On CPUs that support S2FWB (Armv8.4+), KVM configures the stage 2 page tables to override the memory attributes of memory accesses, regardless of the stage 1 page table configurations, and also when the stage 1 MMU is turned off. This results in all memory accesses to RAM being cacheable, including during early boot of the guest. On CPUs without this feature, memory accesses were non-cacheable during boot until the guest turned on the stage 1 MMU, and we had to detect when the guest turned on the MMU, such that we could invalidate all cache entries and ensure a consistent view of memory with the MMU turned on. When the guest turned on the caches, we would call stage2_flush_vm() from kvm_toggle_cache(). However, stage2_flush_vm() walks all the stage 2 tables, and calls __kvm_flush-dcache_pte, which on a system with S2FWB does ... absolutely nothing. We can avoid that whole song and dance, and simply not set TVM when creating a VM on a system that has S2FWB.
