Merge tag 'kvmarm-5.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvmarm/kvmarm into HEAD
KVM/arm64 updates for v5.14.
- Add MTE support in guests, complete with tag save/restore interface
- Reduce the impact of CMOs by moving them in the page-table code
- Allow device block mappings at stage-2
- Reduce the footprint of the vmemmap in protected mode
- Support the vGIC on dumb systems such as the Apple M1
- Add selftest infrastructure to support multiple configuration
and apply that to PMU/non-PMU setups
- Add selftests for the debug architecture
- The usual crop of PMU fixes
