[RFC 00/12] KVM: arm/arm64: Allow multiple GICv3 redistributor regions

[Eric Auger]

At the moment the KVM VGICv3 only supports a single redistributor
region (whose base address is set through the GICv3 kvm device
KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_ADDR/KVM_VGIC_V3_ADDR_TYPE_REDIST). There,
all the redistributors are laid out contiguously. The size of this
single redistributor region is not set explicitly but instead
induced at a late stage by the number of online vcpus.

The GIC specification does not mandate all redistributors to be
contiguous. Moreover DT and ACPI were specified so that multiple
redistributors regions can be defined.

The current interface brings a limitation on QEMU where ARM
virt machine available GPA holes only allowed to assign a
redistributor region fitting a max of 123 vcpus. Overcoming this
limitation would force either to create a new machine or relocate
the single rdist region or allow the allocation of multiple rdist
regions.

This series enables this last alternative. A new GICv3 KVM device
KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_ADDR/KVM_VGIC_V3_ADDR_TYPE_REDIST_REGION allows
to register individual redistributor regions whose size is defined
explicitly. Those rdist regions then are filled by vcpu rdist frames
according to the need. The vgic init and related base address checks
are impacted.

Best Regards

Eric

* Testing:
- With QEMU, splitting the single rdist region into 2 seperate ones.
- Work in progress to allow clean support of more than 123 vcpus.
