KVM: SEV: Do cache maintenance on the source VM during intra-host migrationgrafted
Manually perform cache maintenance on the source VM during intra-host migration to ensure no stale data is left in CPU caches after the VM is destroyed. Because the source VM is "converted" to a non-SEV VM, KVM's memory reclaim flows won't trigger cache maintenance, e.g. when all guest memory is reclaimed in response to detaching from the mmu_notifier. Note, relying on the destination VM to do cache maintenance isn't an option as KVM doesn't require identical guest memory configurations, i.e. the source VM may have access to memory that the destination VM does not. Enforcing equivalent memory configurations is infeasible, as it would require a *deep* comparison of memslots, e.g. to verify that not only are the memslot identical, but what the memslots point at is also identical.

+What: /sys/kernel/irq
+Date: September 2016
+KernelVersion: 4.9
+Contact: Craig Gallek <kraig@google.com>
+Description: Directory containing information about the system's IRQs.
+ Specifically, data from the associated struct irq_desc.
+ The information here is similar to that in /proc/interrupts
+ but in a more machine-friendly format. This directory contains
+ one subdirectory for each Linux IRQ number.

+What: /sys/kernel/irq/<irq>/actions
+Date: September 2016
+KernelVersion: 4.9
+Contact: Craig Gallek <kraig@google.com>
+Description: The IRQ action chain. A comma-separated list of zero or more
+ device names associated with this interrupt.
+
+What: /sys/kernel/irq/<irq>/chip_name
+Date: September 2016
+KernelVersion: 4.9
+Contact: Craig Gallek <kraig@google.com>
+Description: Human-readable chip name supplied by the associated device
+ driver.

+ the underlying hardware IRQ number used for this Linux IRQ.

+What: /sys/kernel/irq/<irq>/name

+Date: September 2016
+KernelVersion: 4.9
+Contact: Craig Gallek <kraig@google.com>
+Description: The number of times the interrupt has fired since boot. This
+ is a comma-separated list of counters; one per CPU in CPU id
+ order. NOTE: This file consistently shows counters for all
+ CPU ids. This differs from the behavior of /proc/interrupts
+ which only shows counters for online CPUs.
+
+What: /sys/kernel/irq/<irq>/type
+Date: September 2016
+KernelVersion: 4.9
+Contact: Craig Gallek <kraig@google.com>
+Description: The type of the interrupt. Either the string 'level' or 'edge'.

+Date: March 2018
+KernelVersion: 4.17
+Contact: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com>
+Description: The wakeup state of the interrupt. Either the string
+ 'enabled' or 'disabled'.
