This is my fault, in Linux v5.4 KVM for arm is still around, and there's no
prototype for the function when compiling for arm. I suspect that's also the case
for v4.19.

I made this change to get it to build:

$ git diff
diff --git a/arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_host.h b/arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_host.h
index dd03d5e01a94..32564b017ba0 100644
--- a/arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_host.h
+++ b/arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_host.h
@@ -335,6 +335,7 @@ static inline void kvm_arch_sched_in(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu,
int cpu) {}
 static inline void kvm_arch_vcpu_block_finish(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu) {}
 
 static inline void kvm_arm_init_debug(void) {}
+static inline void kvm_arm_vcpu_init_debug(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu) {}
 static inline void kvm_arm_setup_debug(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu) {}
 static inline void kvm_arm_clear_debug(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu) {}
 static inline void kvm_arm_reset_debug_ptr(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu) {}

which matches the stub for kvm_arm_init_debug(). I can spin a patch out of it and
send it for 5.4 and 4.19. Marc, what do you think?

Thanks,

Alex
