e5ba90abb2 LoongArch: Revert qspinlock to test-and-set simple lock on VM
Similar with x86, when VM is detected, revert to a simple test-and-set
lock to avoid the horrors of queue preemption.

Tested on 3C5000 Dual-way machine with 32 cores and 2 numa nodes,
test case is kcbench on kernel mainline 6.10, the detailed command is
"kcbench --src /root/src/linux"

Performance on host machine
                      kernel compile time       performance impact
   Original           150.29 seconds
   With patch         150.19 seconds            almost no impact

Performance on virtual machine:
1. 1 VM with 32 vCPUs and 2 numa node, numa node pinned
                      kernel compile time       performance impact
   Original           170.87 seconds
   With patch         171.73 seconds            almost no impact

2. 2 VMs, each VM with 32 vCPUs and 2 numa node, numa node pinned
                      kernel compile time       performance impact
   Original           2362.04 seconds
   With patch         354.73  seconds            +565%

03779999ac LoongArch: KVM: Add PV steal time support in guest side
Per-cpu struct kvm_steal_time is added here, its size is 64 bytes and
also defined as 64 bytes, so that the whole structure is in one physical
page.

When a VCPU is online, function pv_enable_steal_time() is called. This
function will pass guest physical address of struct kvm_steal_time and
tells hypervisor to enable steal time. When a vcpu is offline, physical
address is set as 0 and tells hypervisor to disable steal time.

Here is an output of vmstat on guest when there is workload on both host
and guest. It shows steal time stat information.

74c16b2e2b LoongArch: KVM: Add PV IPI support on guest side
PARAVIRT config option and PV IPI is added for the guest side, function
pv_ipi_init() is used to add IPI sending and IPI receiving hooks. This
function firstly checks whether system runs in VM mode, and if kernel
runs in VM mode, it will call function kvm_para_available() to detect
the current hypervirsor type (now only KVM type detection is supported).
The paravirt functions can work only if current hypervisor type is KVM,
since there is only KVM supported on LoongArch now.

PV IPI uses virtual IPI sender and virtual IPI receiver functions. With
virtual IPI sender, IPI message is stored in memory rather than emulated
HW. IPI multicast is also supported, and 128 vcpus can received IPIs
at the same time like X86 KVM method. Hypercall method is used for IPI
sending.

With virtual IPI receiver, HW SWI0 is used rather than real IPI HW.
Since VCPU has separate HW SWI0 like HW timer, there is no trap in IPI
interrupt acknowledge. Since IPI message is stored in memory, there is
no trap in getting IPI message.
