[PATCH 0/3] KVM: arm64: Fix teardown of non-protected VMs with pKVM

[Will Deacon]

Hi folks,

Sashiko continues to throw rocks at me.

This time, it spotted that my fix (introduced in v5 [1] of the pKVM
series) to prevent taking a reference on a VM in the 'is_dying' state
also prevents unsharing of pages shared with a non-protected VM if that
VM is torn down by its VM fd being destroyed, rather than the usual path
via the MMU notifiers.

Rather than send a v6 of the whole series, here are three patches that
apply on top of v5 and fix the issue by (a) preventing teardown of a
referenced VM and (b) allowing some references to be taken on a dying
VM. As an added bonus, this simplifies the locking on the reclaim path
because now a VM reference is enough to stop the page-tables from going
away.

Cheers,

Will
