KVM/Hyper-V: Add new KVM capability KVM_CAP_HYPERV_DIRECT_TLBFLUSH 



Hyper-V direct tlb flush function should be enabled for
guest that only uses Hyper-V hypercall. User space
hypervisor(e.g, Qemu) can disable KVM identification in
CPUID and just exposes Hyper-V identification to make
sure the precondition. Add new KVM capability KVM_CAP_
HYPERV_DIRECT_TLBFLUSH for user space to enable Hyper-V
direct tlb function and this function is default to be
disabled in KVM.

8.21 KVM_CAP_HYPERV_DIRECT_TLBFLUSH



Architecture: x86



This capability indicates that KVM running on top of Hyper-V hypervisor

enables Direct TLB flush for its guests meaning that TLB flush

hypercalls are handled by Level 0 hypervisor (Hyper-V) bypassing KVM.

Due to the different ABI for hypercall parameters between Hyper-V and

KVM, enabling this capability effectively disables all hypercall

handling by KVM (as some KVM hypercall may be mistakenly treated as TLB

flush hypercalls by Hyper-V) so userspace should disable KVM identification

in CPUID and only exposes Hyper-V identification. In this case, guest

thinks it's running on Hyper-V and only use Hyper-V hypercalls.
