Early Cortex-A76 suffer from an erratum that can result in invalid TLBs when the CPU speculatively executes an AT instruction in the middle of a guest world switch, while the guest virtual memory configuration is in an inconsistent state. We handle this issue by mandating the use of VHE and making sure that the guest context is fully installed before switching HCR_EL2.TGE to zero. This ensures that a speculated AT instruction is either executed on the host context (TGE set) or the guest context (TGE clear), and that there is no intermediate state.
