So this patch seems to break 32bit guests on arm64. I've had a look,
squashed a few bugs that I dangerously overlooked during the review, but
it still doesn't work (it doesn't crash anymore, but I get random
illegal VFP instructions in 32bit guests).
I'd be glad if someone could eyeball the following patch and tell me
what's going wrong. If we don't find the root cause quickly enough, I'll
have to drop the series from -next, and that'd be a real shame.
Thanks,
M.

KVM: arm64: NOTAFIX: Prevent crash when 32bit guest uses VFP
Since we switch FPSIMD in a lazy way, access to FPEXC32_EL2
must be guarded by skip_fpsimd_state. Otherwise, all hell
break loose.
Also, FPEXC32_EL2 must be restored when we trap to EL2 to
enable floating point.
Note that while it prevents the host from catching fire, the
guest still doesn't work properly, and I don't understand why just
yet.
