Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] Improve instruction and CSR emulation in KVM RISC-V

Currently, the instruction emulation for MMIO traps and Virtual instruction
traps co-exist with general VCPU exit handling. The instruction and CSR
emulation will grow with upcoming SBI PMU, AIA, and Nested virtualization
in KVM RISC-V. In addition, we also need a mechanism to allow user-space
emulate certain CSRs under certain situation (example, host has AIA support
but user-space does not wants to use in-kernel AIA IMSIC and APLIC support).

This series improves instruction and CSR emulation in KVM RISC-V to make
it extensible based on above.

These patches can also be found in riscv_kvm_csr_v2 branch at:
https://github.com/avpatel/linux.git

Changes since v1:
 - Added a switch-case in PATCH3 to process MMIO, CSR, and SBI returned
   from user-space
 - Removed hard-coding in PATCH3 for determining type of CSR instruction

Anup Patel (3):
  RISC-V: KVM: Factor-out instruction emulation into separate sources
  RISC-V: KVM: Add extensible system instruction emulation framework
  RISC-V: KVM: Add extensible CSR emulation framework
