CHANGES FROM V1
===============
* Rename the new mode from ga to vapic to be consistent with
the current terminology used in KVM for guest virtual APIC
(1/10 and 2/10).
* Rename the member enum amd_iommu_intr_mode_type, and provide
helper functions (1/10 and 2/10).
* Re-factor the patch series to separate out the enabling of
vAPIC interrupt remapping mode (patch 7/10).
* Re-implement amd_iommu_update_ga() (per Radim's comment) (10/10)

OVERVIEW
========
This patch set is the second part of the two-part patch series to introduce
the new AMD Advance Virtual Interrupt Controller (AVIC) support.
In addition to the SVM AVIC, AMD IOMMU also extends the AVIC capability
to allow I/O interrupts injection directly into the virtualized guest
local APIC without the need for hypervisor intervention.
This patch series introduces a new hardware interrupt remapping (IR) mode
in AMD IOMMU driver, the Guest Virtual APIC (GA) mode. This is in contrast
to the existing "legacy" mode. The IR mode can be specified with a new
kernel parameter:
amd_iommu_guest_ir=[vapic (default) | legacy]
When enabling GA mode, the AMD IOMMU driver will configure device interrupt
remapping in GA mode when possible (i.e. SVM AVIC must be enabled, and if
the interrupt types are supported). Otherewise, the driver will fallback
to using the legacy IR mode.
This patch series also introduces new interfaces between SVM and IOMMU
to allow:
* SVM driver to communicate to IOMMU with updated vcpu scheduling
information.
* IOMMU driver to notify SVM driver to schedule vcpu on to physical core
handle IOMMU GALog entry.
