Subject: arm64: KVM: trap VM system registers until MMU and caches are ON

From: Marc Zyngier <[email protected]>

commit 4d44923b17bff283c002ed961373848284aaff1b upstream.

In order to be able to detect the point where the guest enables its MMU and caches, trap all the VM related system registers.

Once we see the guest enabling both the MMU and the caches, we can go back to a saner mode of operation, which is to leave these registers in complete control of the guest.
