[PATCH v2 2/4] KVM: arm/arm64: vgic: add init entry to VGIC KVM device

From: Eric Auger
Date: Thu Dec 04 2014 - 04:50:00 EST


Since the advent of dynamic initialization of VGIC, this latter is
initialized very late, on the first vcpu run. This initialization
could be initiated much earlier by the user, as soon as it has
provided the requested dimensioning parameters:
- number of IRQs and number of vCPUs,
- DIST and CPU interface base address.

This patch adds a new entry to the VGIC KVM device that allows
the user to manually request the VGIC init:
- a new KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_CTRL group is introduced.
- Its first attribute is KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_CTRL_INIT

The rationale behind introducing a group is to be able to add other
controls later on, if needed.

Obviously, as soon as the init is done, the dimensioning parameters
cannot be changed.
