Subject: [PATCH v10 51/59] KVM: arm64: nv: Sync nested timer state with FEAT_NV2

From: Marc Zyngier <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 15 May 2023 18:30:55 +0100

From: Christoffer Dall <[email-masked]>

Emulating the timers with FEAT_NV2 is a bit odd, as the timers
can be reconfigured behind our back without the hypervisor even
noticing. In the VHE case, that's an actual regression in the
architecture...
