I believe KVM for AArch64 was merged in 3.9, but it was a very early
version of the code, so I wouldn't recommend basing anything off that.

You could look at the backports for LSK 3.10
(https://git.linaro.org/?p=kernel/linux-linaro-stable.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-linaro-lsk-v3.10)
but I can't make any promises of the quality of that code.

Does the Tegra TX1 board you have even boot Linux in EL2 or haven an
open bootloader?  If not, I would expect this to be your biggest
troubles.
