[PATCH v5 1/6] KVM: arm64: Correctly treat writes to OSLSR_EL1 as undefined

From: Oliver Upton <hidden>
Date: 2022-02-03 17:44:40
Also in: kvm, kvmarm
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), kernel virtual machine for arm64 (kvm/arm64), the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Marc Zyngier, Oliver Upton, Linus Torvalds

Writes to OSLSR_EL1 are UNDEFINED and should never trap from EL1 to
EL2, but the kvm trap handler for OSLSR_EL1 handles writes via
ignore_write(). This is confusing to readers of code, but should have
no functional impact.

For clarity, use write_to_read_only() rather than ignore_write(). If a
trap is unexpectedly taken to EL2 in violation of the architecture, this
will WARN_ONCE() and inject an undef into the guest.
