H A Dkvm.c70a0c19e83aa4c71c879d51e426e89e4b3d4e014 Thu Sep 14 10:48:04 UTC 2017 Greg Kurz <groug@kaod.org> ppc/kvm: use kvm_vm_check_extension() in kvmppc_is_pr()

If the host has both KVM PR and KVM HV loaded and we pass:

-machine pseries,accel=kvm,kvm-type=PR

the kvmppc_is_pr() returns false instead of true. Since the helper
is mostly used as fallback, it doesn't have any real impact with
recent kernels. A notable exception is the workaround to allow
migration between compatible hosts with different PVRs (eg, POWER8
and POWER8E), since KVM still doesn't provide a way to check if a
specific PVR is supported (see commit c363a37a450f for details).

According to the official KVM API documentation [1], KVM_PPC_GET_PVINFO
is "vm ioctl", but we check it as a global ioctl. The following function
in KVM is hence called with kvm == NULL and considers we're in HV mode.

int kvm_vm_ioctl_check_extension(struct kvm *kvm, long ext)
{
int r;
/* Assume we're using HV mode when the HV module is loaded */
int hv_enabled = kvmppc_hv_ops ? 1 : 0;

if (kvm) {
/*
* Hooray - we know which VM type we're running on. Depend on
* that rather than the guess above.
*/
hv_enabled = is_kvmppc_hv_enabled(kvm);
}

Let's use kvm_vm_check_extension() to fix the issue.
