The architected timer integration with the VGIC had some shortcomings in
that certain guest operations weren't fully supported.

This series tries to address these problems in providing level-triggered
semantics for the arch timer and VGIC integration and seeks to clarify
the behavior when setting/clearing the active state on the physical
distributor.

It also fixes a few other bugs in the VGIC code and finally adds support
for edge-triggered forwarded interrupts.

The edge-triggered forwarded interrupts code is untested but probably
better to clearly do something wrong and raise a warning.

Changes since v2:
 - Various spelling and comment fixes
 - Clarified timer example in Documentation and fixed EOIMode=1 explanation
 - Added spin lock around process_queued_irq as pointed out by Andre.

Changes since v1:
 - Sent out bug fixes for active state and UEFI reset as separate
   patches.
 - Fixed various spelling nits
 - Rewrote proposed documentation file trying to address Eric's and
   Marc's comments
 - Rewrote kvm_timer_update_irq and kvm_timer_update_state according to
   Marc's suggestion (thanks!)
 - Added additional patch to support edge-triggered forwarded
   interrupts.

  arm/arm64: KVM: Use appropriate define in VGIC reset code
  arm/arm64: KVM: Add forwarded physical interrupts documentation
