[PATCH 0/2] Preliminary cleanups for HPT resizing

[David Gibson]

Hi Paul,

I'm still chasing this confusion about the CAS bit to send the real
HPT resizing patches.  However, in the meantime, here are some
preliminary cleanups.

These cleanups stand on their own, although I wrote them in the
context of writing the HPT resizing code, and are prerequisites for
those patches.

[PATCH 1/2] kvm: Move KVM_PPC_PVINFO_FLAGS_EV_IDLE definition next to its structure

[David Gibson]

The KVM_PPC_PVINFO_FLAGS_EV_IDLE macro defines a bit for use in the flags
field of struct kvm_ppc_pvinfo.  However, changes since that was introduced
have moved it away from that structure definition, which is confusing.

Move it back next to the structure it belongs with.

[PATCH 2/2] powerpc/kvm: Corectly report KVM_CAP_PPC_ALLOC_HTAB

[David Gibson]

At present KVM on powerpc always reports KVM_CAP_PPC_ALLOC_HTAB as enabled.
However, the ioctl() it advertises (KVM_PPC_ALLOCATE_HTAB) only actually
works on KVM HV.  On KVM PR it will fail with ENOTTY.

qemu already has a workaround for this, so it's not breaking things in
practice, but it would be better to advertise this correctly.

Thanks, series applied to my kvm-ppc-next branch.

Paul.
