Hi,

after fixing the VM_BUG_ON, my QEMU guest on the Jetson TK1 generally
refuses to boot. Once in a while it does, but quickly gets stuck again.
In one case I found this in the kernel log (never happened again so
far):

[  762.022874] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 972 at ../arch/arm/kvm/../../../virt/kvm/arm/vgic.c:1468 kvm_vgic_sync_hwstate+0x314/0x344()

BTW, KVM tracing support on ARM seems like it requires some care. E.g.:
kvm_exit does not report an exit reason. The in-kernel vgic also seems
to lack instrumentation. Unfortunate. Tracing is usually the first stop
when KVM is stuck on a guest.
