This series adds supports to the kernel and KVM hyp to handle systems without FP/ASIMD properly. At the moment the kernel doesn't check if the FP unit is available before accessing the registers (e.g during context switch). Also for KVM, we trap the FP/ASIMD accesses and handle it by injecting an undefined instruction into the VM on systems without FP.
Tested on a FVP_Base-AEM-v8A model by disabling VFP on at least one CPU ( -C clusterX.cpuY.vfp-present=0 ).
Applies on aarch64 : for-next/core
