[ Upstream commit 830dcc9f9a7cd26a812522a26efaacf7df6fc365 ] We expect all CPUs to be running at the same EL inside the kernel with or without VHE enabled and we have strict checks to ensure that any mismatch triggers a kernel panic. If VHE is enabled, we use the feature based on the boot CPU and all other CPUs should follow. This makes it a perfect candidate for a capability based on the boot CPU, which should be matched by all the CPUs (both when is ON and OFF). This saves us some not-so-pretty hooks and special code, just for verifying the conflict. The patch also makes the VHE capability entry depend on CONFIG_ARM64_VHE.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
