I wouldn't do that. Having had the privilege to waste 10 months of my
life doing a military service, I quickly discovered I didn't like
weapons nor those who carry them...

Not quite. SMC is undefined at EL0 (see C6.6.165), so it is not trapped
to EL2, but to EL1. KVM is not in the loop at all in that case.

If you want to exercise that path, you have to access something that
wouldn't trap to EL1, but that EL2 traps. I don't think we have much
stuff so far that can be used at EL0 and would be trapped to EL2,
unfortunately (the PMU code is probably the first thing we'll merge).

In the meantime, this test case is fairly pointless, I'm afraid...

Thanks,
