[PATCH v4 04/15] arm64: errata: Add detection for TRBE write to out-of-range

Arm Neoverse-N2 and Cortex-A710 cores are affected by an erratum where the
trbe, under some circumstances, might write upto 64bytes to an address after
the Limit as programmed by the TRBLIMITR_EL1.LIMIT. This might -
- Corrupt a page in the ring buffer, which may corrupt trace from a
previous session, consumed by userspace.
- Hit the guard page at the end of the vmalloc area and raise a fault.
To keep the handling simpler, we always leave the last page from the
range, which TRBE is allowed to write. This can be achieved by ensuring
that we always have more than a PAGE worth space in the range, while
calculating the LIMIT for TRBE. And then the LIMIT pointer can be adjusted
to leave the PAGE (TRBLIMITR.LIMIT -= PAGE_SIZE), out of the TRBE range
while enabling it. This makes sure that the TRBE will only write to an area
within its allowed limit (i.e, [head-head+size]) and we do not have to handle
address faults within the driver.
