Hi,

This series contains several fixes for guest feature trapping and
enabling in pKVM, as well as a bit of tidying up.

Changes from v6 [1]:
- Fixes to the patch that tracks KVM IOCTLs and their associated KVM
  caps. Move static header data and function definitions to arm.c.
- Introduce a capability KVM_CAP_ARM_BASIC instead of KVM_CAP_CORE,
  since it is ARM-specific and that it only checks basic ARM ioctls.
- Tidying up code and commit messages.
- Based on Linux 6.18

Cheers,
