Currently, the in-kernel PSCI emulation provides PSCI v0.1 interface to
VCPUs. This patch extends current in-kernel PSCI emulation to provide
PSCI v0.2 interface to VCPUs.

By default, ARM/ARM64 KVM will always provide PSCI v0.1 interface for
keeping the ABI backward-compatible.

To select PSCI v0.2 interface for VCPUs, the user space (i.e. QEMU or
KVMTOOL) will have to set KVM_ARM_VCPU_PSCI_0_2 feature when doing VCPU
init using KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT ioctl.

The content here can carry my Reviewed-by tag, but I think Rob's point
about sharing this code between KVM arm/arm64 and the PSCI code itself
it important, see:
