This short series converts RISC-V KVM AIA's Hypervisor Guest External
Interrupt (HGEI) line management from a global "one-size-fits-all"
model to a fully per-HART (per-CPU) model. It also performs the
corresponding cleanup in the IMSIC irqchip driver.
The motivation is to properly support heterogeneous RISC-V SoCs
(big.LITTLE, multi-vendor core mixes) where different HARTs may
expose different numbers of guest interrupt files / HGEIE bits.
The old global `kvm_riscv_aia_nr_hgei` and
`imsic_global_config::nr_guest_files` assumptions are no longer
tenable and are removed.
After this series, HGEI allocation, freeing, and interrupt delivery
are completely per-HART, the code is simpler and clearer, and there
are no remaining global assumptions about guest interrupt file
counts.

Previously the number of Hypervisor Guest External Interrupt (HGEI)
lines was stored in a single global variable `kvm_riscv_aia_nr_hgei`
and assumed to be the same for all HARTs. This assumption does not
hold on heterogeneous RISC-V SoCs where different cores may expose
different HGEIE CSR widths.
Introduce `nr_hgei` field into the per-CPU `struct aia_hgei_control`
and probe the actual supported HGEI count for the current HART in
`kvm_riscv_aia_enable()` using the standard RISC-V CSR probe
technique:
csr_write(CSR_HGEIE, -1UL);
nr = fls_long(csr_read(CSR_HGEIE));
if (nr)
nr--;
All HGEI allocation, free and disable paths (`kvm_riscv_aia_free_hgei()`,
`kvm_riscv_aia_disable()`, etc.) now use the per-CPU value instead of
the global one.
The early global `kvm_riscv_aia_nr_hgei` is kept only for deciding
whether SGEI interrupt registration is needed; the real per-HART
initialization of lock and free_bitmap is moved to enable time.
This makes KVM AIA robust on big.LITTLE-style and multi-vendor
asymmetric platforms.

Now that HGEI line management is fully per-CPU (via struct
aia_hgei_control::nr_hgei), the global `kvm_riscv_aia_nr_hgei`
is no longer needed. Replace it with a simple `bool
kvm_riscv_aia_hgei_enabled` that only indicates whether HGEI
support is available at all.

With the recent KVM AIA changes, HGEI line management is now fully
per-CPU (via struct aia_hgei_control::nr_hgei) and the global
kvm_riscv_aia_nr_hgei has been replaced by a simple enabled flag.
The IMSIC driver no longer needs to compute and enforce a global
minimum number of guest interrupt files across all HARTs.
Remove:
- `u32 nr_guest_files` from `struct imsic_global_config`
- the initial `BIT(global->guest_index_bits) - 1` assignment
- the entire per-CPU MMIO-based min() calculation and its comment
(which was specifically there to protect old KVM)
The per-HART guest file count is already handled locally in
`imsic_local_config` during the parent IRQ loop, so this global
field was redundant.
This completes the cleanup series, eliminates the last global
assumption about guest files, and improves support for heterogeneous
(big.LITTLE / multi-vendor) RISC-V platforms.

Hi all,
This patch simply removed `nr_guest_files`, which is suboptimal. For
v2, I will keep `nr_guest_files` inside `struct imsic_local_config`
(per-HART) and compute the effective HGEI count in
`kvm_riscv_aia_enable()` as:
min(hgctrl->nr_hgei, lc->nr_guest_files)
This provides a more accurate and robust per-HART configuration.
Here are the updated two patches for your review:
irqchip/riscv-imsic: Move nr_guest_files to per-HART local config
With the recent KVM AIA per-HART HGEI conversion, the global
nr_guest_files is no longer appropriate. Different HARTs in
heterogeneous SoCs may have different numbers of guest interrupt
files.
Move `nr_guest_files` from `struct imsic_global_config` to
`struct imsic_local_config`, and compute it per-CPU in
imsic_setup_state() based on the actual MMIO guest file region size.
Update the related comment to reflect that KVM now uses the
per-HART value.
This eliminates the last global assumption about guest files and
completes the per-HART conversion series for RISC-V AIA/IMSIC.

RISC-V: KVM: AIA: Use per-HART IMSIC guest files to compute final HGEI count
Now that `nr_guest_files` has been moved to `struct imsic_local_config`
and is computed per-HART, KVM must respect the actual number of guest
interrupt files available on each HART when setting up HGEI.
In `kvm_riscv_aia_enable()`:
- Retrieve the per-CPU IMSIC local config
- Take `min(hgctrl->nr_hgei, lc->nr_guest_files)` as the final usable
HGEI count for this HART
- Use the result to initialize `free_bitmap`
This ensures correct HGEI allocation on heterogeneous RISC-V SoCs
where different cores may have different IMSIC guest file counts, and
completes the per-HART conversion series.

Yes, I was going to comment the exact same thing. Good that you
