Hi,

This is the first part of the series which enables dumping of the guest
stage-2 pagetables. The support for dumping the host stage-2 pagetables
which is pKVM specific will be part of a follow-up series as per the
feedback received in v4. 

When CONFIG_PTDUMP_STAGE2_DEBUGFS is enabled, ptdump registers 
'/sys/debug/kvm/<guest_id>/stage2_page_tables' entry with debugfs
upon guest creation. This allows userspace tools (eg. cat) to dump the
stage-2 pagetables by reading the registered file.

Reading the debugfs file shows stage-2 memory ranges in following format:
<IPA range> <size> <descriptor type> <access permissions> <mem_attributes>

Below is the output of a guest stage-2 pagetable mappings running under
Qemu:

Changelog:
 v4 -> current_version:
 * refactorization: split the series into two parts as per the feedback
   received from Oliver. Introduce the base support which allows dumping
   of the guest stage-2 pagetables.
 
 * removed the *ops* struct wrapper built on top of the file_ops and
   simplify the ptdump interface access.
 
 * keep the page table walker away from the ptdump specific code

  v3 -> current_version:
  * refactorization: moved all the **KVM** specific components under
    kvm/ as suggested by Oliver. Introduced a new file
    arm64/kvm/ptdump.c which handled the second stage translation.
    re-used only the display portion from mm/ptdump.c

  * pagetable snapshot creation now uses memory donated from the host.
    The memory is no longer shared with the host as this can pose a security
    risk if the host has access to manipulate the pagetable copy while
    the hypervisor iterates it.

  * fixed a memory leak: while memory was used from the memcache for
    building the snapshot pagetable, it was no longer giving back the
    pages to the host for freeing. A separate array was introduced to
    keep track of the pages allocated from the memcache.

  v2 -> v3:
  * register the stage-2 debugfs entry for the host under
    /sys/debug/kvm/host_stage2_page_tables and in
    /sys/debug/kvm/<guest_id>/stage2_page_tables for guests.

  * don't use a static array for parsing the attributes description,
    generate it dynamically based on the number of pagetable levels

  * remove the lock that was guarding the seq_file private inode data,
    and keep the data private to the open file session.

  * minor fixes & renaming of CONFIG_NVHE_EL2_PTDUMP_DEBUGFS to
    CONFIG_PTDUMP_STAGE2_DEBUGFS

  v1 -> v2:
  * use the stage-2 pagetable walker for dumping descriptors instead of
    the one provided by ptdump.

  * support for guests pagetables dumping under VHE/nVHE non-protected

Thanks,
