Hardware debugging in guests is not intercepted currently, it means
that a malicious guest can bring down the entire machine by writing
to the debug registers.
This patch enable trapping of all debug registers, preventing the
guests to access the debug registers. This includes access to the
debug mode(DBGDSCR) in the guest world all the time which could
otherwise mess with the host state. Reads return 0 and writes are
ignored (RAZ_WI).
The result is the guest cannot detect any working hardware based debug
support. As debug exceptions are still routed to the guest normal
debug using software based breakpoints still works.
To support debugging using hardware registers we need to implement a
debug register aware world switch as well as special trapping for
registers that may affect the host state.

The following three ioctls are implemented:
- KVM_GET_REG_LIST
- KVM_GET_ONE_REG
- KVM_SET_ONE_REG
Now we have a table for all the cp15 registers, we can drive a generic
API.
The register IDs carry the following encoding:
ARM registers are mapped using the lower 32 bits. The upper 16 of that
is the register group type, or coprocessor number:
ARM 32-bit CP15 registers have the following id bit patterns:
0x4002 0000 000F <zero:1> <crn:4> <crm:4> <opc1:4> <opc2:3>
ARM 64-bit CP15 registers have the following id bit patterns:
0x4003 0000 000F <zero:1> <zero:4> <crm:4> <opc1:4> <zero:3>
For futureproofing, we need to tell QEMU about the CP15 registers the
host lets the guest access.
It will need this information to restore a current guest on a future
CPU or perhaps a future KVM which allow some of these to be changed.
We use a separate table for these, as they're only for the userspace API.

Adds a new important function in the main KVM/ARM code called
handle_exit() which is called from kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run() on returns
from guest execution. This function examines the Hyp-Syndrome-Register
(HSR), which contains information telling KVM what caused the exit from
the guest.
Some of the reasons for an exit are CP15 accesses, which are
not allowed from the guest and this commit handles these exits by
emulating the intended operation in software and skipping the guest
instruction.
Minor notes about the coproc register reset:
1) We reserve a value of 0 as an invalid cp15 offset, to catch bugs in our
table, at cost of 4 bytes per vcpu.
2) Added comments on the table indicating how we handle each register, for
simplicity of understanding.

Targets KVM support for Cortex A-15 processors.
Contains all the framework components, make files, header files, some
tracing functionality, and basic user space API.
Only supported core is Cortex-A15 for now.
Most functionality is in arch/arm/kvm/* or arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_*.h.
