this sounds expensive, and I suggested an alternative approach in the
previsou patch. In any case, measuring the impact on this on hardware
would be a great idea...

can you not find some way of unifying cp14_pop_and_write with
cp14_ldr_and_write and cp14_read_and_push with cp14_read_and_str ?
Probably having two separate structs for the VFP state on the vcpu struct
for both the guest and the host state is one possible way of doing so.

You have a lot of multi-line comments in these patches which don't start
with a separate '/*' line, as dictated by the Linux kernel coding style.
So far, I've ignored this, but please fix all these throughout the
series when you respin.
