At the moment, the in-kernel emulated ITS is not properly reset.
On guest restart/reset some registers keep their old values and
internal structures like device, ITE, and collection lists are not
freed.
This may lead to various bugs. Among them, we can have incorrect state
backup or failure when saving the ITS state at early guest boot stage.
This patch documents a new attribute, KVM_DEV_ARM_ITS_CTRL_RESET in
the KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_CTRL group.
Upon this action, we can reset registers and especially those
pointing to tables previously allocated by the guest and free
the internal data structures storing the list of devices, collections
and lpis.
The usual approach for device reset of having userspace write
the reset values of the registers to the kernel via the register
read/write APIs doesn't work for the ITS because it has some
internal state (caches) which is not exposed as registers,
and there is no register interface for "drop cached data without
writing it back to RAM". So we need a KVM API which mimics the
hardware's reset line, to provide the equivalent behaviour to
a "pull the power cord out of the back of the machine" reset.
