Now we have a working '-cpu max', the linux-user-only
'any' CPU is pretty much the same thing, so implement it
that way.
For the moment we don't add any of the extra feature bits
to the system-emulation "max", because we don't set the
ID register bits we would need to to advertise those
features as present.
Backports commit a0032cc5427d0d396aa0a9383ad9980533448ea4 from qemu
Add support for "-cpu max" for ARM guests. This CPU type behaves
like "-cpu host" when KVM is enabled, and like a system CPU with
the maximum possible feature set otherwise. (Note that this means
it won't be migratable across versions, as we will likely add
features to it in future.)
Backports commit bab52d4bba3f22921a690a887b4bd0342f2754cd from qemu
The cortex A53 TRM specifies that bits 24 and 25 of the L2CTLR register
specify the number of cores in the processor, not the total number of
cores in the system. To report this correctly on machines with multiple
CPU clusters (ARM's big.LITTLE or Xilinx's ZynqMP) we need to allow
the machine to overwrite this value. To do this let's add an optional
property.
Backports commit f9a697112ee64180354f98309a5d6b691cc8699d from qemu
A few block drivers will need to rename .bdrv_create options for their
QAPIfication, so let's have a helper function for that.

Backports commit 9a069775a8087cbd6fa8c479b69be8d37bd90351 from qemu
This shares an cached empty FlatView among address spaces. The empty
FV is used every time when a root MR renders into a FV without memory
sections which happens when MR or its children are not enabled or
zero-sized. The empty_view is not NULL to keep the rest of memory
API intact; it also has a dispatch tree for the same reason.
On POWER8 with 255 CPUs, 255 virtio-net, 40 PCI bridges guest this halves
the amount of FlatView's in use (557 -> 260) and dispatch tables
(~800000 -> ~370000). In an unrelated experiment with 112 non-virtio
devices on x86 ("-M pc"), only 4 FlatViews are alive, and about ~2000
are created at startup.
Backports commit 092aa2fc65b7a35121616aad8f39d47b8f921618 from qemu
A container can be used instead of an alias to allow switching between
multiple subregions. In this case we cannot directly share the
subregions (since they only belong to a single parent), but if the
subregions are aliases we can in turn walk those.
This is not enough to remove all source of quadratic FlatView creation,
but it enables sharing of the PCI bus master FlatViews (and their
AddressSpaceDispatch structures) across all PCI devices. For 112
virtio-net-pci devices, boot time is reduced from 25 to 10 seconds and
memory consumption from 1.4 to 1 G.
Backports commit e673ba9af9bf8fd8e0f44025ac738b8285b3ed27 from qemu
This avoids usual memory_region_transaction_commit() which rebuilds
all FVs.
On POWER8 with 255 CPUs, 255 virtio-net, 40 PCI bridges guest this brings
down the boot time from 25s to 20s and reduces the amount of temporary FVs
allocated during machine constructon (~800000 -> ~640000) and amount of
temporary dispatch trees (~370000 -> ~300000), the total memory footprint
goes down (18G -> 17G).
Backports commit 202fc01b05572ecb258fdf4c5bd56cf6de8140c7 from qemu
Since FlatViews are shared now and ASes not, this gets rid of
address_space_init_shareable().
This should cause no behavioural change.
Backports commit b516572f31c0ea0937cd9d11d9bd72dd83809886 from qemu
This creates a new AS object without any FlatView as
memory_region_transaction_commit() may want to reuse the empty FV.
