When testing a kernel with commit a5905d6af4 ("KVM: arm64:
Allow SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_3 to be discovered and migrated")
get-reg-list output
vregs: Number blessed registers: 234
vregs: Number registers: 238
vregs: There are 1 new registers.
Consider adding them to the blessed reg list with the following lines:
KVM_REG_ARM_FW_REG(3),
vregs: PASS
...
That output inspired two changes: 1) add the new register to the
blessed list and 2) explain why "Number registers" is actually four
larger than "Number blessed registers" (on the system used for
testing), even though only one register is being stated as new.
The reason is that some registers are host dependent and they get
filtered out when comparing with the blessed list. The system
used for the test apparently had three filtered registers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
