Hi. Changes to linux-headers need to be done as a patch of their
own created using scripts/update-linux-headers.sh run against a
mainline kernel tree (and with a commit message that quotes the
kernel commit hash used). This ensures that we have a consistent
set of headers that don't diverge from the kernel copy.

Missing space after '/*' ?

Shouldn't we need to also tell the kernel that we actually want
it to expose RAS to the guest? Compare the PMU code in this
function, where we set a kvm_init_features bit to do this.
(This suggests that your ABI for the kernel part of this feature
may not be correct?)

You should also not be calling set_feature() here -- if the
CPU features bit doesn't say "this CPU should have the RAS
extensions" we shouldn't create a CPU with them. Instead
you should set it in kvm_arm_get_host_cpu_features() (again,
compare the PMU code).

thanks
