Jianyong Wu 6dbc13627a devices: Emulate debug I/O based on pl011
To emulate debug I/O port on arm64, we need trap from guest to VMM.
Generally, there are 3 ways to go:
1) execute a privilege intruction like "wfi";
2) access a system register;
3) access device MMIO region;
However, 1) and 2) often handled in kvm, thus 3) it's the choice.

There maybe lots of repeated work and enlarge the size of clh to develop
a new device, so it's better to reuse the current device. Luckily, I
find that pl011 is the eariest device initialized in kernel and, there
is reserved region in it which we can reuse for emulating debug I/O.
