[PATCH 05/43] KVM: arm64: gic-v5: Extract host IRS caps from IRS config frame
Sascha Bischoff

The host irqchip driver provides KVM with a pointer to an IRS's config
frame, which allows KVM to directly interact with the host's IRS. The
MMIO registers in the config frame are used to configure VMs (in
addition to them being used by the host). The IRS's config frame also
includes a set of ID registers which describe the capabilities that
the IRS has.
Stash the pointer to the config frame, and extract the VM capabilities
(from IRS_IDR3 & IRS_IDR4), as well as the IST
capabilities/requirements (IRS_IDR2) from the IRS.
