KVM: arm/arm64: vgic-new: Add userland access to VGIC dist registers
Userland may want to save and restore the state of the in-kernel VGIC, so we provide the code which takes a userland request and translate that into calls to our MMIO framework. From Christoffer: When accessing the VGIC state from userspace we really don't want a VCPU to be messing with the state at the same time, and the API specifies that we should return -EBUSY if any VCPUs are running. Check and prevent VCPUs from running by grabbing their mutexes, one by one, and error out if we fail. (Note: This could potentially be simplified to just do a simple check and see if any VCPUs are running, and return -EBUSY then, without enforcing the locking throughout the duration of the uaccess, if we think that taking/releasing all these mutexes for every single GIC register access is too heavyweight.)
