From: Pavel Fedin <p.fedin@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Correct some old mistakes in the API documentation:
1. VCPU is identified by index (using kvm_get_vcpu() function), but
"cpu id" can be mistaken for affinity ID.
2. Some error codes are wrong.
[ Slightly tweaked some grammer and did some s/CPU index/vcpu_index/
in the descriptions. -Christoffer ]

The attr field of kvm_device_attr encodes two values:

The offset is relative to the "Distributor base address" as defined in the
GICv2 specs. Getting or setting such a register has the same effect as
- reading or writing the register on the actual hardware from the cpu
- specified with cpu id field. Note that most distributor fields are not
