This commit, which is in today's -next as 5c6c7b71a45c9c, breaks the
build on arm64:

aarch64/psci_test.c: In function ‘host_test_system_off2’:
aarch64/psci_test.c:247:9: error: too many arguments to function ‘vcpu_get_reg’
  247 |         vcpu_get_reg(target, KVM_REG_ARM_PSCI_VERSION, &psci_version);
      |         ^~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from aarch64/psci_test.c:18:
include/kvm_util.h:705:24: note: declared here
  705 | static inline uint64_t vcpu_get_reg(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu, uint64_t id)
      |                        ^~~~~~~~~~~~
At top level:
cc1: note: unrecognized command-line option ‘-Wno-gnu-variable-sized-type-not-at
-end’ may have been intended to silence earlier diagnostics

since the updates done to that file did not take account of 72be5aa6be4
("KVM: selftests: Add test for PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2") which has been merged
in the kvm-arm64 tree.
