[PATCH v2 03/12] KVM: arm64: nv: Publish emulated timer interrupt state in the in-memory state

[Marc Zyngier]

With FEAT_NV2, the EL0 timer state is entirely stored in memory,
meaning that the hypervisor can only provide a very poor emulation.

The only thing we can really do is to publish the interrupt state
in the guest view of CNT{P,V}_CTL_EL0, and defer everything else
to the next exit.

Only FEAT_ECV will allow us to fix it, at the cost of extra trapping.
