[PATCH 0/5] KVM: arm64: Restrict host hypercalls when pKVM is enabled

Hi folks,

This series restricts the hypercalls available to the KVM host on arm64
when pKVM is enabled so that it is not possible for the host to use them
to replace the EL2 component with something else.

This occurs in two stages: when switching to the pKVM vectors, the stub
hypercalls are removed and then later when pKVM is finalised, the pKVM
init hypercalls are removed.

There are still a few dubious calls remaining in terms of protecting the
guest (e.g. __kvm_adjust_pc) but these will be dealt with later when we
have more VM state at EL2 to play with.

Patches based on -rc2. Feedback welcome.

Cheers,

Will
