The PSCI v1.3 spec (https://developer.arm.com/documentation/den0022) adds support for a SYSTEM_OFF2 function enabling a HIBERNATE_OFF state which is analogous to ACPI S4. This will allow hosting environments to determine that a guest is hibernated rather than just powered off, and ensure that they preserve the virtual environment appropriately to allow the guest to resume safely (or bump the hardware_signature in the FACS to trigger a clean reboot instead).
This updates KVM to support advertising PSCI v1.3, and unconditionally enables the SYSTEM_OFF2 support when PSCI v1.3 is enabled.
For the guest side, add a new SYS_OFF_MODE_POWER_OFF handler with higher priority than the EFI one, but which *only* triggers when there's a hibernation in progress. There are other ways to do this (see the commit message for more details) but this seemed like the simplest.
Version 2 of the patch series splits out the psci.h definitions into a separate commit (a dependency for both the guest and KVM side), and adds definitions for the other new functions added in v1.3. It also moves the pKVM psci-relay support to a separate commit; although in arch/arm64/kvm that's actually about the *guest* side of SYSTEM_OFF2 (i.e. using it from the host kernel, relayed through nVHE).
Version 3 dropped the KVM_CAP which allowed userspace to explicitly opt in to the new feature like with SYSTEM_SUSPEND, and makes it depend only on PSCI v1.3 being exposed to the guest.
Version 4 is no longer RFC, as the PSCI v1.3 spec is finally published. Minor fixes from the last round of review, and an added KVM self test.
Version 5 drops some of the changes which didn't make it to the final v1.3 spec, and cleans up a couple of places which still referred to it as 'alpha' or 'beta'. It also temporarily drops the guest-side patch to invoke SYSTEM_OFF2 for hibernation, pending confirmation that the final PSCI v1.3 spec just has a typo where it changed to saying that 0x1 should be passed to mean HIBERNATE_OFF, even though it's advertised as bit 0. That can be sent under separate cover, and perhaps should have been anyway. The change in question doesn't matter for any of the KVM patches, because we just treat SYSTEM_OFF2 like the existing SYSTEM_RESET2, setting a flag to indicate that it was a SYSTEM_OFF2 call, but not actually caring about the argument; that's for userspace to worry about.
