it received a
signal; this is really up to the user space implementation. Instead we
should check specifically that the CPU is marked as being turned off,
regardless of the VCPU thread state, and if it is, we shall
simply clear the pause flag on the CPU and wake up the thread if it
happens to be blocked for us.
Further, the implementation seems to be racy when executing multiple
VCPU threads. There really isn't a reasonable user space programming
scheme to ensure all secondary CPUs have reached kvm_vcpu_first_run_init
before turning on the boot CPU.
Therefore, set the pause flag on the vcpu at VCPU init time (which can
reasonably be expected to be completed for all CPUs by user space before
running any VCPUs) and clear both this flag and the feature (in case the
feature can somehow get set again in the future) and ping the waitqueue
on turning on a VCPU using PSCI.

When booting a vcpu using PSCI, make sure we start it with the
endianness of the caller. Otherwise, secondaries can be pretty
unhappy to execute a BE kernel in LE mode...
This conforms to PSCI spec Rev B, 5.13.3.

The KVM PSCI code blindly assumes that vcpu_id and MPIDR are
the same thing. This is true when vcpus are organized as a flat
topology, but is wrong when trying to emulate any other topology
(such as A15 clusters).
Change the KVM PSCI CPU_ON code to look at the MPIDR instead
of the vcpu_id to pick a target CPU.

Currently, kvmtool unconditionally declares that HVC should be used
to call PSCI, so the function numbers in the DT tell the guest
nothing about the function ID namespace or calling convention for
SMC.
We already assume that the guest will examine and honour the DT,
since there is no way it could possibly guess the KVM-specific PSCI
function IDs otherwise. So let's not encourage guests to violate
what's specified in the DT by using SMC to make the call.

Implement the PSCI specification (ARM DEN 0022A) to control
virtual CPUs being "powered" on or off.
PSCI/KVM is detected using the KVM_CAP_ARM_PSCI capability.
A virtual CPU can now be initialized in a "powered off" state,
using the KVM_ARM_VCPU_POWER_OFF feature flag.
The guest can use either SMC or HVC to execute a PSCI function.
