Zenghui Yu 53ee75b86b KVM: arm64: vgic-v3: Drop the reporting of GICR_TYPER.Last for userspace 
commit 23bde34771 upstream.

It was recently reported that if GICR_TYPER is accessed before the RD base
address is set, we'll suffer from the unset @rdreg dereferencing. Oops...

	gpa_t last_rdist_typer = rdreg->base + GICR_TYPER +
			(rdreg->free_index - 1) * KVM_VGIC_V3_REDIST_SIZE;

It's "expected" that users will access registers in the redistributor if
the RD has been properly configured (e.g., the RD base address is set). But
it hasn't yet been covered by the existing documentation.

Per discussion on the list [1], the reporting of the GICR_TYPER.Last bit
for userspace never actually worked. And it's difficult for us to emulate
it correctly given that userspace has the flexibility to access it any
time. Let's just drop the reporting of the Last bit for userspace for now
(userspace should have full knowledge about it anyway) and it at least
prevents kernel from panic ;-)

README 

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
