We need to be able to read and write the contents of the EPR register
from user space.
This patch implements that logic through the ONE_REG API and declares
its (never implemented) SREGS counterpart as deprecated.

The EPR register is potentially valid for PR KVM as well, so we need
to emulate accesses to it. It's only defined for reading, so only
handle the mfspr case.

When injecting an interrupt into guest context, we usually don't need
to check for requests anymore. At least not until today.
With the introduction of EPR, we will have to create a request when the
guest has successfully accepted an external interrupt though.
So we need to
The External Proxy Facility in FSL BookE chips allows the interrupt
controller to automatically acknowledge an interrupt as soon as a
core gets its pending external interrupt delivered.
Today, user space implements the interrupt controller, so we need to
check on it during such a cycle.
This patc
The FSL MPIC implementation contains a feature called "external proxy
facility" which allows for interrupts to be acknowledged in the MPIC
as soon as a core accepts its pending external interrupt.
This patch set implements all the necessary pieces to support this
from the kernel space side.
