The tests for emulation of compute instructions execute and
emulate an instruction and then compare the results to verify the
emulation. In ISA v3.1 there are instructions that operate relative to
the NIP. Therefore set the NIP in the regs used for the emulated
instruction to the location of the executed instruction so they will
give the same result.
This is a rework of a patch by Balamuruhan S.

PowerISA v3.1 has few updates for the Branch History Rolling
Buffer(BHRB).
BHRB disable is controlled via Monitor Mode Control Register A (MMCRA)
bit, namely "BHRB Recording Disable (BHRBRD)". This field controls
whether BHRB entries are written when BHRB recording is enabled by
other bits. This patch implements support for this BHRB disable bit.
By setting 0b1 to this bit will disable the BHRB and by setting 0b0 to
this bit will have BHRB enabled. This addresses backward
compatibility (for older OS), since this bit will be cleared and
hardware will be writing to BHRB by default.
This patch addresses changes to set MMCRA (BHRBRD) at boot for
power10 (there by the core will run faster) and enable this feature
only on runtime ie, on explicit need from user. Also save/restore
MMCRA in the restore path of state-loss idle state to make sure we
keep BHRB disabled if it was not enabled on request at runtime.

implement PROT_SAO. PROT_SAO was used by specialised system software
(Lx86) that has been discontinued for about 7 years, and is not thought

We rather remove it than keep support for older processors, because
live migrating guest partitions to newer processors may not be possible
if SAO is in use (or worse allowed with silent races).
- PROT_SAO stays in the uapi header so code using it would still build.
- arch_validate_prot() is removed, the generic version rejects PROT_SAO

To enable memory unplug without splitting kernel page table
mapping, we force the max mapping size to the LMB size. LMB
size is the unit in which hypervisor will do memory add/remove
operation.
Pseries systems supports max LMB size of 256MB. Hence on pseries,
we now end up mapping memory with 2M page size instead of 1G. To improve
that we want hypervisor to hint the kernel about the hotplug
memory range. That was added that as part of
commit b6eca183e2 ("powerpc/kernel: Enables memory
hot-remove after reboot on pseries guests")
But PowerVM doesn't provide that hint yet. Once we get PowerVM
updated, we can then force the 2M mapping only to hot-pluggable
memory region using memblock_is_hotpluggable(). Till then
let's depend on LMB size for finding the mapping page size
for linear range.
With this change KVM guest will also be doing linear mapping with
2M page size.
The actual TLB benefit of mapping guest page table entries with
hugepage size can only be materialized if the partition scoped
entries are also using the same or higher page size. A guest using
1G hugetlbfs backing guest memory can have a performance impact with
the above change.
