Any write to a device might cause a re-arrangement of memory
triggering a TLB flush and potential re-size of the TLB invalidating
previous entries. This would cause users of qemu_plugin_get_hwaddr()
to see the warning:
invalid use of qemu_plugin_get_hwaddr
because of the failed tlb_lookup which should always succeed. To
prevent this we save the IOTLB data in case it is later needed by a
plugin doing a lookup.

v2
- save the entry instead of re-running the tlb_fill.
v3
- don't abuse TLS, use CPUState to store data
- just use g_free_rcu() to avoid ugliness
- verify addr matches before returning data
- ws fix
v4
- don't both with RCU, just store it in CPUState
- clean-up #ifdef'ery
- checkpatch

As I mentioned in the previous iteration of this series, this comment is outdated -- there is no thread storage nor RCU to worry about here. > + * This almost never fails as the memory access being instrumented > + * should have just filled the TLB.

I see that qemu_plugin_get_hwaddr does not even take a vCPU index, so this should be OK -- as long as this is called only from a mem callback, it's in the same vCPU thread and it's therefore safe. With the above comments fixed, Reviewed-by: Emilio G. Cota <cota@braap.org> Thanks, Emilio
