Subject: [PATCH v2 0/6] KVM: arm64: emulation for CTR_EL0

Hej folks,

I'm looking into supporting migration between 2 Ampere Altra (Max)
machines (using Neoverse-N1). They are almost identical regarding
their feature id register state except for CTR_EL0.DIC which is set
on one machine but not the other.

CTR_EL0 is currently marked as invariant and migrating a VM between
those 2 machines using qemu fails.

Changes RFC [0] -> V1 [1]:
 * store the emulated value per VM and not per VCPU
 * allow to change more values than just the DIC bit
 * only trap guest access to that reg when needed
 * make sure to not present the guest with an inconsistent register set
Changes V1 -> V2:
 * implemented Marc's suggestion for keeping registers consistent while
   not breaking userspace ABI / expectations (I hope correctly this time)
 * keep the shadowed value valid at all time
 * unify the code to setup traps

Note:
* in order to switch off CTR_EL0.IDC userspace first has to set up
  CLIDR_EL1 accordingly
* reading CCSIDR before and after changing the cache size in CTR_EL0
  could result in different values (but only if CCSIDR was not changed
  from the generated value)
* I'll prepare a testcase for the next revision

Thanks,
Sebastian
