Will Deacon 34739fd95f KVM: arm64: Indicate SYSTEM_RESET2 in kvm_run::system_event flags field
When handling reset and power-off PSCI calls from the guest, we
initialise X0 to PSCI_RET_INTERNAL_FAILURE in case the VMM tries to
re-run the vCPU after issuing the call.

Unfortunately, this also means that the VMM cannot see which PSCI call
was issued and therefore cannot distinguish between PSCI SYSTEM_RESET
and SYSTEM_RESET2 calls, which is necessary in order to determine the
validity of the "reset_type" in X1.

Allocate bit 0 of the previously unused 'flags' field of the
system_event structure so that we can indicate the PSCI call used to
initiate the reset.
