Although we emit a "SANITY CHECK" warning and taint the kernel if we

Introduce a capability for AArch32 support at EL1 so that late onlining
of incompatible CPUs is forbidden.

One of the other important missing sanity check for KVM is the VMID width
check. I will code something up.
Cheers! Do we handle things like the IPA size already?
Good point. No, we don't. I will include this too.
There is also the question of the ARMv8.5-GTG extension. I have a patch
that treats it as non-strict, but that approach would fail with KVM if
we online a late CPU without support for the right page size at S2.
Good point. Again this can be added to the list of checks performed on
the hot-plugged CPUs along with IPA, VMID width.
Cheers
