KVM: PPC: Allow kvmppc_get_last_inst() to fail
On book3e, guest last instruction is read on the exit path using load external pid (lwepx) dedicated instruction. This load operation may fail due to TLB eviction and execute-but-not-read entries. This patch lay down the path for an alternative solution to read the guest last instruction, by allowing kvmppc_get_lat_inst() function to fail. Architecture specific implmentations of kvmppc_load_last_inst() may read last guest instruction and instruct the emulation layer to re-execute the guest in case of failure. Make kvmppc_get_last_inst() definition common between architectures. Signed-off-by: Mihai Caraman <mihai.caraman@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
