[PATCH v3 0/4] KVM: arm64: Add attribute to control GICD_TYPER2.nASSGIcap

[Raghavendra Rao Ananta]

A shortcoming of the GIC architecture is that there's an absolute limit on
the number of vPEs that can be tracked by the ITS. It is possible that
an operator is running a mix of VMs on a system, only wanting to provide
a specific class of VMs with hardware interrupt injection support.

The series introduces KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_FEATURE_nASSGIcap vGIC attribute to allow
the userspace to control GICD_TYPER2.nASSGIcap (GICv4.1) on a per-VM basis.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/kvmarm/20250514192159.1751538-1-rananta@google.com/

v1 -> v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250531012545.709887-1-oliver.upton@linux.dev/
 - Drop all use of GICv4 in the UAPI and KVM-internal helpers in favor
   of nASSGIcap. This changes things around to model a guest feature,
   not a host feature.

 - Consolidate UAPI into a single attribute and expect userspace to use
   to read the attribute for discovery, much like we do with the ID
   registers

 - Squash documentation together with implementation

 - Clean up maintenance IRQ attribute handling, which I ran into as part
   of reviewing this series

v2 -> v3:
 - Update checks in vgic-v3.c and vgic-v4.c to also include nASSGIcap (via
   vgic_supports_direct_sgis()) that's configured by the userspace. (Oliver)
