Without the cpu_synchronize_state() call, HVF never knows that the CPU
state is actually dirty. I guess it could as well live in cpu_reset()
somewhere, but we have to get the state switched over to dirty one way
or another.
One interesting thing to note here is that the CPU actually comes up in
"dirty" after init. But init is done on realization already. I'm not
sure why we lose the dirty state in between that and the reset.
Yeah, it sounds like you need to figure out where the dirty
to not-dirty transitions ought to be happening rather than
just fudging things here...
When init is complete (system is ready to launch), the CPU state is
pushed to HVF and dirty is set to false. So by design, a normal
cpu_reset doesn't have vcpu_dirty set.
How about this patch instead?

hvf: arm: Mark CPU as dirty on reset
When clearing internal state of a CPU, we should also make sure
that HVF
knows about it and can push the new values down to vcpu state.
Make sure that with HVF enabled, we tell it that it should synchronize
CPU state on next entry after a reset.
This fixes PSCI handling, because now newly pushed state such as X0
and
PC on remote CPU enablement also get pushed into HVF.
