KVM: SVM: Add support for KVM_CAP_X86_BUS_LOCK_EXIT on SVM CPUs
Add support for KVM_CAP_X86_BUS_LOCK_EXIT on SVM CPUs with Bus Lock Threshold, which is close enough to VMX's Bus Lock Detection VM-Exit to allow reusing KVM_CAP_X86_BUS_LOCK_EXIT. The biggest difference between the two features is that Threshold is fault-like, whereas Detection is trap-like. To allow the guest to make forward progress, Threshold provides a per-VMCB counter which is decremented every time a bus lock occurs, and a VM-Exit is triggered if and only if the counter is '0'. To provide Detection-like semantics, initialize the counter to '0', i.e. exit on every bus lock, and when re-executing the guilty instruction, set the counter to '1' to effectively step past the instruction. Note, in the unlikely scenario that re-executing the instruction doesn't trigger a bus lock, e.g. because the guest has changed memory types or patched the guilty instruction, the bus lock counter will be left at '1', i.e. the guest will be able to do a bus lock on a different instruction. In a perfect world, KVM would ensure the counter is '0' if the guest has made forward progress, e.g. if RIP has changed. But trying to close that hole would incur non-trivial complexity, for marginal benefit; the intent of KVM_CAP_X86_BUS_LOCK_EXIT is to allow userspace rate-limit bus locks, not to allow for precise detection of problematic guest code. And, it's simply not feasible to fully close the hole, e.g. if an interrupt arrives before the original instruction can re-execute, the guest could step past a different bus lock.
