[PATCH v5 21/24] KVM: arm64: Inject recorded guest interrupts

[Oliver Upton]

In no situation should KVM be injecting a "recorded" IRQ. The overflow
condition of the PMU is well defined in the architecture and we should
implement *exactly* that.

How do we know that the vPMU has been loaded on the CPU at this point?

I'd rather reuse kvm_pmu_overflow_status(), relying on the accessors to
abstract away the implementation / location of the guest PMU context.
