Subject: [PATCH v6 21/25] iommu/arm-smmu-v3-kvm: Emulate GBPA

From: Mostafa Saleh <[email-masked]>
Date: Fri, 1 May 2026 11:19:23 +0000

The last bit of emulation is GBPA. it must be always set to ABORT,
as when the SMMU is disabled it’s not allowed for the host to bypass
the SMMU.

That's is done by setting the GBPA to ABORT at init time, and host
writes are always ignored and host reads always return ABORT.
