[PATCH 0/7] ARM: KVM: Support for vgic-v3

Hi,

This is an attempt to make use vgic-v3 under arch/arm since save-restore
functionality got re-written in C and can be shared between arm/arm64
like it has already been done for vgic-v2 and timer.

With this patches I'm able to get 32 core ARMv7 guest boot:

...
GICv3: CPU31: found redistributor 703 region 0:0x000000003ffd0000
CPU31: thread -1, cpu 3, socket 7, mpidr 80000703
Brought up 32 CPUs
SMP: Total of 32 processors activated (768.00 BogoMIPS).
CPU: All CPU(s) started in SVC mode.
...

Additionally, quite lightweight test based on Self IPI guest test[1]
has been run with up to 255 cpus.

Thanks!
