Subject: KVM: ARM: vgic: Fix the overlap check action about setting the GICD & GICC base address.
From: Haibin Wang <[email protected]>
commit 30c2117085bc4e05d091cee6eba79f069b41a9cd upstream.
Currently below check in vgic_ioaddr_overlap will always succeed, because the vgic dist base and vgic cpu base are still kept UNDEF after initialization. The code as follows will be return forever.
if (IS_VGIC_ADDR_UNDEF(dist) || IS_VGIC_ADDR_UNDEF(cpu))
return 0;So, before invoking the vgic_ioaddr_overlap, it needs to set the corresponding base address firstly.
