ARM: Dummy Virtual Machine platform support
Add support for the smallest, dumbest possible platform, to be used as a guest for KVM or other hypervisors. It only mandates a GIC and architected timers. Fits nicely with a multiplatform zImage. Uses very little silicon area. Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Acked-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com> [will: fixed up conflicts with GIC move to drivers/irqchip/] Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
