[PATCH v18 16/18] RISC-V: KVM: Document RISC-V specific parts of KVM API

From: Anup Patel
Date: Tue May 18 2021 - 23:38:15 EST


Document RISC-V specific parts of the KVM API, such as:
- The interrupt numbers passed to the KVM_INTERRUPT ioctl.
- The states supported by the KVM_{GET,SET}_MP_STATE ioctls.
- The registers supported by the KVM_{GET,SET}_ONE_REG interface
and the encoding of those register ids.
- The exit reason KVM_EXIT_RISCV_SBI for SBI calls forwarded to
userspace tool.
