    KVM: arm/arm64: Drop resource size check for GICV window · ba56bc3a
    Ard Biesheuvel authored
    When booting a 64 KB pages kernel on a ACPI GICv3 system that
    implements support for v2 emulation, the following warning is
    produced
    
      GICV size 0x2000 not a multiple of page size 0x10000
    
    and support for v2 emulation is disabled, preventing GICv2 VMs
    from being able to run on such hosts.
    
    The reason is that vgic_v3_probe() performs a sanity check on the
    size of the window (it should be a multiple of the page size),
    while the ACPI MADT parsing code hardcodes the size of the window
    to 8 KB. This makes sense, considering that ACPI does not bother
    to describe the size in the first place, under the assumption that
    platforms implementing ACPI will follow the architecture and not
    put anything else in the same 64 KB window.
    
    So let's just drop the sanity check altogether, and assume that
    the window is at least 64 KB in size.
