Merge branch kvm-arm64/nv-nv into kvmarm-master/next
* kvm-arm64/nv-nv:
: .
: Flick the switch on the NV support by adding the missing piece
: in the form of the VNCR page management. From the cover letter:
:
: "This is probably the most interesting bit of the whole NV adventure.
: So far, everything else has been a walk in the park, but this one is
: where the real fun takes place.
:
: With FEAT_NV2, most of the NV support revolves around tricking a guest
: into accessing memory while it tries to access system registers. The
: hypervisor's job is to handle the context switch of the actual
: registers with the state in memory as needed."
