What is the purpose of declaring the register array as a separate
structure? It has no meaning (nor use) outside of the context of a VM.
I'd prefer the 'regs' array be embedded directly in kvm_arch, and just
name it 'idregs'. You can move your macro definitions there as well to
immediately precede the field.

Personally, I find passing 'kvm_arch' around to be a bit clunky. Almost
all functions in KVM take 'struct kvm' as an argument, even if it only
accesses the data in 'kvm_arch'.
So, I'd prefer if all these helpers took 'struct kvm *'.

What exactly are we protecting against by taking the config_lock here?
While I do believe there is value in serializing writers to the shared
data, there isn't a need to serialize reads from the guest.
What about implementing the following:
- Acquire the config_lock for handling writes. Only allow the value to
change if !kvm_vm_has_ran_once(). Otherwise, permit identical writes
(useful for hotplug, I imagine) or return EBUSY if userspace tried to
change something after running the VM.
- Acquire the config_lock for handling reads *from userspace*
- Handle reads from the guest with a plain old load, avoiding the need
to acquire any locks.
This has the benefit of avoiding lock contention for guest reads w/o
requiring the use of atomic loads/stores (i.e. {READ,WRITE}_ONCE()) to
protect said readers.

nit: use reverse christmas/fir tree ordering for locals.

I'll make the suggestion once more.
Please do not implement these sort of sanity checks on static data
structures at the point userspace has gotten involved. Sanity checking
on id_reg_descs[] should happen at the time KVM is initialized. If
anything is wrong at that point we should return an error and outright
refuse to run KVM.
