KVM (on ARMv8.0) and pKVM (on all revisions of the architecture) uses the split hypervisor model that makes the EL2 code more or less standalone. For this, we totally ignore the VHE mode and stick with the good old v8.0 EL2 setup. This is all good, but means that the EL2 code is limited in what it can do with its own address space. This series proposes to remove this limitation and to allow VHE to be used even with the split hypervisor model. This has some potential isolation benefits[1], and *maybe* allow deviant systems to eventually run pKVM. It introduce a new "mode" for KVM called hVHE, in reference to the nVHE mode, and indicating that only the hypervisor is using VHE. Note that this is all this series does. No effort is made to improve the VA space management, which will be the subject of another series if this one ever makes it. This has been lightly tested on a M1 box, with no measurable change in performance. Thanks, M.
