Marc Zyngier cf763e4ede ARM: Expose the VA/IDMAP offset
The KVM code needs to be able to compute the address of
symbols in its idmap page (the equivalent of a virt_to_idmap()
call). Unfortunately, virt_to_idmap is slightly complicated,
depending on the use of arch_phys_to_idmap_offset or not, and
none of that is readily available at HYP.

Instead, expose a single kimage_voffset variable which contains the
offset between a kernel VA and its idmap address, enabling the
VA->IDMAP conversion. This allows the KVM code to behave similarily
to its arm64 counterpart.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
