[PATCH 0/2] arm64: kexec/kdump fixes for v10

[AKASHI Takahiro]

These patches should be applied on top of Geoff's kexec/kdump patch[1],
v10, to fix some issues. I should have merged it before the submission
but I missed the timing. Sorry.

Please go ahead and review v10 since these patches don't change any
main logic of kexec/kdump. I will merge them in the next submission.

Patch 1 fixes a cpuidle issue reported by James[2].

Patch 2 allows kdump to start a crash kernel even with a kvm guest still
running. (I accidentally dropped this hack when rebasing my part.)

[PATCH 1/2] fixup! arm64: kdump: implement machine_crash_shutdown()

[AKASHI Takahiro]

Without this patch, crash dump kernel won't be able to boot if a kvm
guest is running at crash. This is because we don't have any chance
to reset EL2 mode at crash and so "switch to EL2" in cpu_reset fails.

[PATCH 2/2] fixup! arm64: kvm: allows kvm cpu hotplug

[AKASHI Takahiro]

Without this patch, kvm cannot start a guest when cpuidle is enabled
if the hardware does not retain cpu state (EL2) in idle state.

This patch re-initailizes EL2 state at CPU_PM_EXIT by calling
kvm_arch_hardware_enable() if and only if kvm has been initialized
before CPU_PM_ENTER, that is, if any vcpus have been created.

This solves my issue with the v5 version here [0].

Thanks!

I folded these fixes into my series as v10.1.
