Why isn't this static, since the address is passed via the
kvm_nvhe_init_params block?

I have the same feeling as with the overflow stack. This is
potentially a huge amount of memory: on my test box, with 64k pages,
this is a whole 10MB that I give away for something that is only a
debug facility.
Can this somehow be limited? I don't see it being less than a page as
a problem, as the memory is always shared back with EL1 in the case of
pKVM (and normal KVM doesn't have that problem anyway).
Alternatively, this should be restricted to pKVM. With normal nVHE,
the host should be able to parse the EL2 stack directly with some
offsetting. Actually, this is probably the best option.
Thanks,
M.
