Recent work on the KVM GIC emulation has revealed that the GICv3 driver is a bit RWP-happy, as it polls this bit for each and every write MMIO access involving a single interrupt. As it turns out, polling RWP is only required when: - Disabling an SGI, PPI or SPI - Disabling LPIs at the redistributor level - Disabling groups - Enabling ARE - Dealing with DPG* Simplify the driver by removing all the other instances of RWP polling, and add the one that was missing when enabling the distributor (as that's where we set ARE).

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.
