check if kvm supports guest RAS EXTENSION. if so, set
corresponding feature bit for vcpu.

Hi. Changes to linux-headers need to be done as a patch of their
own created using scripts/update-linux-headers.sh run against a
mainline kernel tree (and with a commit message that quotes the
kernel commit hash used). This ensures that we have a consistent
set of headers that don't diverge from the kernel copy.

Shouldn't we need to also tell the kernel that we actually want
it to expose RAS to the guest? Compare the PMU code in this
function, where we set a kvm_init_features bit to do this.
(This suggests that your ABI for the kernel part of this feature
may not be correct?)

You should also not be calling set_feature() here -- if the
CPU features bit doesn't say "this CPU should have the RAS
extensions" we shouldn't create a CPU with them. Instead
you should set it in kvm_arm_get_host_cpu_features() (again,
compare the PMU code).

thanks
