KVM: arm64: Delay the polling of the GICR_VPENDBASER.Dirty bit
In order to reduce the impact of the VPT parsing happening on the GIC, we can split the vcpu reseidency in two phases: - programming GICR_VPENDBASER: this still happens in vcpu_load() - checking for the VPT parsing to be complete: this can happen on vcpu entry (in kvm_vgic_flush_hwstate()) This allows the GIC and the CPU to work in parallel, rewmoving some of the entry overhead.
