[PATCH 2/2 v2] ARM: KVM: user_mem_abort: support stage 2 MMIO page mapping

From: Kim Phillips <kim.phillips at linaro.org>

A userspace process can map device MMIO memory via VFIO or /dev/mem,
e.g., for platform device passthrough support in QEMU.

During early development, we found the PAGE_S2 memory type being used
for MMIO mappings.  This patch corrects that by using the more strongly
ordered memory type for device MMIO mappings: PAGE_S2_DEVICE.

Hi, here's a v2, upon request:

- rebased onto today's mainline ToT
- mmu.o-build tested only (ToT build doesn't complete)
- made commit text less terse
- added Christoffer's ack

Cheers,

Kim
