Oliver Upton f587661f21 KVM: arm64: Don't split hugepages outside of MMU write lock 
It is possible to take a stage-2 permission fault on a page larger than
PAGE_SIZE. For example, when running a guest backed by 2M HugeTLB, KVM
eagerly maps at the largest possible block size. When dirty logging is
enabled on a memslot, KVM does *not* eagerly split these 2M stage-2
mappings and instead clears the write bit on the pte.

Since dirty logging is always performed at PAGE_SIZE granularity, KVM
lazily splits these 2M block mappings down to PAGE_SIZE in the stage-2
fault handler. This operation must be done under the write lock. Since
commit f783ef1c0e ("KVM: arm64: Add fast path to handle permission
relaxation during dirty logging"), the stage-2 fault handler
conditionally takes the read lock on permission faults with dirty
logging enabled. To that end, it is possible to split a 2M block mapping
while only holding the read lock.

The problem is demonstrated by running kvm_page_table_test with 2M
anonymous HugeTLB, which splats like so:

  WARNING: CPU: 5 PID: 15276 at arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/pgtable.c:153 stage2_map_walk_leaf+0x124/0x158

Fix the issue by only acquiring the read lock if the guest faulted on a
PAGE_SIZE granule w/ dirty logging enabled. Add a WARN to catch locking
bugs in future changes.

README 

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 Restructured Text 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.
