This patchset adds API for saving and restoring
of VGICv3 registers to support live migration with new vgic feature.
This API definition is as per version of VGICv3 specification
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2016-July/445611.html

To test live migration with QEMU, use below patch series
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-08/msg01444.html

The patch 3 & 4 are picked from the Pavel's previous implementation.
http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg122040.html

v1 => v2:
 - The init sequence change patch is no more required.
   Fixed in patch 2 by using static vgic_io_dev regions structure instead
   of using dynamic allocation pointer.
 - Updated commit message of patch 4.
 - Dropped usage of union to manage 32-bit and 64-bit access in patch 1.
   Used local variable for 32-bit access.
 - Updated macro __ARM64_SYS_REG and ARM64_SYS_REG in 
   arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h as per qemu requirements.

Vijaya Kumar K (4):
  arm/arm64: vgic-new: Introduce 64-bit reg access support
  arm/arm64: vgic-new: Add distributor and redistributor access
  arm/arm64: vgic-new: Introduce find_reg_by_id()
  arm/arm64: vgic-new: Implement VGICv3 CPU interface access
