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.

+RapidIO Subsystem Guide
+=======================
+
+:Author: Matt Porter
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+RapidIO is a high speed switched fabric interconnect with features aimed
+at the embedded market. RapidIO provides support for memory-mapped I/O
+as well as message-based transactions over the switched fabric network.
+RapidIO has a standardized discovery mechanism not unlike the PCI bus
+standard that allows simple detection of devices in a network.
+
+This documentation is provided for developers intending to support
+RapidIO on new architectures, write new drivers, or to understand the
+subsystem internals.
+
+Known Bugs and Limitations
+==========================
+
+Bugs
+----
+
+None. ;)
+
+Limitations
+-----------
+
+1. Access/management of RapidIO memory regions is not supported
+
+2. Multiple host enumeration is not supported
+
+RapidIO driver interface
+========================
+
+Drivers are provided a set of calls in order to interface with the
+subsystem to gather info on devices, request/map memory region
+resources, and manage mailboxes/doorbells.
