James Hogan 00104b4171 KVM: MIPS: Drop partial KVM_NMI implementation
MIPS incompletely implements the KVM_NMI ioctl to supposedly perform a
CPU reset, but all it actually does is invalidate the ASIDs. It doesn't
expose the KVM_CAP_USER_NMI capability which is supposed to indicate the
presence of the KVM_NMI ioctl, and no user software actually uses it on
MIPS.

Since this is dead code that would technically need updating for GVA
page table handling in upcoming patches, remove it now. If we wanted to
implement NMI injection later it can always be done properly along with
the KVM_CAP_USER_NMI capability, and if we wanted to implement a proper
CPU reset it would be better done with a separate ioctl.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
