Mark Rutland 257d0aa8e2 KVM: arm64: VHE: Synchronize CPTR trap deactivation
Currently there is no ISB between __deactivate_cptr_traps() disabling
traps that affect EL2 and fpsimd_lazy_switch_to_host() manipulating
registers potentially affected by CPTR traps.

When NV is not in use, this is safe because the relevant registers are
only accessed when guest_owns_fp_regs() && vcpu_has_sve(vcpu), and this
also implies that SVE traps affecting EL2 have been deactivated prior to
__guest_entry().

When NV is in use, a guest hypervisor may have configured SVE traps for
a nested context, and so it is necessary to have an ISB between
__deactivate_cptr_traps() and fpsimd_lazy_switch_to_host().

Due to the current lack of an ISB, when a guest hypervisor enables SVE
traps in CPTR, the host can take an unexpected SVE trap from within
fpsimd_lazy_switch_to_host(), e.g.

Fix this by adding an ISB between __deactivate_traps() and
fpsimd_lazy_switch_to_host().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
