David S. Miller c7754d465b [SPARC64]: Add hypervisor API negotiation and fix console bugs.
Hypervisor interfaces need to be negotiated in order to use
some API calls reliably.  So add a small set of interfaces
to request API versions and query current settings.

This allows us to fix some bugs in the hypervisor console:

1) If we can negotiate API group CORE of at least major 1
   minor 1 we can use con_read and con_write which can improve
   console performance quite a bit.

2) When we do a console write request, we should hold the
   spinlock around the whole request, not a byte at a time.
   What would happen is that it's easy for output from
   different cpus to get mixed with each other.

3) Use consistent udelay() based polling, udelay(1) each
   loop with a limit of 1000 polls to handle stuck hypervisor
   console.
