From: Zenghui Yu <zenghui...@linux.dev>

KVM's userspace access interface to the GICD enable and active bits
is via set/clear register pairs which implement the hardware's "write
1s to the clear register to clear the 0 bits, and write 1s to the set
register to set the 1 bits" semantics.  We didn't get this right,
because we were writing 0 to the clear register.

Writing 0 to GICD_IC{ENABLE,ACTIVE}R architecturally has no effect on
interrupt status (all writes are simply ignored by KVM) and doesn't
comply with the intention of "first write to the clear-reg to clear
all bits".

Write all 1's to actually clear the enable/active status.

This didn't have any adverse effects on migration because there
we start with a clean VM state; it would be guest-visible when
doing a system reset, but since Linux always cleans up the
register state of the GIC during bootup before it enables it
most users won't have run into a problem here.
