It's not obvious to me that VTCR_EL2.T0SZ is a per-vm thing, today the size of the IPA
space comes from the VMM, its not a hardware/compile-time property. Where does the vEL2's
T0SZ go? ... but using this for nested guests would 'only' cause a translation fault, it
would still need handling in the emulation code. So making it per-vm should be simpler.

But accessing VTCR is why the stage2_dissolve_p?d() stuff still needs the kvm pointer,
hence the backreference... it might be neater to push the vtcr properties into kvm_s2_mmu
that way you could drop the kvm backref, and only things that take vm-wide locks would
need the kvm pointer. But I don't think it matters.


I think I get it. I can't see anything that should be the other vm/vcpu pointer.

What does __tlb_switch_to_host() need the kvm_s2_mmu for?

Does this need the vcpu in the future?
Its the odd one out, the other tlb functions here take the s2_mmu, or nothing.
We only use the s2_mmu here.

The comment above this function still has '@kvm:	pointer to kvm structure.'

Wouldn't something manipulating a memslot have to mess with a set of kvm_s2_mmu once this
is all assembled?
stage2_unmap_memslot() takes struct kvm, it seems odd to pass one kvm_s2_mmu here.

Does this error message still make sense?

The comment above this function still ... you get the picture.
