Until now, we always let ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.GIC reflect the value visible on the host, even if we were running a GICv2-enabled VM on a GICv3+compat host. That's fine, but we also now have the case of a host that does not expose ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.GIC==1 despite having a vGIC. Yes, this is confusing. Thank you M1. Let's go back to first principles and expose ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.GIC=1 when a GICv3 is exposed to the guest. This also hides a GICv4.1 CPU interface from the guest which has no business knowing about the v4.1 extension.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
