Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have
a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing
support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed
when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file.
This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h
in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. In the case of
kvm where it is modular, we can extend that to also include files
that are building basic support functionality but not related
to loading or registering the final module; such files also have
no need whatsoever for module.h
The advantage in removing such instances is that module.h itself
sources about 15 other headers; adding significantly to what we feed
cpp, and it can obscure what headers we are effectively using.
Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for
export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each instance for the
presence of either and replace as needed. In this case, we did
not need to add either to any files.

The comm page which is mapped into the guest kernel address space at
0x0 has the unfortunate side effect of allowing guest kernel NULL
pointer dereferences to succeed. The only constraint on this address is
that it must be within 32KiB of 0x0, so that single lw/sw instructions
(which have 16-bit signed offset fields) can be used to access it, using
the zero register as a base.
So lets move the comm page as high as possible within that constraint so
that 0x0 can be left unmapped, at least for page sizes < 32KiB.

The commpage is allocated using kzalloc(), so there's no need of cleaning
the memory of the kvm_mips_commpage struct and its internal mips_coproc.

Since all the files are in arch/mips/kvm/, there's no need of the prefixes
"kvm_" and "kvm_mips_".
