[PATCH 00/10] arm64: Add initial support for FEAT_WFxT

[Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>]

The ARMv8.7 WFxT feature is a new take on the good old WFI/WFE
instructions as they behave the same way, only taking an extra timeout
parameter.

This small series aims at adding the minimal support for this feature,
enabling it for both the kernel and KVM.

A potential addition to this series would be to remove the event
generation from the counters, and rely on the timeout where it
matters (spinlocks?). Feedback welcome.

Patches on top of 5.18-rc2, tested of the FVP AEM.

Marc Zyngier (10):
  arm64: Expand ESR_ELx_WFx_ISS_TI to match its ARMv8.7 definition
  arm64: Add RV and RN fields for ESR_ELx_WFx_ISS
  KVM: arm64: Simplify kvm_cpu_has_pending_timer()
  KVM: arm64: Introduce kvm_counter_compute_delta() helper
  KVM: arm64: Handle blocking WFIT instruction
  KVM: arm64: Offer early resume for non-blocking WFxT instructions
  KVM: arm64: Expose the WFXT feature to guests
  arm64: Add HWCAP advertising FEAT_WFXT
  arm64: Add wfet()/wfit() helpers
  arm64: Use WFxT for __delay() when possible
