3.16.55-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Marc Zyngier <[email protected]> commit acfb3b883f6d6a4b5d27ad7fdded11f6a09ae6dd upstream. KVM doesn't follow the SMCCC when it comes to unimplemented calls, and inject an UNDEF instead of returning an error. Since firmware calls are now used for security mitigation, they are becoming more common, and the undef is counter productive. Instead, let's follow the SMCCC which states that -1 must be returned to the caller when getting an unknown function number.
