So I agree with vttbr_baddr_mask being determined dynamically. I also
agree with setting TCR_EL2.PS at run-time but the VTCR_EL2.T0SZ
determines the input of the stage 2 translation. That's a KVM
configuration about what IPA size it provides to the guests (and
platform model it intends to support) and it doesn't need to be the same
as the physical address range.

It should be u64 as it truncates the top 32 bits of the mask.

This mask should always be 64-bit as it relates to the physical address
which is 64-bit even on arm32 with LPAE enabled (same with the
get_vttbr_baddr_mask() return type above).

The PS = 2 comment was misleading as it doesn't seem to be set here. But
why dropping T0SZ? That gives the input address for stage 2 (IPA), so
whether KVM exposes a 40-bit IPA to guests is independent of whether the
kernel would use 48-bit VA.

Again, why do we care about this w.r.t. the IPA?

So what you try to do here is making IPA as wide as PA. Do we actually
care about this? I don't think we do, whether KVM presents a 48-bit IPA
to the guest should be a KVM configuration independent of the hardware
PA range.
