Re: [PATCH 15/31] mips/kvm: Exception handling to leave and reenter guest mode.

Hi David,

I know it's been a while since you posted this patchset, but thought you
might appreciate the feedback anyway.

Some of my comments/suggestions relate to portability with MIPS32. I
don't object if you respond to those by just adding "depends on 64BIT"
so that I & others can fix it up in subsequent patches.

(I was going to say this could be made more portable by using the lowest
bit of PTEBASE (i.e. bit PTEBASE_SHIFT) for the guest mode state instead
of bit 63, and setting CPU_ID_MASK to -2 to mask off the lowest instead
of highest bit, but now I see you test it with bgez... In that case I
suppose it makes sense to use bit 31 for 32BIT, which still leaves 6
bits for the processor id - potentially expandable back to 7 by shifting
the processor id down a couple of bits and utilising the masking that
you've added).

I suspect this shouldn't be here since both users of the macro already
seem to ensure it's done.

Should that be s/k0/\temp/?

brief comments around here would make it easier to follow, e.g.

you don't appear to have defined a !CONFIG_SMP version of
get_saved_sp_for_save_some?

Looks like we need a LONG_INS (and friends) defined in asm.h for this

Lets define a CPU_ID_MTC0 similar to CPU_ID_MFC0.

Is this an optimisation? It's unclear why it's been moved.

I think li will do here.
