[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 6/7] target-arm: Reinitialize all KVM VCPU registers on reset

[Peter Maydell]

Since the ARM KVM API doesn't include a "reset this VCPU"
ioctl, we have to capture the initial values of every
register it knows about so that we can reset the VCPU
by feeding those values back again.
