I would like to complete the rework and respin v4, but this is, i guess, the only major issue left. Additionally, it impacts the API. So... In order to allow 32-bit accesses we would have to drop using ARM64_SYS_REG() for building attribute ID and introduce something own, like KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_REG(). It will have different bits layout (actually it will be missing 'arch' and 'size' field, and instead i will use KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_64BIT flag for length specification, the same as for redistributor. Will this be OK ?
