Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM:

   - Clean up vCPU targets, always returning generic v8 as the preferred
     target

   - Trap forwarding infrastructure for nested virtualization (used for
     traps that are taken from an L2 guest and are needed by the L1
     hypervisor)

   - FEAT_TLBIRANGE support to only invalidate specific ranges of
     addresses when collapsing a table PTE to a block PTE. This avoids
     that the guest refills the TLBs again for addresses that aren't
     covered by the table PTE.

   - Fix vPMU issues related to handling of PMUver.

   - Don't unnecessary align non-stack allocations in the EL2 VA space

   - Drop HCR_VIRT_EXCP_MASK, which was never used...

   - Don't use smp_processor_id() in kvm_arch_vcpu_load(), but the cpu
     parameter instead

   - Drop redundant call to kvm_set_pfn_accessed() in user_mem_abort()

   - Remove prototypes without implementations

  RISC-V:

   - Zba, Zbs, Zicntr, Zicsr, Zifencei, and Zihpm support for guest

   - Added ONE_REG interface for SATP mode

   - Added ONE_REG interface to enable/disable multiple ISA extensions

   - Improved error codes returned by ONE_REG interfaces

   - Added KVM_GET_REG_LIST ioctl() implementation for KVM RISC-V

   - Added get-reg-list selftest for KVM RISC-V

  s390:

   - PV crypto passthrough enablement (Tony, Steffen, Viktor, Janosch)

     Allows a PV guest to use crypto cards. Card access is governed by
     the firmware and once a crypto queue is "bound" to a PV VM every
     other entity (PV or not) looses access until it is not bound
     anymore. Enablement is done via flags when creating the PV VM.

   - Guest debug fixes (Ilya)

  x86:

   - Clean up KVM's handling of Intel architectural events

   - Intel bugfixes

   - Add support for SEV-ES DebugSwap, allowing SEV-ES guests to use
     debug registers and generate/handle #DBs

   - Clean up LBR virtualization code

   - Fix a bug where KVM fails to set the target pCPU during an IRTE
     update

   - Fix fatal bugs in SEV-ES intrahost migration

   - Fix a bug where the recent (architecturally correct) change to
     reinject #BP and skip INT3 broke SEV guests (can't decode INT3 to
     skip it)

   - Retry APIC map recalculation if a vCPU is added/enabled

   - Overhaul emergency reboot code to bring SVM up to par with VMX, tie
     the "emergency disabling" behavior to KVM actually being loaded,
     and move all of the logic within KVM

   - Fix user triggerable WARNs in SVM where KVM incorrectly assumes the
     TSC ratio MSR cannot diverge from the default when TSC scaling is
     disabled up related code

   - Add a framework to allow "caching" feature flags so that KVM can
     check if the guest can use a feature without needing to search
     guest CPUID

   - Rip out the ancient MMU_DEBUG crud and replace the useful bits with
     CONFIG_KVM_PROVE_MMU

   - Fix KVM's handling of !visible guest roots to avoid premature
     triple fault injection

   - Overhaul KVM's page-track APIs, and KVMGT's usage, to reduce the
     API surface that is needed by external users (currently only
     KVMGT), and fix a variety of issues in the process

  Generic:

   - Wrap kvm_{gfn,hva}_range.pte in a union to allow mmu_notifier
     events to pass action specific data without needing to constantly
     update the main handlers.

   - Drop unused function declarations

  Selftests:

   - Add testcases to x86's sync_regs_test for detecting KVM TOCTOU bugs

   - Add support for printf() in guest code and covert all guest asserts
     to use printf-based reporting

   - Clean up the PMU event filter test and add new testcases

   - Include x86 selftests in the KVM x86 MAINTAINERS entry"

KVM_GET_REG_LIST API will return all registers that are available to
KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG APIs. It's very useful to identify some platform
regression issue during VM migration.

Since this API was already supported on arm64, it is straightforward
to enable it on riscv with similar code structure.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM64:

   - Eager page splitting optimization for dirty logging, optionally
     allowing for a VM to avoid the cost of hugepage splitting in the
     stage-2 fault path.

   - Arm FF-A proxy for pKVM, allowing a pKVM host to safely interact
     with services that live in the Secure world. pKVM intervenes on
     FF-A calls to guarantee the host doesn't misuse memory donated to
     the hyp or a pKVM guest.

   - Support for running the split hypervisor with VHE enabled, known as
     'hVHE' mode. This is extremely useful for testing the split
     hypervisor on VHE-only systems, and paves the way for new use cases
     that depend on having two TTBRs available at EL2.

   - Generalized framework for configurable ID registers from userspace.
     KVM/arm64 currently prevents arbitrary CPU feature set
     configuration from userspace, but the intent is to relax this
     limitation and allow userspace to select a feature set consistent
     with the CPU.

   - Enable the use of Branch Target Identification (FEAT_BTI) in the
     hypervisor.

   - Use a separate set of pointer authentication keys for the
     hypervisor when running in protected mode, as the host is untrusted
     at runtime.

   - Ensure timer IRQs are consistently released in the init failure
     paths.

   - Avoid trapping CTR_EL0 on systems with Enhanced Virtualization
     Traps (FEAT_EVT), as it is a register commonly read from userspace.

   - Erratum workaround for the upcoming AmpereOne part, which has
     broken hardware A/D state management.

  RISC-V:

   - Redirect AMO load/store misaligned traps to KVM guest

   - Trap-n-emulate AIA in-kernel irqchip for KVM guest

   - Svnapot support for KVM Guest

  s390:

   - New uvdevice secret API

   - CMM selftest and fixes

   - fix racy access to target CPU for diag 9c

  x86:

   - Fix missing/incorrect #GP checks on ENCLS

   - Use standard mmu_notifier hooks for handling APIC access page

   - Drop now unnecessary TR/TSS load after VM-Exit on AMD

   - Print more descriptive information about the status of SEV and
     SEV-ES during module load

   - Add a test for splitting and reconstituting hugepages during and
     after dirty logging

   - Add support for CPU pinning in demand paging test

   - Add support for AMD PerfMonV2, with a variety of cleanups and minor
     fixes included along the way

   - Add a "nx_huge_pages=never" option to effectively avoid creating NX
     hugepage recovery threads (because nx_huge_pages=off can be toggled
     at runtime)

   - Move handling of PAT out of MTRR code and dedup SVM+VMX code

   - Fix output of PIC poll command emulation when there's an interrupt

   - Add a maintainer's handbook to document KVM x86 processes,
     preferred coding style, testing expectations, etc.

   - Misc cleanups, fixes and comments

  Generic:

   - Miscellaneous bugfixes and cleanups

  Selftests:

   - Generate dependency files so that partial rebuilds work as
     expected"
