Akihiko Odaki f2aeb7bbd5 KVM: arm64: PMU: Set raw values from user to PM{C,I}NTEN{SET,CLR}, PMOVS{SET,CLR} 
Commit a45f41d754 ("KVM: arm64: Add {get,set}_user for
PM{C,I}NTEN{SET,CLR}, PMOVS{SET,CLR}") changed KVM_SET_ONE_REG to update
the mentioned registers in a way matching with the behavior of guest
register writes. This is a breaking change of a UAPI though the new
semantics looks cleaner and VMMs are not prepared for this.

Firecracker, QEMU, and crosvm perform migration by listing registers
with KVM_GET_REG_LIST, getting their values with KVM_GET_ONE_REG and
setting them with KVM_SET_ONE_REG. This algorithm assumes
KVM_SET_ONE_REG restores the values retrieved with KVM_GET_ONE_REG
without any alteration. However, bit operations added by the earlier
commit do not preserve the values retried with KVM_GET_ONE_REG and
potentially break migration.

Remove the bit operations that alter the values retrieved with
KVM_GET_ONE_REG.

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 reStructuredText 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.
