I think the problem should be described the following way (feel free to
use this in a commit message).
When rebooting a VM, we currently don't have a way to reset the ITS.
This results in the booting a VM with a pre-programmed ITS with existing
cached state. This can lead to all sorts of interesting problems.
One such problem is that if trying to migrate the VM after rebooting the
VM, we try to traverse the device tables in guest memory. When using
indirect tables, and the guest has re-initialized the ITS device table
base register pointing to cleared memory, this results in trying to
access address 0 in the guest physical address space, which in turn
causes the ITS saving code to return an error to user space.
The correct fix is to introduce a reset function as a device attribute
for the ITS.
Hope this helps,
