Re: [RFC PATCH v2 13/26] KVM: arm64: Enable access to sanitized CPU features at EL2

Hi Quentin,

Introduce the infrastructure in KVM enabling to copy CPU feature
registers into EL2-owned data-structures, to allow reading sanitised
values directly at EL2 in nVHE.

Given that only a subset of these features are being read by the
hypervisor, the ones that need to be copied are to be listed under
<asm/kvm_cpufeature.h> together with the name of the nVHE variable that
will hold the copy.

While at it, introduce the first user of this infrastructure by
implementing __flush_dcache_area at EL2, which needs
arm64_ftr_reg_ctrel0.

Just to keep things together, please move any sysreg manipulation into

Thanks,
