[PATCH v3 0/2] arm/arm64: KVM: Optimize arm64 fp/simd, saves 30-50% on exits

[Mario Smarduch]

Currently we save/restore fp/simd on each exit. Fist  patch optimizes arm64
save/restore, we only do so on Guest access. hackbench and
several lmbench tests show anywhere from 30% to above 50% optimzation
achieved.

In second patch 32-bit handler is updated to keep exit handling consistent
with 64-bit code.

Changes since v1:
- Addressed Marcs comments
- Verified optimization improvements with lmbench and hackbench, updated 
  commit message

Changes since v2:
- only for patch 2/2
  - Reworked trapping to vfp access handler

Changes since v3:
- Only for patch 2/2
  - Removed load_vcpu in switch_to_guest_vfp per Marcs comment
  - Got another chance to replace an unreferenced label with a comment


Mario Smarduch (2):
  Optimize arm64 skip 30-50% vfp/simd save/restore on exits
  keep arm vfp/simd exit handling consistent with arm64
