Update emulation of guest writes to CP0_Compare for VZ. There are two main differences compared to trap & emulate: - Writing to CP0_Compare in the VZ hardware guest context acks any pending timer, clearing CP0_Cause.TI. If we don't want an ack to take place we must carefully restore the TI bit if it was previously set. - Even with guest timer access disabled in CP0_GuestCtl0.GT, if the guest CP0_Count reaches the guest CP0_Compare the timer interrupt will assert. To prevent this we must set CP0_GTOffset to move the guest CP0_Count out of the way of the new guest CP0_Compare, either before or after depending on whether it is a forwards or backwards change.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
