In order to detect whether a GICv3 CPU interface is MMIO capable,
we switch ICC_SRE_EL1.SRE to 0 and check whether it sticks.
However, this is only possible if *ALL* of the HCR_EL2 interrupt
overrides are set, and the CPU is perfectly allowed to ignore
the write to ICC_SRE_EL1 otherwise. This leads KVM to pretend
that a whole bunch of ARMv8.0 CPUs aren't MMIO-capable, and
breaks VMs that should work correctly otherwise.
Fix this by setting IMO/FMO/IMO before touching ICC_SRE_EL1,
and clear them afterwards. This allows us to reliably detect
the CPU interface capabilities.

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.
