Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "RISCV:

   - Use common KVM implementation of MMU memory caches

   - SBI v0.2 support for Guest

   - Initial KVM selftests support

   - Fix to avoid spurious virtual interrupts after clearing hideleg CSR

   - Update email address for Anup and Atish

  ARM:

   - Simplification of the 'vcpu first run' by integrating it into KVM's
     'pid change' flow

   - Refactoring of the FP and SVE state tracking, also leading to a
     simpler state and less shared data between EL1 and EL2 in the nVHE
     case

   - Tidy up the header file usage for the nvhe hyp object

   - New HYP unsharing mechanism, finally allowing pages to be unmapped
     from the Stage-1 EL2 page-tables

   - Various pKVM cleanups around refcounting and sharing

   - A couple of vgic fixes for bugs that would trigger once the vcpu
     xarray rework is merged, but not sooner

   - Add minimal support for ARMv8.7's PMU extension

   - Rework kvm_pgtable initialisation ahead of the NV work

   - New selftest for IRQ injection

   - Teach selftests about the lack of default IPA space and page sizes

   - Expand sysreg selftest to deal with Pointer Authentication

   - The usual bunch of cleanups and doc update

  s390:

   - fix sigp sense/start/stop/inconsistency

   - cleanups

  x86:

   - Clean up some function prototypes more

   - improved gfn_to_pfn_cache with proper invalidation, used by Xen
     emulation

   - add KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_XEN_EVTCHN and event channel delivery

   - completely remove potential TOC/TOU races in nested SVM consistency
     checks

   - update some PMCs on emulated instructions

   - Intel AMX support (joint work between Thomas and Intel)

   - large MMU cleanups

   - module parameter to disable PMU virtualization

   - cleanup register cache

   - first part of halt handling cleanups

   - Hyper-V enlightened MSR bitmap support for nested hypervisors

  Generic:

   - clean up Makefiles

   - introduce CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_DIRTY_RING

   - optimize memslot lookup using a tree

   - optimize vCPU array usage by converting to xarray"

<content type='text'>
The vector length configuration for SME is very similar to that for SVE
so in order to allow reuse refactor the SVE configuration so that it takes
the vector type from the struct ctl_table. Since there's no dedicated space
for this we repurpose the extra1 field to store the vector type, this is
otherwise unused for integer sysctls.

The bit of documentation that talks about TIF_FOREIGN_FPSTATE
does not mention the ungodly tricks that KVM plays with this flag.

Try and document this for the posterity.

In configurations where SVE is disabled we define but never reference the
functions for retrieving the default vector length, causing warnings. Fix
this by move the ifdef up, marking get_default_vl() inline since it is
referenced from code guarded by an IS_ENABLED() check, and do the same for
the other accessors for consistency.

As for SVE we will track a per task SME vector length for tasks. Convert
the existing storage for the vector length into an array and update
fpsimd_flush_task() to initialise this in a function.

<title>arm64/sve: Explicitly load vector length when restoring SVE state</title>

Currently when restoring the SVE state we supply the SVE vector length
as an argument to sve_load_state() and the underlying macros. This becomes
inconvenient with the addition of SME since we may need to restore any
combination of SVE and SME vector lengths, and we already separately
restore the vector length in the KVM code. We don't need to know the vector
length during the actual register load since the SME load instructions can
index into the data array for us.

Refactor the interface so we explicitly set the vector length separately
to restoring the SVE registers in preparation for adding SME support, no
functional change should be involved.

<title>arm64/sve: Put system wide vector length information into structs</title>

With the introduction of SME we will have a second vector length in the
system, enumerated and configured in a very similar fashion to the
existing SVE vector length.  While there are a few differences in how
things are handled this is a relatively small portion of the overall
code so in order to avoid code duplication we factor out

We create two structs, one vl_info for the static hardware properties
and one vl_config for the runtime configuration, with an array
instantiated for each and update all the users to reference these. Some
accessor functions are provided where helpful for readability, and the
write to set the vector length is put into a function since the system
register being updated needs to be chosen at compile time.

This is a mostly mechanical replacement, further work will be required
to actually make things generic, ensuring that we handle those places
where there are differences properly.
