v2 cover KVM:arm64: Proposed host stage-2 improvements

[apologies for the noise: this is the real thing, please ignore the previous posting... :-(]

Hi all,

Since Quentin's series is pretty close to final, I though that instead of asking for additional rework, I'd have a go at it myself. These patches try to bring some simplifications to the cpufeature duplication that has been introduced between EL1 and EL2.

This whole infrastructure exists for a single reason: making the *sanitised* versions of ID_AA64MMFR{0,1}_EL1 available to EL2. On top of that, the read_ctr macro gets in the way as it needs direct access to arm64_ftr_reg_ctrel0 to cope with ARM64_MISMATCHED_CACHE_TYPE.

This series tackles the latest point first by taking advantage of the fact that with pKVM enabled, late CPUs aren't allowed to boot, and thus that we know the final CTR_EL0 value before KVM starts, no matter whether there is a mismatch or not. We can thus specialise read_ctr to do the right thing without requiring access to the EL1 data structure.

Once that's sorted, we can easily simplify the whole infrastructure to only snapshot the two u64 we need before enabling the protected mode.

Tested on a Synquacer system.

	M.

* From v1:
- Send the *right* branch, and not whatever was in my sandbox...

PATCH v2 1/3 KVM: arm64: Constraint KVM's own __flush_dcache_area to protectected mode

As we are about to specialise KVM's version of __flush_dcache_area via a hack on the read_ctr macro, make sure that we won't ever use KVM's copy of __flush_dcache_area(), as things would otherwise break for late arriving CPUs.

PATCH v2 2/3 KVM: arm64: Generate final CTR_EL0 value when running in Protected mode

In reply to Marc Zyngier

In protected mode, late CPUs are not allowed to boot (enforced by the PSCI relay). We can thus specialise the read_ctr macro to always return a pre-computed, sanitised value.

PATCH v2 3/3 KVM: arm64: Drop the CPU_FTR_REG_HYP_COPY infrastructure

In reply to Marc Zyngier

Now that the read_ctr macro has been specialised for nVHE, the whole CPU_FTR_REG_HYP_COPY infrastrcture looks completely overengineered.

Simplify it by populating the two u64 quantities (MMFR0 and 1) that the hypervisor need.
