v2 can be found at [1].
Similar to [2], when trying to run an unprotected VM on FVP with S1PIE enabled
and kvm-arm.mode=protected, writes to PIRE0_EL1 made by the guest in
__cpu_setup() are trapped by KVM and the BUG_ON(!r->access) is hit. That's
because HFGWTR_EL2.nPIRE0_EL1 is an inverse polarity trap and the FGT values for
the unprotected pKVM VCPU weren't being propagated from kvm_arch_vcpu_load().
Couldn't figure out how to run a protected pKVM VM, so that's untested.
Changelog v2->v3:
* Gathered Reviewed-by tags, thanks!
* In patch #2, KVM now calls bad_trap() instead of KVM_BUG(). Also changed patch
subject to match.
