[PATCH v6 10/15] KVM: arm64: connect LPIs to the VGIC emulation

LPIs are dynamically created (mapped) at guest runtime and their
actual number can be quite high, but is mostly assigned using a very
sparse allocation scheme. So arrays are not an ideal data structure
to hold the information.
We use an RCU protected list to hold all mapped LPIs. vgic_its_get_lpi()
iterates the list using RCU list primitives, so it's safe to be called
from an non-preemptible context like the KVM exit/entry path.
Also we store a pointer to that struct vgic_irq in our struct its_itte,
so we can easily access it.
Eventually we call our new vgic_its_get_lpi() from vgic_get_irq(), so
the VGIC code gets transparently access to LPIs.

I'm skipping the review of this particular patch until you've switched
to the kref API.

Thanks,
