[PATCH] KVM: ARM: enable Cortex A7 hosts

[PATCH] KVM: ARM: enable Cortex A7 hosts

[Ulrich Hecht]

KVM runs fine on Cortex A7 cores, so they should be enabled. Tested on an
APE6EVM board (r8a73a4 SoC).

Hi Ulrich,

I'm not entirely sure but it seems to me that you should expand the
CC list of this patch someohow as it doesn't seem to have got any
attention in the week since you sent it.

Adding kvmarm@lists.cs.columbia.edu will be a good start.
