KVM: s390: introduce ais mode modify function
Provide an interface for userspace to modify AIS (adapter-interruption-suppression) mode state, and add documentation for the interface. Allowed target modes are ALL-Interruptions mode and SINGLE-Interruption mode. We introduce the 'simm' and 'nimm' fields in kvm_s390_float_interrupt to store interruption modes for each ISC. Each bit in 'simm' and 'nimm' targets to one ISC, and collaboratively indicate three modes: ALL-Interruptions, SINGLE-Interruption and NO-Interruptions. This interface can initiate most transitions between the states; transition from SINGLE-Interruption to NO-Interruptions via adapter interrupt injection will be introduced in a following patch. The meaningful combinations are as follows: interruption mode | simm bit | nimm bit ------------------|----------|---------- ALL | 0 | 0 SINGLE | 1 | 0 NO | 1 | 1 Besides, add tracepoint to track AIS mode transitions.
