This patch introduces a new KVM capability to control
how KVM behaves on machine check exception (MCE).
Without this capability, KVM redirects machine check
exceptions to guest's 0x200 vector, if the address in
error belongs to the guest. With this capability KVM
causes a guest exit with NMI exit r

Enhance KVM to cause a guest exit with KVM_EXIT_NMI
exit reason upon a machine check exception (MCE) in
the guest address space if the KVM_CAP_PPC_FWNMI
capability is enabled (instead of delivering a 0x200
interrupt to guest). This enables QEMU to build error
log and deliver machine check exception

Since this is meant as a cleanup, I commented on this to point out a cleaner
way to do the same.

How can it make any sense to have -fno-stack-protector and

Ben.
Add detection of NPU2 PHBs. NPU2/NVLink2 has a different register
layout for the TCE kill register therefore TCE invalidation should be
done via the OPAL call rather than using the register directly as it
is for PHB3 and NVLink1. This changes TCE invalidation to use the OPAL
