This series introduces support for creating and running guest virtual
machines while running on the Microsoft Hypervisor[0] as root partition.
This is done via an IOCTL interface accessed through /dev/mshv, similar to
/dev/kvm. Another series introducing this support was previously posted in
2021[1], and v4 of this series was last posted in 2023[2].

Patches 1-4 are small refactors and additions to Hyper-V code.
Patches 5-6 just export some definitions needed by /dev/mshv.
Patches 7-9 introduce some functionality and definitions in common code, that
is needed by the driver.
Patch 10 contains the driver code.

-----------------
[0] "Hyper-V" is more well-known, but it really refers to the whole stack
    including the hypervisor and other components that run in Windows
    kernel and userspace.
[1] Previous /dev/mshv patch series (2021) and discussion:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-hyperv/1632853875-20261-1-git-send-email-nunodasneves@linux.microsoft.com/
[2] v4 (2023):
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-hyperv/1696010501-24584-1-git-send-email-nunodasneves@linux.microsoft.com/

-----------------
Changes since v4:
* Slim down the IOCTL interface significantly, via several means:
  1. Use generic "passthrough" call MSHV_ROOT_HVCALL to replace many ioctls.
  2. Use MSHV_* versions of some of the HV_* definitions.
  3. Move hv headers out of uapi altogether, into include/hyperv/, see:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-hyperv/1732577084-2122-1-git-send-email-nunodasneves@linux.microsoft.com/
* Remove mshv_vtl module altogther, it will be posted in followup series
  * Also remove the parent "mshv" module which didn't serve much purpose
* Update and refactor parts of the driver code for clarity, extensibility

Changes since v3 (summarized):
* Clean up the error and debug logging:
  1. Add a set of macros vp_*() and partition_*() which call the equivalent
     dev_*(), passing the device from the partition struct
     * The new macros also print the partition and vp ids to aid debugging
	   and reduce repeated code
  2. Use dev_*() (mostly via the new macros) instead of pr_*() *almost*
  everywhere - in interrupt context we can't always get the device struct
  3. Remove pr_*() logging from hv_call.c and mshv_root_hv_call.c

Changes since v2 (summarized):
* Fix many checkpatch.pl --strict style issues
* Initialize status in get/set registers hypercall helpers
* Add missing return on error in get_vp_signaled_count

Changes since v1 (summarized):
* Clean up formatting, commit messages

Nuno Das Neves (9):
  hyperv: Convert Hyper-V status codes to strings
  arm64/hyperv: Add some missing functions to arm64
