[PATCH 01/16] KVM-HDR: register KVM basic header infrastructure

[Glauber Costa <glommer@redhat.com>]

KVM, which stands for KVM Virtual Memory (I wanted to call it KVM Virtual Mojito),
is a piece of shared memory that is visible to both the hypervisor and the guest
kernel - but not the guest userspace.

The basic idea is that the guest can tell the hypervisor about a specific
piece of memory, and what it expects to find in there. This is a generic
abstraction, that goes to userspace (qemu) if KVM (the hypervisor) can't
handle a specific request, thus giving us flexibility in some features
in the future.

KVM (The hypervisor) can change the contents of this piece of memory at
will. This works well with paravirtual information, and hopefully
normal guest memory - like last update time for the watchdog, for
instance.

This is basic KVM registration headers. I am keeping headers
separate to facilitate backports to people who wants to backport
the kernel part but not the hypervisor, or the other way around.
