From: Eric Auger <eric.auger@xxxxxxxxxx>
We introduce a new KVM_VGIC_V3_ADDR_TYPE_REDIST_REGION attribute in
KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_ADDR group. It allows userspace to provide the
base address and size of a redistributor region
Compared to KVM_VGIC_V3_ADDR_TYPE_REDIST, this new attribute allows
to declare several separate redistributor regions.
So the whole redist space does not need to be contiguous anymore.

+ KVM_VGIC_V3_ADDR_TYPE_REDIST_REGION (rw, 64-bit)
+ The attribute data pointed to by kvm_device_attr.addr is a __u64 value:
+ bits: | 63 .... 52 | 51 .... 16 | 15 - 12 |11 - 0
+ values: | count | base | flags | index
+ - index encodes the unique redistributor region index
+ - flags: reserved for future use, currently 0
+ - base field encodes bits [51:16] of the guest physical base address
+ of the first redistributor in the region.
+ - count encodes the number of redistributors in the region. Must be
+ greater than 0.
+ There are two 64K pages for each redistributor in the region and
+ redistributors are laid out contiguously within the region. Regions
+ are filled with redistributors in the index order. The sum of all
+ region count fields must be greater than or equal to the number of
+ VCPUs. Redistributor regions must be registered in the incremental
+ index order, starting from index 0.
+ The characteristics of a specific redistributor region can be read
+ by presetting the index field in the attr data.
