MIPS: KVM: Dynamically choose scratch registers Scratch cop0 registers are needed by KVM to be able to save/restore all the GPRs, including k0/k1, and for storing the VCPU pointer. However no registers are universally suitable for these purposes, so the decision should be made at runtime. Until now, we've used DDATA_LO to store the VCPU pointer, and ErrorEPC as a temporary. It could be argued that this is abuse of those registers, and DDATA_LO is known not to be usable on certain implementations (Cavium Octeon). If KScratch registers are present, use them instead. We save & restore the temporary register in addition to the VCPU pointer register when using a KScratch register for it, as it may be used for normal host TLB handling too.
