Before this change, the cache configuration of the physical CPU was exposed to vcpus. This is problematic because the cache configuration a vcpu sees varies when it migrates between vcpus with different cache configurations. Fabricate cache configuration from the sanitized value, which holds the CTR_EL0 value the userspace sees regardless of which physical CPU it resides on. CLIDR_EL1 and CCSIDR_EL1 are now writable from the userspace so that the VMM can restore the values saved with the old kernel.

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.
