[PATCH 0/3] KVM: PPC: Book3S: 64-bit CONFIG_RELOCATABLE fixes

Hi,

I didn't get any objections to the approach proposed in my
earlier RFC, so I've gone ahead with R12 = (CR | trap #) approach.
It avoided an extra register save with HV and the PR handler ended
up not being too bad.

This passed KVM boot testing with 64-bit HV and PR, with the (host)
kernel running at non-0. Without these patches, the same configuration
crashes immediately.

Thanks,
Nick
