Since GICv4.1, it has become legal for an implementation to advertise
GICR_{INVLPIR,INVALLR,SYNCR} while having an ITS, allowing for a more
efficient invalidation scheme (no guest command queue contention when
multiple CPUs are generating invalidations).
Provide the invalidation registers as a primitive to their ITS
counterpart. Note that we don't advertise them to the guest yet
(the architecture allows an implementation to do this).

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 Restructured Text 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.
