This implements an NMI interface for s390 and s390-ccw machines.
This removes #ifdef s390 branch in qmp_inject_nmi so new s390's
nmi_monitor_handler() callback is going to be used for NMI.
Since nmi_monitor_handler()-calling code is platform independent,
CPUState::cpu_index is used instead of S390CPU::env.cpu_num.
There should not be any change in behaviour as both @cpu_index and
@cpu_num are global CPU numbers.
Note that s390_cpu_restart() already takes care of the specified cpu,
so we don't need to schedule via async_run_on_cpu().
Since the only error s390_cpu_restart() can return is ENOSYS, convert
it to QERR_UNSUPPORTED.

This introduces an NMI (Non Maskable Interrupt) interface with
a single nmi_monitor_handler() method. A machine or a device can
implement it. This searches for an QOM object with this interface
and if it is implemented, calls it. The callback implements an action
required to cause debug crash dump on in-kernel debugger invocation.
The callback returns Error**.
This adds a nmi_monitor_handle() helper which walks through
all objects to find the interface. The interface method is called
for all found instances.
This adds support for it in qmp_inject_nmi(). Since no architecture
supports it at the moment, there is no change in behaviour.
This changes inject-nmi command description for HMP and QMP.

The goal is to sleep qemu whenever the guest clock
is in advance compared to the host clock (we use
the monotonic clocks). The amount of time to sleep
is calculated in the execution loop in cpu_exec.
At first, we tried to approximate at each for loop the real time elapsed
while searching for a TB (generating or retrieving from cache) and
executing it. We would then approximate the virtual time corresponding
to the number of virtual instructions executed. The difference between
these 2 values would allow us to know if the guest is in advance or delayed.
However, the function used for measuring the real time
(qemu_clock_get_ns(QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME)) proved to be very expensive.
We had an added overhead of 13% of the total run time.
Therefore, we modified the algorithm and only take into account the
difference between the 2 clocks at the begining of the cpu_exec function.
During the for loop we try to reduce the advance of the guest only by
computing the virtual time elapsed and sleeping if necessary. The overhead
is thus reduced to 3%. Even though this method still has a noticeable
overhead, it no longer is a bottleneck in trying to achieve a better
guest frequency for which the guest clock is faster than the host one.
As for the the alignement of the 2 clocks, with the first algorithm
the guest clock was oscillating between -1 and 1ms compared to the host clock.
Using the second algorithm we notice that the guest is 5ms behind the host, which
is still acceptable for our use case.
The tests where conducted using fio and stress. The host machine in an i5 CPU at
3.10GHz running Debian Jessie (kernel 3.12). The guest machine is an arm versatile-pb
built with buildroot.
Currently, on our test machine, the lowest icount we can achieve that is suitable for
aligning the 2 clocks is 6. However, we observe that the IO tests (using fio) are
slower than the cpu tests (using stress).

When using the icount option on ARM, the virtual
clock starts counting at realtime clock but it
should start at 0.
The reason why the virtual clock starts at realtime clock
is because the first time we call qemu_clock_warp (which
calls icount_warp_rt) in tcg_exec_all, qemu_icount_bias
(which is part of the virtual time computation mechanism)
will increment by realtime - vm_clock_warp_start, with
vm_clock_warp_start being 0 (see icount_warp_rt in cpus.c).
By changing the value of vm_clock_warp_start from 0 to -1,
the first time we call qemu_clock_warp which calls
icount_warp_rt, we will return immediatly because
icount_warp_rt first checks if vm_clock_warp_start is -1
and if it's the case it returns. Therefore, qemu_icount_bias
will first be incremented by the value of a virtual timer
deadline when the virtual cpu goes from active to inactive.
The virtual time will start at 0 and increment based
on the instruction counter when the vcpu is active or
the qemu_icount_bias value when inactive.

There patch protects vmstop_requested with a lock and introduces

Together with the new call to qemu_vmstop_requested in vm_start,
qemu_system_vmstop_request_prepare avoids a race where the VM could remain
stopped even though the iostatus of a block device has already been set
(for example).
qemu_system_vmstop_request_prepare however also lets the caller thread
delay observation of the state change until it has itself communicated
that change to the user. This delay avoids any possibility of a wrong
reordering of the BLOCK_IO_ERROR event and the subsequent STOP event.

Stop/cont commands are broken with -icount due to a deadlock. The
real problem is that the computation of timers_state.cpu_ticks_offset
makes no sense with -icount enabled: we set it to an icount clock value
in cpu_disable_ticks, and subtract a TSC (or similar, whatever
cpu_get_real_ticks happens to return) value in cpu_enable_ticks.
The fix is simple. timers_state.cpu_ticks_offset is only used
together with cpu_get_real_ticks, so we can use cpu_get_real_ticks
in cpu_disable_ticks. There is no need to update cpu_ticks_prev
at the time cpu_disable_ticks is called; instead, we can do it
the next time cpu_get_ticks is called.
The change to cpu_disable_ticks is the important part of the patch.
The rest modifies the code to always check timers_state.cpu_ticks_prev,
even when the ticks are not advancing (i.e. the VM is stopped). It also
makes a similar change to cpu_get_clock_locked, so that the code remains
similar for cpu_get_ticks and cpu_get_clock_locked.

Computing the deadline of all vm_clocks is somewhat expensive and calls
out to qemu-timer.c; two reasons not to do it in the seqlock's write-side
critical section. This however opens the door for races in setting and
reading vm_clock_warp_start.
To plug them, we need to cover the case where a new deadline slips in
between the call to qemu_clock_deadline_ns_all and the actual modification
of the icount_warp_timer. Restrict changes to vm_clock_warp_start and
the icount_warp_timer's expiration time, to only move them back (which
would simply cause an early wakeup).
If a vm_clock timer is cancelled while CPUs are idle, this might cause the
icount_warp_timer to fire unnecessarily. This is not a problem, after it
fires the timer becomes inactive and the next call to timer_mod_anticipate
will be precise.
In addition to this, we must deactivate the icount_warp_timer _before_
checking whether CPUs are idle. This way, if the "last" CPU becomes idle
during the call to timer_del we will still set up the icount_warp_timer.

There is the 'nmi' command that is used to trigger a guest dump via kdump feature on x86.
s390 uses RESTART interrupt to trigger kdump.
So, this patch provides a mean to use 'nmi' command on s390 to raise RESTART interrupt.
The CPU to receive the RESTART interrupt is the "default" one.
There is an infrastructure to select the "default" CPU using 'cpu' command.
The 'info cpus' command can be used to see which one is the "default".
In order to wire up the RESTART to 'nmi' command we had to:
1. implement the kvm_s390_cpu_restart function by exporting the existing code
2. implement s390_cpu_restart function as kvm-aware wrapper
3. modify the qmp_inject_nmi function to enable (for s390) the scan for
"default" CPU and call s390_cpu_restart for it;
3. fix some messages.
