When disabling LPIs, a guest needs to poll GICR_CTLR.RWP in order
to be sure that the write has taken effect. We so far reported it
as 0, as we didn't advertise that LPIs could be turned off the
first place.
Start tracking this state during which LPIs are being disabled,
and expose the 'in progress' state via the RWP bit.
We also take this opportunity to disallow enabling LPIs and programming
GICR_{PEND,PROP}BASER while LPI disabling is in progress, as allowed by
the architecture (UNPRED behaviour).
We don't advertise the feature to the guest yet (which is allowed by
the architecture).

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.
