Hi guys,

In preparation for nested virtualization where we are going to have more
than a single VMID per VM, let's factor out the VMID data into a
separate VMID data structure and change the VMID allocator to operate on
this new structure instead of using a struct kvm.

This also means that udate_vttbr now becomes update_vmid, and that the
vttbr itself is generated on the fly based on the stage 2 page table
base address and the vmid.

We cache the physical address of the pgd when allocating the pgd to
avoid doing the calculation on every entry to the guest and to avoid
calling into potentially non-hyp-mapped code from hyp/EL2.

If we wanted to merge the VMID allocator with the arm64 ASID allocator
at some point in the future, it should actually become easier to do that
after this patch.
Note that to avoid mapping the kvm_vmid_bits variable into hyp, we
simply forego the masking of the vmid value in kvm_get_vttbr and rely on
update_vmid to always assign a valid vmid value (within the supported
range).

(32bits version is the same ... but I guess there is nowhere to put it!)

Where did this go? (escaped during a turbulent rebase?)

This removes the only caller of kvm_vttbr_baddr_mask()... It looks like this is
a safety check that the stage2-pgd is correctly aligned when the IPA size, and
thus size of the top level entry can by set by user-space.

... or is it unnecessary if alloc_pages_exact() can only return naturally
aligned groups of pages? (which I haven't checked)

Keeping it sounds like a good thing to have in case we accidentally merge
stage2/host-stage1 pgd's somewhere down the line.

(Suzuki suggested it would make more sense in kvm_alloc_stage2_pgd(), where we
could fail vm creation, instead of BUG()ing).

(this was added by e55cac5bf2a9c ("kvm: arm/arm64: Prepare for VM specific
stage2 translations"), the bulk of the logic is in 595583306434c ("kvm: arm64:
Dynamic configuration of VTTBR mask"))
