[Qemu-ppc] [PATCH v2 4/4] spapr: Introduce FWNMI KVM capability

[Aravinda Prasad]

Introduce a new KVM capability to control how KVM
behaves on machine check exception.

Without this capability, KVM redirects machine check
exceptions to guest's 0x200 vector if the address in
error belongs to guest. With this capability KVM
causes a guest exit with NMI exit reason.

This is required to avoid problem if a new kernel/KVM
is used with an old QEMU. As old QEMU might not
understand the new NMI exit type and treat it as a
fatal error, even though the guest could have actually
handled the error if the exception was delivered to
guest's 0x200 interrupt vector.

PS: KVM_CAP_PPC_FWNMI is set to 121 as 119 and 120 are
used by KVM_CAP_GUEST_DEBUG_HW_BPS and KVM_CAP_GUEST_DEBUG_HW_WPS
in KVM code, but still not reflected in QEMU code.
