KVM: ARM: Initial skeleton to compile KVM support
Targets KVM support for Cortex A-15 processors. Contains all the framework components, make files, header files, some tracing functionality, and basic user space API. Only supported core is Cortex-A15 for now. Most functionality is in arch/arm/kvm/* or arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_*.h.
