In order to allow KVM to run on Thunder implementations, add the
minimal support required.

CCing the KVM/ARM maintainers should be the first course of action.

thanks.

Also, you may want to try Suzuki's patch instead:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg117703.html

will try with this.

Constantly adding new CPUs without providing any insight as to how they
should be emulated only brings churn, and not much benefit.

we are not planning(at this point) to emulate Thunder with QEMU/others.   

Fair enough. If cross-cpu VM migration is none of your concern, then
Suzuki's patch should be enough.

Thanks,
