Expose the maximum physical address size supported by the host
for a VM. This could be later used by the userspace to choose the
appropriate size for a given VM. The limit is determined as the
minimum of actual CPU limit, the kernel limit (i.e, either 48 or 52)
and the stage2 page table support limit (which is 40bits at the moment).
For backward compatibility, we support a minimum of 40bits. The limit
will be lifted as we add support for the stage2 to support the host
kernel PA limit.
This value may be different from what is exposed to the VM via
CPU ID registers. The limit only applies to the stage2 page table.

+4.113 KVM_ARM_GET_MAX_VM_PHYS_SHIFT
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: arm, arm64
+Type: system ioctl
+Parameters: none
+Returns: log2(Maximum physical address space size) supported by the
+hyperviosr.
+
+This ioctl can be used to identify the maximum physical address space size
+supported by the hypervisor. The returned value indicates the maximum size
+of the address that can be resolved by the stage2 translation table on
+arm/arm64. On arm64, the value is decided based on the host kernel
+configuration and the system wide safe value of ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1:PARange.
+This may not match the value exposed to the VM in CPU ID registers.
