 Hello!

 Yes, but still it actually shares 50% of the code with SW emulation. It reuses vGICv3 base class as
well as new machine.

 You know... I could rip parts of Shlomo's patches and use them as base for my series. But, does it
worth efforts? It will actually be a reposting of the same code over and over again...

 For this purpose you can talk to Peter i guess, because it was his decision. By the way, when does
freeze period end?
