Deactivation via ICV_DIR_EL1 is both relatively straightforward (we have the interrupt that needs deactivation) and really awkward. The main issue is that the interrupt may either be in an LR on another CPU, or ourside of any LR. In the former case, we process the deactivation is if ot was a write to GICD_CACTIVERn, which is already implemented as a big hammer IPI'ing all vcpus. In the latter case, we just perform a normal deactivation, similar to what we do for EOImode==0. Another annoying aspect is that we need to tell the CPU owning the interrupt that its ap_list needs laudering. We use a brand new vcpu request to that effect. Note that this doesn't address deactivation via the GICV MMIO view, which will be taken care of in a later change.

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 reStructuredText 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.
