[PATCH 1/1] KVM: Add KVM_GET_REG_LIST ioctl for LoongArch

This ioctl can be used by userspace applications to determine which
(special) registers are get/set-able.

This can be very useful for cross-platform VMMs so that they do not have
to hardcode register indices for each supported architectures.

For example, this ioctl could be used by rust-vmm/rust-kvm or maybe
VirtualBox-kvm in the future.
