This small series addresses a peculiarity of the current VGIC
implementation, namely that we don't support interrupt grouping.

KVM either implements a GICv2 without support for the security
extensions, or a GICv3 with DS=1.  For GICv2, on systems without the
security extensions, group 0 interrupts can be configured to be either
signalled as FIQs or as IRQs by the VM, whereas group 1 interrupts are
always IRQs.  For GICv3, with DS=1, group 1 interrupts are always IRQs
and group 0 interrupts are always FIQs, and there is no concept of
secure vs. non-secure group 1 interrupts when DS=1.

We were treating all interrupts on GICv2 as group 0, but yet telling the
geust that they were group 1.  The first patch changes this behavior,
which seems to have no effect on no known guests, but still.

The remaining patches introduce proper interrupt grouping support, along
with MMIO accessors for the VM and userspace to retrieve and set the
which group SGIs, PPIs, and SPIs belong to.  LPIs are always group 1
interrupts as per the architecture, and there is no way to modify this
configuration (no IGROUPR registers for LPIs or equivalent ITS
commands).

Lightly tested on Seattle, TX1, and the foundation model.  I've run a
GICv2 guest on a GICv3 host on the foundation model.

Applies to v4.18-rc1.
