Convert the whole of locore.S (assembly to enter guest and handle
exception entry) to be generated dynamically with uasm. This is done
with minimal changes to the resulting code.
The main changes are:
- Some constants are generated by uasm using LUI+ADDIU instead of
LUI+ORI.
- Loading of lo and hi are swapped around in vcpu_run but not when
resuming the guest after an exit. Both bits of logic are now generated
by the same code.
- Register MOVEs in uasm use different ADDU operand ordering to GNU as,
putting zero register into rs instead of rt.
- The JALR.HB to call the C exit handler is switched to JALR, since the
hazard barrier would appear to be unnecessary.
This will allow further optimisation in the future to dynamically handle
the capabilities of the CPU.

Convert the MIPS kvm_host.h structs, function declaration prototypes and
associated definition prototypes to use standard kernel sized types
(e.g. u32) instead of inttypes.h style ones (e.g. uint32_t).

Copy __kvm_mips_vcpu_run() into unmapped memory, so that we can never
get a TLB refill exception in it when KVM is built as a module.
This was observed to happen with the host MIPS kernel running under
QEMU, due to a not entirely transparent optimisation in the QEMU TLB
handling where TLB entries replaced with TLBWR are copied to a separate
part of the TLB array. Code in those pages continue to be executable,
but those mappings persist only until the next ASID switch, even if they
are marked global.
An ASID switch happens in __kvm_mips_vcpu_run() at exception level after
switching to the guest exception base. Subsequent TLB mapped kernel
instructions just prior to switching to the guest trigger a TLB refill
exception, which enters the guest exception handlers without updating
EPC. This appears as a guest triggered TLB refill on a host kernel
mapped (host KSeg2) address, which is not handled correctly as user
(guest) mode accesses to kernel (host) segments always generate address
error exceptions.

Since all the files are in arch/mips/kvm/, there's no need of the prefixes
"kvm_" and "kvm_mips_".
