KVM: s390: Allow userspace to limit guest memory size 



With commit c6c956b8 ("KVM: s390/mm: support gmap page tables with less
than 5 levels") we are able to define a limit for the guest memory size.

As we round up the guest size in respect to the levels of page tables
we get to guest limits of: 2048 MB, 4096 GB, 8192 TB and 16384 PB.
We currently limit the guest size to 16 TB, which means we end up
creating a page table structure supporting guest sizes up to 8192 TB.

This patch introduces an interface that allows userspace to tune
this limit. This may bring performance improvements for small guests.

1.3. ATTRIBUTE KVM_S390_VM_MEM_LIMIT_SIZE

Parameters: in attr->addr the address for the new limit of guest memory

Returns: -EFAULT if the given address is not accessible

         -EINVAL if the virtual machine is of type UCONTROL

         -E2BIG if the given guest memory is to big for that machine

         -EBUSY if a vcpu is already defined

         -ENOMEM if not enough memory is available for a new shadow guest mapping

          0 otherwise



Allows userspace to query the actual limit and set a new limit for

the maximum guest memory size. The limit will be rounded up to

2048 MB, 4096 GB, 8192 TB respectively, as this limit is governed by

the number of page table levels.
