When it comes to resetting the compat mode of the vCPUS, there are
two situations to consider:
(1) machine reset should set the compat mode back to the machine default,
    ie. spapr->max_compat_pvr
(2) hot plugged vCPUs should set their compat mode to mach the boot vCPU,
    ie. POWERPC_CPU(first_cpu)->compat_pvr

This is currently handled in two separate places: globally for all vCPUs
from the machine reset code for (1) and for each thread of a core from
the hotplug path for (2).

Since the machine reset code already resets all vCPUs, starting with boot
vCPU, consolidate the logic in spapr_reset_vcpu(). Special case the boot
vCPU so that it resets its compat mode back to the machine default. Any
other vCPU just need to match the compat mode of the boot vCPU.

Failing to set the compat mode during machine reset is a fatal error,
but not for hot plugged vCPUs. This is arguable because if we've been
able to set the boot vCPU compat mode at CAS or during machine reset,
it should definitely not fail for other vCPUs. Since spapr_reset_vcpu()
already has a fatal error path for kvm_check_mmu() failures, do the
same for ppc_set_compat().

This gets rid of an error path in spapr_core_plug(). It will allow
further simplifications.

This assumes that when it is called for a non-boot CPU, it has already
been called for the boot CPU..  Are we certain that's guaranteed by
the sequence of reset calls during a full machine reset?

This happens to be the case. Basically because the boot CPU core
is created (including registering its reset handler) first and
qemu_devices_reset() calls handlers in the same order they were
registered.

Right, I assumed it works for now, but it seems rather fragile, since
I'm not sure we're relying on guaranteed properties of the interface.
Is there any way we could at least assert() if things are called out
of order?

The reset handler interface is absolutely undocumented, so I guess we
have no formal guarantees at the present time. But since the current
implementation has the property, would it be acceptable to carve it
in stone with added documentation ? In the event of unlikely changes
to the reset handler logic, people would _just_ need to make sure
handlers are called in the same order they were registered.

Maybe. I'll look into it.

Yeah, maybe.

One other thing occurs to me: will we still do things in the right
order if the (initial) boot cpu is hot unplugged, then replugged
before a reset?

This can't happen AFAICT.

Error: Boot CPU core may not be unplugged

commit 62be8b044adf47327ebefdefb25f28a40316ebd0

    spapr: Prevent boot CPU core removal


So yes, this adds yet another road block on the way to support hot
unplug of the boot CPU. Is this a concern ?

If we go forward with this patch, maybe I should mention in the
changelog/documentation the various assumptions which this patch
is made under:
- reset handlers are called in the same order they were registered
- boot CPU registers its reset handler before other CPUs
- boot CPU cannot be hot unplugged

These guarantee that the boot core is always reset before other
cores during reset.

it might work for now but it seems fragile to me.

What if we  make compat mode a property and move setting it to machine code,
more precisely treat it like any other cpu feature property.
  
 if(need_compat_more)
    register_global_property(compat_mode)

that way when any cpu is created it will have this property set
and it won't depend on the order CPUs are created/reset

Oh yeah, I'd forgotten we did this.

Anyway, both you and Igor noted that this change is fragile, which
is true. So maybe we should just go on with the current behavior.

As mentioned in the changelog, one of the motivation to do this was
to get rid of the error path in spapr_core_plug() like other patches
in this series do for the other plug handlers. And I guess I should
do it like these other patches do : come up with a check in
spapr_core_pre_plug() that guarantees that ppc_set_compat() shouldn't
fail in spapr_core_plug() and can be passed &error_abort.

So I'll try to do just that. You can forget this patch.
