Subject: KVM: arm/arm64: vgic: Avoid injecting reserved IRQ numbers

From: Marc Zyngier <[email protected]>

commit 4839ddc27b7212ec58874f62c97da7400c8523be upstream.

Commit fd1d0ddf2ae9 (KVM: arm/arm64: check IRQ number on userland injection) rightly limited the range of interrupts userspace can inject in a guest, but failed to consider the (unlikely) case where a guest is configured with 1024 interrupts.

In this case, interrupts ranging from 1020 to 1023 are unuseable, as they have a special meaning for the GIC CPU interface.

Make sure that these number cannot be used as an IRQ. Also delete a redundant (and similarily buggy) check in kvm_set_irq.
