[RFC PATCH v7 16/28] KVM: arm64: Add SPE system registers to VCPU context

Thu Sep 3 09:06:11 PDT 2026
Add the SPE registers to the VCPU context. Guest writes to the service bit,
which change the state of the SPE maintenance interrupt, will be handled in
a subsequent patch.
Only the buffer registers are trapped, because KVM will need to keep track
of the buffer enabled state for dirty page logging, errata handling and to
sanitise writes to PMBLIMITR_EL1 based on the features exposed to the VM.
