KVM sets up MDCR_EL2 to trap accesses to the SPE buffer and sampling
control registers and it relies on the fact that KVM injects an undefined
exception for unknown registers. This mechanism of injecting undefined
exceptions also prints a warning message for the host kernel; for example,
when a guest tries to access PMSIDR_EL1:
[ 2.691830] kvm [142]: Unsupported guest sys_reg access at: 80009e78 [800003c5]
[ 2.691830] { Op0( 3), Op1( 0), CRn( 9), CRm( 9), Op2( 7), func_read },
This is unnecessary, because KVM has explicitly configured trapping of
those registers and is well aware of their existence. Prevent the warning
by adding the SPE registers to the list of registers that KVM emulates.
The access function will inject the undefined exception.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
