[PATCH v8 2/5] KVM: introduce kvm_arch_intc_initialized and use it in irqfd

[Eric Auger]

Introduce __KVM_HAVE_ARCH_INTC_INITIALIZED define and
associated kvm_arch_intc_initialized function. This latter
allows to test whether the virtual interrupt controller is initialized
and ready to accept virtual IRQ injection. On some architectures,
the virtual interrupt controller is dynamically instantiated, justifying
that kind of check.

The new function can now be used by irqfd to check whether the
virtual interrupt controller is ready on KVM_IRQFD request. If not,
KVM_IRQFD returns -EAGAIN.

v7 -> v8:
- correct typo in comment
- add Andre's Reviewed-by

v6 -> v7:
- From now on, kvm_irqfd_assign calls kvm_arch_intc_initialized
  (previously introduced in subsequent patch file).
- add Christoffer's ack

v5 -> v6:
- rename function name and macro
- add kvm_arch_intc_initialized declaration in case the archi defines
  the macro
