KVM always overrides all the EL2 trap controls while running a guest, right? We don't want this bit still set when running in a guest just because KVM doesn't know about POE yet. (Hopefully this follows naturally from the way the KVM code works, but my KVM-fu is a bit rusty.) Also, what about POR_EL1? Do we have to reset that to something sane (and so untrap it here), or it is sufficient if we never turn on POE support in the host, via TCR2_EL1.POE? [...] Cheers ---Dave
