In the current kvm version, 'kvm_run' has been included in the 'kvm_vcpu'
structure. For historical reasons, many kvm-related function parameters
retain the 'kvm_run' and 'kvm_vcpu' parameters at the same time. This
patch does a unified cleanup of these remaining redundant parameters.

On the face of it, this looks OK, but I haven't tried to run the
resulting kernel. I'm not opposed to taking this patch *if* there
is an agreement across architectures to take the series (I value
consistency over the janitorial exercise).

Another thing is that this is going to conflict with the set of
patches that move the KVM/arm code back where it belongs (arch/arm64/kvm),
so I'd probably cherry-pick that one directly.

Thanks,

Do I need to submit this set of patches separately for each 
architecture? Could it be merged at once, if necessary, I will
resubmit based on the latest mainline.

Thanks,
Tianjia
