KVM: arm64: gic-v5: Support GICv5 interrupts with KVM_IRQ_LINE

Browse Source 
Interrupts under GICv5 look quite different to those from older Arm
GICs. Specifically, the type is encoded in the top bits of the
interrupt ID.

Extend KVM_IRQ_LINE to cope with GICv5 PPIs and SPIs. The requires
subtly changing the KVM_IRQ_LINE API for GICv5 guests. For older Arm
GICs, PPIs had to be in the range of 16-31, and SPIs had to be
32-1019, but this no longer holds true for GICv5. Instead, for a GICv5
guest support PPIs in the range of 0-127, and SPIs in the range
0-65535. The documentation is updated accordingly.

The SPI range doesn't cover the full SPI range that a GICv5 system can
potentially cope with (GICv5 provides up to 24-bits of SPI ID space,
and we only have 16 bits to work with in KVM_IRQ_LINE). However, 65k
SPIs is more than would be reasonably expected on systems for years to
come.

In order to use vgic_is_v5(), the kvm/arm_vgic.h header is added to
kvm/arm.c.

Note: As the GICv5 KVM implementation currently doesn't support
injecting SPIs attempts to do so will fail. This restriction will by
lifted as the GICv5 KVM support evolves.
