Currently the code for handling hypervisor instruction page faults passes 0 for the flags indicating the type of fault, which is OK in the usual case that the page is not mapped in the partition-scoped page tables. However, there are other causes for hypervisor instruction page faults, such as not being to update a reference (R) or change (C) bit. The cause is indicated in bits in HSRR1, including a bit which indicates that the fault is due to not being able to write to a page (for example to update an R or C bit). Not handling these other kinds of faults correctly can lead to a loop of continual faults without forward progress in the guest. In order to handle these faults better, this patch constructs a "DSISR-like" value from the bits which DSISR and SRR1 (for a HISI) have in common, and passes it to kvmppc_book3s_hv_page_fault() so that it knows what caused the fault.
