[PATCH v2 00/19] arm64: GICv3 support

[Marc Zyngier]

GICv3 is the base for a new generation of interrupt controllers
designed to overcome some of the most glaring limitations of GICv2.

Some of the features are:
- Support for more than 8 CPUs (a lot more...)
- System registers for CPU interface access (instead of the memory
  mapped GICC, GICV, GICH)
- Message based interrupts

This patch series currently support:
- Affinity Routing
- System Registers
- Non-Secure Group-1 interrupts only
- KVM support (GICv3 host, GICv2 guest)

What is *not yet* supported in this series:
- LPI/ITS/MSI (patches are available in the below branch,
  though still in development)
- KVM GICv3 guest support (requires GICv3 distributor emulation, WIP)
- Any form of power management
- 32bit systems

To be built, this code requires a fairly recent compiler/binutils
combo. Linaro 13.06 seems to do the trick. This has been tested on the
ARM FVP and Foundation models, with non-regressions run on a VExpress
TC-2.

So far, the level of reviewing has been embarassingly low (my sincere
thanks to Christoffer and Will for undertaking it). While the
documentation is unfortunately not public yet, it is available to
those actively implementing GICv3 in their hardware, and I'm really
eager to see reviews and test reports.

Without that kind of engagement, it is unlikely that this code will
get merged any time soon. Individuals without access to documentation
and/or hardware can still review the code (it shares a lot of concepts
with GICv2) and test in on the freely available Foundation model (see
http://releases.linaro.org/latest/openembedded/aarch64/ for details on
how to use the Foundation model).

The code is also available at the following location (warning,
unstable branch!):
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/maz/arm-platforms.git kvm-arm64/gicv3

* From the initial revision [1]
  - Some code sharing with GICv2
  - Barrier cleanup/clarification
  - Revised boot protocol update
  - Consistent use of the MPIDR access macros
  - Fixed a number of embarassing bugs
  - Fixed DT examples
  - Fixed bisectability of the series
