Yifan Liu fa6b55db68 hv: tee: Handling x86_tee secure interrupts corner cases
Previous upstreamed patches handles the secure/non-secure interrupts in
handle_x86_tee_int. However there is a corner case in which there might
be unhandled secure interrupts (in a very short time window) when TEE
yields vCPU. For this case we always make sure that no secure interrupts
are pending in TEE's vlapic before scheduling REE.

Also in previous patches, if non-secure interrupt comes when TEE is
handling its secure interrupts, hypervisor injects a predefined vector
into TEE's vlapic. TEE does not consume this vector in secure interrupt
handling routine so it stays in vIRR, but it should be cleared because the
actual interrupt will be consumed in REE after VM Entry.

v3:
    Fix comments on interrupt priority

v2:
    Add comments explaining the priority of secure/non-secure interrupts

ACRN Hypervisor
###############

The open source `Project ACRN`_ defines a device hypervisor reference stack and
an architecture for running multiple software subsystems, managed securely, on
a consolidated system by means of a virtual machine manager. It also defines a
reference framework implementation for virtual device emulation, called the
"ACRN Device Model".

The ACRN Hypervisor is a Type 1 reference hypervisor stack, running directly on
the bare-metal hardware, and is suitable for a variety of IoT and embedded
device solutions. The ACRN hypervisor addresses the gap that currently exists
between datacenter hypervisors, and hard partitioning hypervisors. The ACRN
hypervisor architecture partitions the system into different functional
domains, with carefully selected guest OS sharing optimizations for IoT and
embedded devices.

You can find out more about Project ACRN on the `Project ACRN documentation`_
website.
