check_base_s2_limits() checks the validity of SL0 and inputsize against
ia_size (inputsize again!) but the pseudocode from DDI0487 G.a
AArch64.TranslationTableWalk() says that we should check against the
implemented PA size.
We would otherwise fail to walk S2 with a valid configuration. E.g.,
granule size = 4KB, inputsize = 40 bits, initial lookup level = 0 (no
concatenation) on a system with 48 bits PA range supported is allowed by
architecture.
Fix it by obtaining PA size by kvm_get_pa_bits(). Note that
kvm_get_pa_bits() returns the fixed limit now and should eventually reflect
the per VM PARange (one day!). Given that the configured PARange should not
be greater that kvm_ipa_limit, it at least fixes the problem described
above.
While at it, inject a level 0 translation fault to guest if
check_base_s2_limits() fails, as per the pseudocode.
