handle_sthyi() always writes to guest memory if the sthyi function
code is zero in order to fault in the page that later is written to.
However a function code of zero does not necessarily mean that a write
to guest memory happens: if the KVM host is running as a second level
guest under z/VM 6.2 the sthyi instruction is indicated to be
available to the KVM host, however if the instruction is executed it
will always return with a return code that indicates "unsupported
function code".
In such a case handle_sthyi() must not write to guest memory. This
means that the prior write access to fault in the guest page may
result in invalid guest exceptions, and/or invalid data modification.
In order to be architecture compliant simply remove the write_guest()
call.
Given that the guest assumed a write access anyway, this fix does not
qualify for -stable. This just makes sure the sthyi handler is
architecture compliant.

sthyi should only generate a specification exception if the function
code is zero and the response buffer is not on a 4k boundary.
The current code would also test for unknown function codes if the
response buffer, that is currently only defined for function code 0,
is not on a 4k boundary and incorrectly inject a specification
exception instead of returning with condition code 3 and return code 4
(unsupported function code).
Fix this by moving the boundary check.

The sthyi inline assembly misses register r3 within the clobber
list. The sthyi instruction will always write a return code to
register "R2+1", which in this case would be r3. Due to that we may
have register corruption and see host crashes or data corruption
depending on how gcc decided to allocate and use registers during
compile time.

Right now we handle the STHYI only via the operation exception intercept
(illegal instruction). If hardware ever decides to provide an
instruction intercept for STHYI, we should handle that as well.

Diag224 requires a page-aligned 4k buffer to store the name table
into. kmalloc does not guarantee page alignment, hence we replace it
with __get_free_page for the buffer allocation.

Store hypervisor information is a valid instruction not only in
supervisor state but also in problem state, i.e. the guest's
userspace. Its execution is not only computational and memory
intensive, but also has to get hold of the ipte lock to write to the
guest's memory.
This lock is not intended to be held often and long, especially not
from the untrusted guest userspace. Therefore we apply rate limiting
of sthyi executions per VM.

Store Hypervisor Information is an emulated z/VM instruction that
provides a guest with basic information about the layers it is running
on. This includes information about the cpu configuration of both the
machine and the lpar, as well as their names, machine model and
machine type. This information enables an application to determine the
maximum capacity of CPs and IFLs available to software.
The instruction is available whenever the facility bit 74 is set,
otherwise executing it results in an operation exception.
It is important to check the validity flags in the sections before
using data from any structure member. It is not guaranteed that all
members will be valid on all machines / machine configurations.
