Zenghui Yu bca031e2c8 KVM: arm/arm64: Introduce kvm_pmu_vcpu_init() to setup PMU counter index
We use "pmc->idx" and the "chained" bitmap to determine if the pmc is
chained, in kvm_pmu_pmc_is_chained().  But idx might be uninitialized
(and random) when we doing this decision, through a KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT
ioctl -> kvm_pmu_vcpu_reset(). And the test_bit() against this random
idx will potentially hit a KASAN BUG [1].

In general, idx is the static property of a PMU counter that is not
expected to be modified across resets, as suggested by Julien.  It
looks more reasonable if we can setup the PMU counter idx for a vcpu
in its creation time. Introduce a new function - kvm_pmu_vcpu_init()
for this basic setup. Oh, and the KASAN BUG will get fixed this way.

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.

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.
