Nested PAPR API provides a standard Guest State Buffer (GSB) format

Introducing helper routines for state exchange of each of the nested guest
state elements for which get/set state should be supported by the API.
This is doing more than just adding helper routines for the GSB access.
Yes, some of the GSB elements are also introduced along with respective
helpers.

It's adding new fields in existing nested guest state
structures. This should be explained a bit more, split into
another patch, or moved to patches where they get used.
Yes, these new fields are actually representing GSB elements.
These elements were explained in the documentation patch which shall now
point to the documentation in the kernel docs as suggested earlier.
Let me know if we need to document additionally in this patch commit log
also.

Harsh
