Ard Biesheuvel f7f2b15c3d arm64: KVM: Expose sanitised cache type register to guest
We currently permit CPUs in the same system to deviate in the exact
topology of the caches, and we subsequently hide this fact from user
space by exposing a sanitised value of the cache type register CTR_EL0.

However, guests running under KVM see the bare value of CTR_EL0, which
could potentially result in issues with, e.g., JITs or other pieces of
code that are sensitive to misreported cache line sizes.

So let's start trapping cache ID instructions if there is a mismatch,
and expose the sanitised version of CTR_EL0 to guests. Note that CTR_EL0
is treated as an invariant to KVM user space, so update that part as well.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
