You may have noticed that this now generates a warning on 4.4-rc4, as
you cannot have a const struct sys_reg_params anymore (we've changed a
number of things there to solve another bug).

vcpu_reg and ->Rt are now gone. To ease the transition, I've pushed a
patch on top of this series to my kvm-arm64/pmu-v5 branch. Feel free to
use it as a reference.
