KVM uses anon_inode_get() to allocate file descriptors as part
of some of its ioctls. But those ioctls are lacking a flag argument
allowing userspace to choose options for the newly opened file descriptor.
In such case it's advised to use O_CLOEXEC by default so that
userspace is allowed to choose, without race, if the file descriptor
is going to be inherited across exec().
This patch set O_CLOEXEC flag on all file descriptors created
with anon_inode_getfd() to not leak file descriptors across exec().

There is nothing in the code for emulating TCE tables in the kernel
that prevents it from working on "PR" KVM... other than ifdef's and
location of the code.
This and moves the bulk of the code there to a new file called
book3s_64_vio.c.
This speeds things up a bit on my G5.
