[RFC PATCH v2 4/4] KVM: arm64: GICv4.1: Give a chance to save VLPI's pending state

From: Shenming Lu <hidden>
Date: 2021-01-04 08:17:58
Also in: kvm, kvmarm, lkml
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), documentation, kernel virtual machine (kvm), kernel virtual machine for arm64 (kvm/arm64), the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Jonathan Corbet, Paolo Bonzini, Marc Zyngier, Oliver Upton, Linus Torvalds

Before GICv4.1, we do not have direct access to the VLPI's pending
state. So we simply let it fail early when encountering any VLPI.

But now we don't have to return -EACCES directly if on GICv4.1. So
let’s change the hard code and give a chance to save the VLPI's pending
state (and preserve the UAPI).
