Subject: [PATCH 0/3] KVM: arm64: Use generic guest entry infrastructure

The arm64 kernel doesn't yet support the full generic entry
infrastructure. That being said, KVM/arm64 doesn't properly handle
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME and could pick this up by switching to the generic
guest entry infrasturture.

Patch 1 adds a missing vCPU stat to ARM64 to record the number of signal
exits to userspace.

Patch 2 unhitches entry-kvm from entry-generic, as ARM64 doesn't
currently support the generic infrastructure.

Patch 3 replaces the open-coded entry handling with the generic xfer
function.

This series was tested on an Ampere Mt. Jade reference system. The
series cleanly applies to kvm/queue (note that this is deliberate as the
generic kvm stats patches have not yet propagated to kvm-arm/queue) at
the following commit:

8ad5e63649ff ("KVM: Don't take mmu_lock for range invalidation unless necessary")

Subject: [PATCH 1/3] KVM: arm64: Record number of signal exits as a vCPU stat

Most other architectures that implement KVM record a statistic
indicating the number of times a vCPU has exited due to a pending
signal. Add support for that stat to arm64.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] KVM: arm64: Use generic KVM xfer to guest work function

Clean up handling of checks for pending work by switching to the generic
infrastructure to do so.

We pick up handling for TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME from this switch, meaning that
task work will be correctly handled.

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] entry: KVM: Allow use of generic KVM entry w/o full generic support

Some architectures (e.g. arm64) have yet to adopt the generic entry
infrastructure. Despite that, it would be nice to use some common
plumbing for guest entry/exit handling. For example, KVM/arm64 currently
does not handle TIF_NOTIFY_PENDING correctly.

Allow use of only the generic KVM entry code by tightening up the
include list. No functional change intended.

How about put signal_exits before exits as the same order in
