[PATCH v2 0/2] arm: add kvm-psci-version vcpu property

[Sebastian Ott]

This series adds a vcpu knob to request a specific PSCI version
from KVM via the KVM_REG_ARM_PSCI_VERSION FW register.

The use case for this is to support migration between host kernels
that differ in their default (a.k.a. most recent) PSCI version.

Note: in order to support PSCI v0.1 we need to drop vcpu
initialization with KVM_CAP_ARM_PSCI_0_2 in that case.
Alternatively we could limit support to versions >=0.2 .

Changes since V1 [1]:
* incorporated feedback from Peter and Eric

[PATCH v2 2/2] target/arm/kvm: add kvm-psci-version vcpu property

[Sebastian Ott]

Provide a kvm specific vcpu property to override the default
(as of kernel v6.13 that would be PSCI v1.3) PSCI version emulated
by kvm. Current valid values are: 0.1, 0.2, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3
