[PATCH v6 0/6] Support for H_RPT_INVALIDATE in PowerPC KVM

This patchset adds support for the new hcall H_RPT_INVALIDATE
and replaces the nested tlb flush calls with this new hcall
if support for the same exists.

Changes in v6:
-------------
- Split the patch that adds hcall support in to three parts so that
  it becomes easy to understand.
  part1: hcall support for L1 guest
  part2: hcall support for nested guests
  part3: add KVM_CAP_PPC_RPT_INVALIDATE
- Renames, comments and code reorgs to improve readability of the
  patches.
- Added a patch to fix comments in hcall args (Aneesh).
- Added hcall documentation as part of commit message.
- Correct handling for partition-scoped invalidation of nested
  guests (Aneesh).

I haven't addressed the optimization that David suggested for
psize_to_rpti_pgsize() and that could be done later separately.

This patchset passes the following tests:
-----------------------------------------
- Boot and reboot of L1, L2 and L3 guests with GTSE=0.
- Boot and reboot of L1 and multiple L2 guests with GTSE=0
- vm class stress-ng tests on L3 with GTSE=0
- Boot and reboot of L1, L2 and L3 guest with GTSE=1
