[RFC PATCH v1 0/2] KVM: arm64: Making BT Field in ID_AA64PFR1_EL1 writable

Hi guys,

I'm trying to enable migration from MtCollins(Ampere Altra, ARMv8.2+) to AmpereOne(AmpereOne, ARMv8.6+), the migration always fails when migration from MtCollins to AmpereOne due to some register fields differing between the two machines.

In this patch series, we try to make more register fields writable like ID_AA64PFR1_EL1.BT. This is first step towards making the migration possible. Some other hurdles need to be overcome. This is not sufficient to make the migration successful from MtCollins to AmpereOne.
