KVM: arm64: Prepare the creation of s1 mappings at EL2
When memory protection is enabled, the EL2 code needs the ability to
create and manage its own page-table. To do so, introduce a new set of
hypercalls to bootstrap a memory management system at EL2.
This leads to the following boot flow in nVHE Protected mode:
1. the host allocates memory for the hypervisor very early on, using
the memblock API;
2. the host creates a set of stage 1 page-table for EL2, installs the
EL2 vectors, and issues the __pkvm_init hypercall;
3. during __pkvm_init, the hypervisor re-creates its stage 1 page-table
and stores it in the memory pool provided by the host;
4. the hypervisor then extends its stage 1 mappings to include a
vmemmap in the EL2 VA space, hence allowing to use the buddy
allocator introduced in a previous patch;
5. the hypervisor jumps back in the idmap page, switches from the
host-provided page-table to the new one, and wraps up its
initialization by enabling the new allocator, before returning to
the host.
6. the host can free the now unused page-table created for EL2, and
will now need to issue hypercalls to make changes to the EL2 stage 1
mappings instead of modifying them directly.
Note that for the sake of simplifying the review, this patch focuses on
the hypervisor side of things. In other words, this only implements the
new hypercalls, but does not make use of them from the host yet. The
host-side changes will follow in a subsequent patch.
