KVM_CAP_MEMORY_FAULT_INFO allows kvm_run to return useful information
besides a return value of -1 and errno of EFAULT when a vCPU fails an
access to guest memory.
Add documentation, updates to the KVM headers, and a helper function
(kvm_populate_efault_info) for implementing the capability.
kvm_populate_efault_info(), function name.
Besides simply filling the run struct, kvm_populate_efault_info takes
Ditto
two safety measures
a. It tries to prevent concurrent fills on a single vCPU run struct
by checking that the run struct being modified corresponds to the
currently loaded vCPU.
b. It tries to avoid filling an already-populated run struct by
checking whether the exit reason has been modified since entry
into KVM_RUN.
Finally, mark KVM_CAP_MEMORY_FAULT_INFO as available on arm64 and x86,
even though EFAULT annotation are currently totally absent. Picking a
point to declare the implementation "done" is difficult because
1. Annotations will be performed incrementally in subsequent commits
across both core and arch-specific KVM.
2. The initial series will very likely miss some cases which need
annotation. Although these omissions are to be fixed in the future,
userspace thus still needs to expect and be able to handle
unannotated EFAULTs.
Given these qualifications, just marking it available here seems the
least arbitrary thing to do.

+7.34 KVM_CAP_MEMORY_FAULT_INFO
+------------------------------
+
+:Architectures: x86, arm64
+:Parameters: args[0] - KVM_MEMORY_FAULT_INFO_ENABLE|DISABLE to enable/disable
+ the capability.
+:Returns: 0 on success, or -EINVAL if unsupported or invalid args[0].
+
+When enabled, EFAULTs "returned" by KVM_RUN in response to failed vCPU guest
+memory accesses may be annotated with additional information. When KVM_RUN
+returns an error with errno=EFAULT, userspace may check the exit reason: if it
+is KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT, userspace is then permitted to read the 'memory_fault'
+member of the run struct.
+
+The 'gpa' and 'len' (in bytes) fields describe the range of guest
+physical memory to which access failed, i.e. [gpa, gpa + len). 'flags' is
+currently always zero.
+
+NOTE: The implementation of this capability is incomplete. Even with it enabled,
+userspace may receive "bare" EFAULTs (i.e. exit reason !=
+KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT) from KVM_RUN. These should be considered bugs and
+reported to the maintainers.
